Production of fixed length summaries for English

This summarizer uses sentence reduction to squeeze as many sentences as possible into a summary which is 10% of the original documentin size.


Examples of 10% length summaries from the Tipster evaluation Spring '98.

These summaries use sentence reduction and often do some damage to the sense of the text. They are intended to support rapid document classification so this may not be too important. See what you think.
