Generally a document contains several topics rather than a single one. Summaries created by human beings tend to cover several topics to give the readers an overall idea about the original document. Hence we can expect that a summary containing sentences from better part of the topic spectrum should make a better summary. PLSI has proven to be an effective method in topic detection.

| "text": "The advent of the Internet has made a wealth of textual data available to everyone. Finding a specific piece of information in this mass of data can be compared with \"finding a small needle in a large heap of straw.\" Search engines do a remarkable job in providing a subset of the original data set which is generally a lot smaller than the original pile of data. However the subset provided by the search engines is still substantial in size. Users need to manually scan through all the information contained in the list of results provided by the search engines until the desired information is found. This makes automatic summarization the task of great importance as the users can then just read the summaries and obtain an overview of the document, hence saving a lot of time during the process.", | |

| "text": "Several methods have been proposed in the field of automatic text summarization. In general two approaches have been taken, extract-based summarization and abstract-based summarization. While extract-based summarization focuses in finding relevant sentences from the original document and using the exact sentences as a summary, abstractbased summaries may contain the words or phrases not present in the original document (Mani, 1999) . The summarization task can also be classified as query-oriented or generic. The query-oriented summary presents text that contains information relevant to the given query, and the generic summarization method presents the summary that gives overall sense of the document (Goldstein et al, 1998) . In this paper, we will focus on extract-based generic single-document summarization.", | |

| "text": "In the recent years graph based techinques have become very popular in automatic text summariza-tion (Erkan and Radev, 2004) , (Mihalcea, 2005) . These techniques view each sentence as a node of a graph and the similarities between each sentences as the links between those sentences. Generally the links are retained only if the similarity values between the sentences exceed a pre-determined threshold value; the links are discarded otherwise. The sentences are then ranked using some graph ranking algorithms such as HITS (Kleinberg, 1998) or PageRank (Brin and Page, 1998) etc. However the graph ranking algorithms tend to give the highest ranking to the sentences related to one central topic in the document. So if a document contains several topics, these algorithms will only choose one central topic and rank the sentences related to those topic higher than any other topics, ignoring the importance of other topics present. This will create summaries that may not cover the overall topics of the document and hence cannot be considered generic enough. We will focus on that problem and present a way to create better generic summary of the document using PLSI (Hofmann 1999) which covers several topics in the document and is closer to the summaries created by human beings. The benchmarking done using DUC 2 2002 data set showed that our technique improves over other proposed methods in terms of ROUGE 1 evaluation score.", | |

Similarity is measured using cosine similarity of the word vectors, and if the similarity value is more than certain threshold value the link is kept otherwise the links are removed. PageRank is an algorithm which has been successfully applied by Google search engine to rank the search results.

But as illustrated in Figure 1 , another eigenvector which is slightly smaller than the principal eigenvector may exist. In documents, each community represented by the eigenvectors can be considered as a topic present in the document. As these algorithms tend to ignore the influence of eigenvectors other than largest one, the sentences related to topics other than a central one can be ignored, and creating the possibility for the inclusion of redundant sentences as well. This kind of summary cannot be considered as a generic one. Figure 1 . In algorithms like HITS and PageRank only the principal eigenvectors are considered.

It is thought that the similarities between the documents can be more reliably estimated in the reduced latent space representation than original representation. LSA has been applied in areas of text retrieval (Deerwester et al., 1990) and automatic text summarization (Gong and Liu, 2001) . LSA is based on Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) of m\u00d7n term-document matrix A. Each entry in A, A ij , represents the frequency of term i in document j. Using SVD, the matrix A is decomposed into U,S,V as, A=USV T U=Matrix of n left singular vectors S=diag(\u03c3 i )=Diagonal matrix of singular values where with \u03c3 i \u2265 \u03c3 i+1 for all i.

