An Entity-Focused Approach to Generating Company Descriptions
Gavin Saldanha, Or Biran, Kathleen R. McKeown, Alfio Gliozzo · 2016
Finding quality descriptions on the web, such as those found in Wikipedia articles, of newer companies can be difficult: search engines show many pages with varying relevance, while multi-document summarization algorithms find it difficult to distinguish between core facts and other information such as news stories.In this paper, we propose an entity-focused, hybrid generation approach to automatically produce descriptions of previously unseen companies, and show that it outperforms a strong summarization baseline.
