Abstract | |||||||||||||||
| We address the issue of human subjectivity when authoring summaries, aiming at a simple, robust evaluation of machine generated summaries. Applying a cross comprehension test on human authored short summaries from broadcast news, the level of subjectivity is gauged among four authors. The instruction set is simple, thus there is enough room for subjectivity. | |||||||||||||||
