Auto Summary
Founded in 2010, Automatic Test Summarizer , AKA ATS, was created to provide text summarizer software. Product development and technology leadership expertise are deployed to support its core business. The product roadmap is comprised of three phases. Two of which were completed and the last and most ambitious of those phases is "ATS for Android" which is an Automatic Text Summarizer for smart phones deploying Android technology.
Mission:
Strive to develop a superior summarizing software for users through state-of-the-art technology, innovation and leadership.
Products/Services:
The product is comprised of parts; ATS for PC's, ATS website, and ATS for smart phones. The main function of the product is to summarize text documents and books according to some mathematical and statistical equations. Text summarization is the process of extracting the most important information from a source to create a concise version. Automatic text summarization is based on statistical, linguistical, and heuristic methods. Summaries can be used to determine whether the retrieved documents are relevant to the subject or not, so they give the user the ability to decide whether to read the original material or not.
Unique Technologies/Key Differentiators:
As the amount of textual information available electronically grows rapidly, it becomes more difficult to cope with all the text that is potentially of interest. Such a software would be valuable, because it would be used to produce a summary of the most important parts of the text, keeping a person up to date with certain information he / she is interested in or need to know, so that it can be used to summarize different types of essays, and generate daily news.
The project employs a text summarization technique that measures the importance of sentences by the importance of the words in each sentence. For example, it the software can be used in universities, and companies to generate summary reports for executives and high level management. Also, it can be used in search engines such as Google to save time and simplify the search process for googlers and let them find what they specifically need without reading the whole document they find. Also in news websites and newspaper sites to generate short news and most important parts of the text or essay and to summarize books and papers. A key differentiator for this product is that it operates in two languages; English and Arabic. Also it is worth mentioning that currently there are no known similar products.
