New methods in automatic extracting

by H. P. Edmundson - Journal of the Association for Computing Machinery , 1969

"... ABSTRACT. This paper describes new methods of automatically extracting documents for screening purposes, i.e. the computer selection of sentences having the greatest potential for conveying to the reader the substance of the document.
