MPSUM: Entity Summarization with Predicate-based Matching

With the development of Semantic Web, entity summarization has become an emerging task to generate concrete summaries for real world entities. To solve this problem, we propose an approach named MPSUM that extends a probabilistic topic model by integrating the idea of predicate-uniqueness and object-importance for ranking triples. The approach aims at generating brief but representative summaries for entities. We compare our approach with the state-of-the-art methods using DBpedia and LinkedMDB datasets.The experimental results show that our work improves the quality of entity summarization.
