An Automatic Multidocument Text Summarization Approach Based on Naïve Bayesian Classifier Using Timestamp Strategy

Algorithm 3

Timestamp based summary generation.
(1) For all the sentences in the cluster
(2) Begin
   (a) Sort the sentence in the descending order depending on the obtained score values after
       the reduction of the redundancy penalty.
(3) End
(4) Begin
   (a) Get the compression rate from the user
   (b) Select the required number of sentences based on the compression rate.
   (c) Sort the sentences in the ascending order depending on the timestamps
   (d) If the Timestamps are same
   (e) Begin
      (i) Compare the score values
      (ii) Sentence with the higher score value will appear first
   (f) End
   (g) End If
(5) End
