Automatic Text Summarization with a Reduced Vocabulary Using Continuous Space Vectors

In this paper, we propose a new method that uses continuous vectors to map words to a reduced vocabulary, in the context of Automatic Text Summarization (ATS). This method is evaluated on the MultiLing corpus by the ROUGE evaluation measures with four ATS systems. Our experiments show that the reduced vocabulary improves the performance of state-of-the-art systems.
