Abstract
Automatic document summarization is always attractive to computer science researchers. A novel approach is proposed to address this topic and mainly focuses on the summarization of plain documents. Conventional summarization methods do not fully use the inter-sentence relevance that is not preserved during the processing. In contrast, to tackle the problem and incorporate the latent relations among sentences, our approach constructs relevance structures at sentence-level for plain documents and each sentence is scored with a significance value. Accordingly, important sentences "present" themselves automatically, and the summary paragraph is then generated by selecting top-k scored sentences. Convergence of the algorithm is proved, and experiment, which is conducted on two data sets (DUC 2006 and DUC 2007), shows that the proposed model gives convincing results.
