Systems and methods for sentence based interactive topic-based text summarization
First Claim
16. A system for determining sentence based interactive topic-based text summaries comprising:
- an input/output circuit for receiving, a selected sentence constituent based summary type, a selected text;
a processor that retrieves the selected text from the input/output circuit, segments the text and determines a text segment to summarize;
a statistical measure determining circuit for determining a statistical measure of the at least one determined segment; and
wherein the processor determines a discrete sentence based interactive topic-based text summary for at least one determined segment based on the statistical measure of the segment.

Abstract
Techniques for determining sentence based interactive topic-based summarization are provided. A text to be summarized is segmented. Discrete keyword, key-phrase, n-gram, sentence and other sentence constituent based summaries are generated based on statistical measures for each text segment. Interactive topic-based summaries are displayed with human sensible omitted text indicators such as alternate colors, fonts, sounds, tactile elements or other human sensible display characteristics useful in indicating omitted text. Individual and/or combinations of discrete keyword, key-phrase, n-gram, sentence, noun phrase and sentence constituent based summaries are dynamically displayed to provide an overview of topic and subtopic development within a text. A hierarchical and interactive display of texts based on the use of discrete sentence constituent based summaries which associates expansible and contractible displayed text provides contextualized access to an interactive topic-based text summary and to an original text.
