Abstract

Generation of linguistic summaries that are compact, short and relevant to the user remains an open challenge. In this paper, we propose a novel method for improving the generation of linguistic summaries inspired by the a-priori algorithm and the degree of appropriateness. The method generates all true summaries with related predicates in the summarizer, resulting in a small set of linguistic summaries, whose presentation to the user is compact. We tested our method on three real world data sets. The results indicate that our proposed approach is a good alternative to previous methods suggested for generating linguistic summaries.
