ABSTRACT
This paper describes a summarization system for technical chats and emails on the Linux kernel. To reflect the complexity and sophistication of the discussions, they are clustered according to subtopic structure on the sub-message level, and immediate responding pairs are identified through machine learning methods. A resulting summary consists of one or more mini-summaries, each on a subtopic from the discussion.

Digesting Multilingual Reader Comments via Latent Discussion Topics with Commonality and Specificity
CIKM '16: Proceedings of the 25th ACM International on Conference on Information and Knowledge ManagementMany news websites from different regions in the world allow readers to write comments in their own languages about an event. Digesting such enormous amount of comments in different languages is difficult. One elegant way to digest and organize these ...
Digesting News Reader Comments via Fine-Grained Associations with Event Facets and News Contents
CIKM '16: Proceedings of the 25th ACM International on Conference on Information and Knowledge ManagementNews articles from different sources reporting the same event are often associated with an enormous amount of reader comments resulting in difficulty in digesting the comments manually. Some of these comments, despite coming from different sources, ...

Visual culture in virtual worlds is not purely authentic or purely imaginative. When culture emerges in a visualized virtual world, where everything that can be seen is created by its users, visual culture can be diverse and complex. Users from ...
