The latter method is popular (i.e., especially in news domain [23]) and seems a more straightforward method, which tends to produce a higher efficiency summary than the abstractive-based summary [24]. Diving into the extractive method that we consider in this paper, there are various techniques used in addressing Arabic summarization, such as statistical/linguistic-based [8], [15], [9], [6], semantic/query-based [12], [7], [8], [21], [9], graph/optimization-based [10], [11], [25], [12], and machine learning [5], [13], [14], [20], [19], [15], [26], [27], [28].…”
