Abstract

Nowadays, people deal with a huge amount of data, especially while they are surfing on internet. So, this makes the topic of automatic summarization is very important and in the forefront. In this paper, a review for text summarization methods in Turkish is presented. Brief summary of the methods used for automatic text summarization in the literature, and also brief definitions of summary, abstraction and automatic text summarization are given.