| "text": "Probabilistic Latent Semantic Indexing (PLSI) (Hofmann, 1999 ) is a new approach to automated document indexing, and is based on a statistical latent class model for factor analysis of count data. PLSI is considered to be a probabilistic analogue of Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI), which is a document indexing technique based on LSA. Despite the success of LSI, it is not devoid of deficits. The main argument against LSI is pointed to its unsatisfactory statistical foundations. In contrast, PLSI has solid statistical foundations, as it is based on the maximum likelihood principle and defines a proper generative model of data. Hofmann (1999) has shown that PLSI indeed performs better than LSI in several text retrieval experiments. The factor representation obtained in PLSI allows us to classify sentences according to the topics they belong to. We will use this ability of PLSI to generate summary of document that are more generic in nature by picking sentences from different topics.", | |

| "text": "After creating summaries we evaluated summaries using ROUGE. ROUGE has been the standard benchmarking technique for summarization tasks adopted by Document Understanding Conference (DUC). We also compared our results with other summarization methods such as LexPageRank (Erkan and Radev, 2004) and Gong and Liu's (2001) LSA-based method. We also compared the results with HITS based method which is similar to Lex-PageRank but instead of PageRank, HITS is used as ranking algorithm (Klienberg 1998).The results are listed in Table 1 . We used five measures for evaluation, Rouge-L Rouge1, Rouge2, Rouge-SU4 and F 1 . These methods are standard methods used in DUC evaluation Table 1 : Evaluation of summaries The table shows the score of summaries generated using methods described in section 4.3. On the table n means number of topics into which the document has been divided into. Control parameter B from (4) was fixed to 0.75 in this case. tests and these schemes are known to be very effect tive to calculate the correlation between the summaries. All of the scores can be calculated using Rouge package. Rouge is based on N-gram statistics (Lin and Hovy, 2003) . Rouge has been known to highly correlate with human evaluations. According to (Lin and Hovy, 2003) , among the methods implemented in ROUGE, ROUGE-N (N=1,2), ROUGE-L, ROUGE-S are relatively simple and work very well even when the length of summary is quite short, which is mostly the case in single document summarization. ROUGE-N, ROUGE-L and ROUGE-S are all basically the recall scores. As DUC keeps the length of the summaries constant recall is the main evaluation criterion. Fmeasure is also shown in the table as a reference parameter, but since we kept the length of our summaries constant, too, the ROUGE-L, ROUGE-N and ROUGE-S scores carry the highest weight. As seen on Table 1 , the scores gained by PROC1 and PROC2 are less than others. This is mainly because the sentences chosen by these methods were simply chosen from one topic. As PROC3 and PROC4 use sentences from several topics the score of PROC3 and PROC4 were better than PROC1 and PROC2. For methods PROC3 and PROC4 we took the summaries for topics 2 through 6 and found that the method performed well when the number of topics was kept between 2 to 4. But the difference was very small, and in general the performance was quite stable. We also compared our results to other methods such as LexPageRank and LSA and found that PROC3 performed quite well when compared to those methods. LexPageRank was marginally better in F-measure (F 1 ) but PROC3 got best recall scores. PROC3 also outperformed LSA by 0.16 in recall (ROUGE-L) scores. Comparison to HITS also shows PROC3 more advantageous.", | |

| "text": "In this paper we have argued that choosing sentences from multiple topics makes a better generic summary. It is especially true if we compare our method to graph based ranking methods like HITS and PageRank. Richardson and Domingos (2002) have mentioned that both HITS and PageRank suffer from the topic drift. This not only makes these algorithms susceptible for exclusion of important sentences outside the main topic but miss the sentences from main topic as well. Cohn and Chang (2001) also have shown similar results for HITS. They (Cohn and Chang) have shown that the central topic identified by HITS (principal eigenvector) may not always correspond to the most authoritative topic. The main topic in fact may be represented by smaller eigenvectors rather than the principal one. They also show that the topic segre- gation in HITS is quite extreme so if we just use principal eigenvector, first there is a chance of being drifted away from the main topic hence producing low quality summary and there is also a chance of missing out other important topics due to the extreme segregation of communities. In PLSI the segregation of topics is not as extreme. If a sentence is related to several topics the sentence can attain high rank in many topics. We can see from the scores that the performance of graph based algorithms like LexPageRank and HITS are not as good as our method. This can be attributed to the fact that the graph based summarizers take only a central topic under consideration. The method that proved most successful in our summarization was the one where we extracted the sentences that had the most influence in the document. We used the tempered version of EM-algorithm (4) in our summarization task. We evaluated the effect of tempering factor B in performance of summarization for PROC3. We found that that the tempering factor did not influence the results by a big margin. We conducted our experiment using values of B from 0.1 through 1.0 incrementing each step by 0.1. The results are shown in Figure 2 . In the results shown in Table 1 the value for tempering factor was set to 0.75.", | |

LSA can also be used to summarize documents in similar manner by extracting sentences from several topics, but our experiments showed that PLSI performs better than LSA.
