In this paper, Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) is first used to extract semantic knowledge from a given document, all question paragraphs are identified, an automatic text segmentation approach analogous to TextTiling is exploited to improve the precision of correlating question paragraphs and answer paragraphs, and finally some “important” sentences are extracted from the generic content and the ques-tion-answer pairs to generate a complete summary. Experimental results showed that our approach is highly efficient and improves significantly the coherence of the summary while not compromising informativeness.展开更多

文摘The paper presents the text-linguistic concepts on which the analysis of textual structure is based including text and discourse,coherence and cohesive.In addition we try to discover different manifestations of text between ET and CT,including different coherent structures.
