Abstract
A method for generating summaries includes selecting a first subset of text units of a text composition to incorporate into a first summary of the text composition using a weighting of the text units that indicates for each text unit a relative importance of including the text unit in summaries of the text composition. The weighting of the text units is modified to reduce the relative importance of each text unit in the first subset based on the text unit having been selected for the first subset. A second subset of the text units is selected to incorporate into a second summary of the text composition using the modified weighting of the text units. At least one of the first summary and the second summary are provided to a user device.
