Dependency-based Text Graphs for Keyphrase and Summary Extraction with Applications to Interactive Content Retrieval

20 Sep 2019arXiv:1909.09742archive 2025-07-28

Paul Tarau, Eduardo Blanco

We build a bridge between neural network-based machine learning and graph-based natural language processing and introduce a unified approach to keyphrase, summary and relation extraction by aggregating dependency graphs from links provided by a deep-learning based dependency parser. We reorganize dependency graphs to focus on the most relevant content elements of a sentence, integrate sentence identifiers as graph nodes and after ranking the graph, we extract our keyphrases and summaries from its largest strongly-connected component. We take advantage of the implicit structural information that dependency links bring to extract subject-verb-object, is-a and part-of relations. We put it all together into a proof-of-concept dialog engine that specializes the text graph with respect to a query and reveals interactively the document's most relevant content elements. The open-source code of the integrated system is available at https://github.com/ptarau/DeepRank . Keywords: graph-based natural language processing, dependency graphs, keyphrase, summary and relation extraction, query-driven salient sentence extraction, logic-based dialog engine, synergies between neural and symbolic processing.
