Abstract

See full text

A text document is segmented into word and sentence information when the document is first presented and indexed. A memory stream is generated for the document. The memory stream includes document title information, word offsets, sentence offsets, the alternate list, and the contents of the document. The memory stream is used to determine which sentences in the document include query terms. The sentences that include query terms are ranked according to a ranking algorithm. The ranking algorithm determines which sentences include the highest number of query terms and the number of occurrences of the query terms in each sentence. A predetermined number of sentences that together contain as many query terms as possible are selected such that the sentences that are most representative of the document with respect to the query are included in the summary. The summary is generated at query time by concatenating the selected sentences with the query terms highlighted.
