A Review of Text Summarization Techniques Using NLP

Abstract

Techniques that employ natural language processing (NLP), often known as text summarizing, automatically construct summaries of extensive texts. Extractive and abstractive summarization are two main categories that may be used to classify these methods. In extractive summarizing, the most significant lines or phrases from a text are isolated and used to generate a summary. On the other hand, in abstractive summarization, a summary is generated that is clear, short, and accurate in its representation of the text's primary concepts. NLP methods like sentence segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, named entity recognition, and semantic analysis are used in generating a summary from a text and locating and extracting relevant information from the text. Text summarizing is a subject that has received a significant amount of study and has applications in various fields, including the summation of news articles, documents, and emails, among other things.
