Abstract

Automatic text summarization is considered as a challenging task in natural language processing field. In the case of multilingual scenario particularly for the low-resource, morphologically complex languages the availability of summarization data set is rare and difficult to construct. In this work, we propose a novel technique to extract Odia text from the image files using optical character recognition (OCR) and summarize the obtained text using extractive summarization techniques. Also, we performed a manual evaluation to measure the quality of summaries to validate our techniques. The proposed approach is found suitable for generating summarized Odia text and the same technique can also extend to other low-resource languages for extractive summarization system.
