Abstract

The methods using supervised algorithms for generic document summarization are time-consuming because they need a set training data and associated summaries. We propose a new unsupervised method using the Non-negative Semantic Variable to select the sentences for automatic generic document summarization. The proposed method selects meaningful sentences for generic document summarization. Besides, it can improve the quality of generic summaries because the extracted sentences are well covered with the major topics of document. And also it doesn't need a set training data because it is an unsupervised method. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves better performance the other method.
