BBN/UMD at DUC-2004: Topiary
David M. Zajic, Bonnie Jean Dorr, Richard M. Schwartz · 2004
This paper reports our results at DUC2004 and describes our approach, implemented in a system called Topiary. We will show that the combination of linguistically motivated sentence compression with statistically selected topic terms performs better than either alone, according to some automatic summary evaluation measures.
