On interactive linguistic summarization of databases via a fuzzy-logic-based querying add-on to microsoft access

摘要

We propose an interactive approach to the linguistic summarization of databases. The point of departure is that a fully automatic generation of summaries is presently imposssible, and an interaction with the user is necessary; the user is to specify a class of summaries of interest or relevance. For an implementation of such an interactive approach, a human-friendly database querying interface is employed, and we proposed to use our FQUERY for Access querying add-on. An implementation of two relevant types of summaries is shown.
