Supervised Machine Learning for Extractive Query Based Summarisation of Biomedical Data

WS 2018  ·  M Kaur, eep, Diego Moll{\'a} ·

The automation of text summarisation of biomedical publications is a pressing need due to the plethora of information available online. This paper explores the impact of several supervised machine learning approaches for extracting multi-document summaries for given queries. In particular, we compare classification and regression approaches for query-based extractive summarisation using data provided by the BioASQ Challenge. We tackled the problem of annotating sentences for training classification systems and show that a simple annotation approach outperforms regression-based summarisation.
