Ever since, instances where users being overloaded with too much electronic textual information are inevitable. The users may only be interested in shorter versions of text documents but are overloaded with lengthy texts. The objective of the study is to develop a text summarization system that incorporates learning ability by combining a statistical approach, keywords extraction, and neural network with unsupervised learning. The system is able to learn to classify sentences when well trained with sufficient text samples. Users with strong background in writing English summaries have subjectively evaluated the outputs of the text summarization system based on contents. With the average contents score of 83.03, the system is regarded to have produced an effective summary with most of the important contents of the original text extracted without compromising the summary's readability. date: 2006 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-36148951785&doi=10.2495%2fDATA060191&partnerID=40&md5=1b16e0a3c2fb6fbda82cacbf8670cf89 id_number: 10.2495/DATA060191 full_text_status: none publication: WIT Transactions on Information and Communication Technologies volume: 37 place_of_pub: Prague pagerange: 185-192 refereed: TRUE isbn: 1845641787; 9781845641788 issn: 17433517 citation: Yong, S.P. and Abidin, A.I.Z. and Chen, Y.Y.
