Weighted Graph Embedding Feature with Bi-Directional Long Short-Term Memory Classifier for Multi-Document Text Summarization

Abstract

In this digital era, there is a tremendous increase in the volume of data, which adds difficulties to the person who utilizes particular applications, such as websites, email, and news. Text summarization targets to reduce the complexity of obtaining statistics from the websites as it compresses the textual document to a short summary without affecting the relevant information. The crucial step in multi-document summarization is obtaining a relationship between the cross-sentence. However, the conventional methods fail to determine the inter-sentence relationship, especially in long documents. This research develops a graph-based neural network to attain an inter-sentence relationship. The significant step in the proposed multi-document text summarization model is forming the weighted graph embedding features. Furthermore, the weighted graph embedding features are utilized to evaluate the relationship between the document’s words and sentences. Finally, the bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) classifier is utilized to summarize the multi-document text summarization. The experimental analysis uses the three standard datasets, the Daily Mail dataset, Document Understanding Conference (DUC) 2002, and Document Understanding Conference (DUC) 2004 dataset. The experimental outcome demonstrates that the proposed weighted graph embedding feature + BiLSTM model exceeds all the conventional methods with Precision, Recall, and F1 score of 0.5352, 0.6296, and 0.5429, respectively.
