This paper introduces a hybrid method for abstracting Chinese text. It integrates the statistical approach with language understanding. Some linguistics heuristics and segmentation are also incorporated into the abstracting process. The prototype system is of a multipurpose type catering for various users with different requirements. Initial responses show that the proposed method contributes much to the flexibility and accuracy of the automatic Chinese abstracting system. In practice, the present work provides a path to developing an intelligent Chinese system for automating the information. (AU) |

In the general abstracting process (GAP), there are two types of data: textual, within a particularly framed trilogy (surface, deep, and rhetoric); and documentary (abstractor, means of production, and user demands). For its development, the use of the following disciplines, among others, is proposed: linguistics (structural, transformational, and textual), logic (formal and fuzzy), and psychology (cognitive). The model for that textual transformation is based on a system of combined strategies with four key stages: reading-understanding, selection, interpretation, and synthesis. (AU) |

A survey of abstracting guidelines used by producers of bibliographic data bases examines abstracting instructions which aim to enhance free-text retrieval. Editors consider content of abstracts and their language as a primary factor in retrieval enhancement. Requirements about the type of abstracts, i.e. informative or indicative, and about their length are not affected by the capability of free-text retrieval. While instructions about content and language of abstracts indicate that better control and coordination results in better retrieval performance, it is not clear as yet in what way type and length of abstracts are affecting retrieval.

A survey of abstracting policies used by producers of bibliographic data bases examined abstracting guidelines which aim to enhance free text retrieval. Of the 123 data base policies examined, 57 (46%) included such instructions. Editors consider content of abstracts and their language as a primary factor in retrieval enhancement. Most recommend that once abstractors decide which concepts to include in abstracts and in which form to represent them, these terms should be coordinated with index terms assigned from a controlled vocabulary. Guidelines about the type of abstracts, i.e. informative or indicative, and about their length are not affected by the capability of free text retrieval. (DB) |
