Centrifuser

Developed by Min-Yen Kan
Centrifuser is a domain- and genre-specific multidocument summarization system. It builds both extract based summary as well as indicative document cluster summaries. The extract summary gives a high level overview of the query topic suitable for browsers. The indicative document cluster summaries differentiate the documents from each other as much as possible to route users to particular documents that can meet their underspecified information needs. Centrifuser was developed as part of the NSF's DLI 2 initiative and focuses on patient health care documents.

Annotated Bibliography Corpus

Developed by Min-Yen Kan
We have collected 2000 annotated bibliography entries from the web and put them into a standardized XML format. We have further annotated 100 of these entries with semantic tags that discuss the types of document-derived and metadata features that play a role in these summaries. Annotated bibliography entries are a good source for doing research on corpus-based summarization; as they provide information about what to include and how to write and stylize indicative summaries.
