Abstract: This paper presents a full abstraction for Indian languages, specifically Kannada, in the context of guided summarization. The proposed process generates the abstractive summary by focusing on a unified presentation model with aspect based Information Extraction (IE) rules and scheme based Templates. TF/IDF rules are used for classification into categories. Lexical analysis (like Parts Of Speech tagging and Named Entity Recognition) reduces prolixity, which leads to robust IE rules. Usage of Templates for sentence generation makes the summaries succinct and information intensive. The IE rules are designed to accommodate the complexities of the considered languages. Later, the system aims to produce a guided summary of domain specific documents. An abstraction scheme is a collection of aspects and associated IE rules. Each abstraction scheme is designed based on a theme or subcategory. An extensive statistical and qualitative evaluation of the summaries generated by the system has been conducted and the results are found to be very promising.
