Extractive Multi-document Text Summarization Leveraging Hybrid Semantic Similarity Measures

Because of the massive amount of textual information accessible today, automated extraction text summarization is one of the most extensively used ways to organize the information. The summarization mechanisms help to extract the important topics of data from a given set of documents. Extractive summarization is one method for providing a representative summary of a text by choosing the most pertinent sentences from the original text. Extractive multi -document text summarization systems' primary goal is to decrease the quantity of textual information in a document collection by concentrating on the most crucial subjects and removing irrelevant material. In the previous research, there are several methods such as term-weighting schemes and similarity metrics used for constructing an automated summary system. There are few studies that look at the performance of combining various Semantic similarity and word weighting techniques in automatic text summarization. We evaluated numerous semantic similarity metrics in extractive multi-document text summarization in this research. In the extractive multi-document text summarization discussed in this research, we looked at numerous semantic similarity metrics. ROUGE metrics have been used to evaluate the model performance in experiments using DUC datasets. Even more, the combination formed by different semantic similarity measures obtained the highest results in comparison with the other models.
