Summarization Evaluation Using Transformed Basic Elements.
Stephen Tratz, Eduard H. Hovy · 2008
This paper describes BEwTE (Basic Elements with Transformations for Evaluation), an automatic system for summarization evaluation. BEwTE is a new, more sophisticated implementation of the BE framework that uses transformations to match BEs (minimallength syntactically wellformed units) that are lexically different yet semantically similar. We demonstrate the effectiveness of BEwTE using DUC and TAC datasets. 1
