Chapter 12: Project: News Aggregator
12.3 Implementing Text Summarization and Topic Modeling
We will implement advanced text summarization and topic modeling techniques to effectively process the collected news articles. Text summarization will allow us to generate concise and coherent summaries of the news articles, making it easier for users to quickly understand the main points.
On the other hand, topic modeling will categorize the articles into different topics, helping to organize the information more systematically. By employing these techniques, we aim to enhance the chatbot's ability to provide users with relevant, well-organized, and summarized news, ensuring they have access to the most pertinent information without having to sift through lengthy articles.
12.3.1 Text Summarization
Text summarization involves creating a short and coherent version of a longer text document. There are two main approaches to text summarization: extractive and abstractive summarization.
1. Extractive Summarization
Extractive summarization selects important sentences or phrases directly from the original text to create a summary. This approach is simpler and often yields coherent summaries.
Example: Extractive Summarization using NLTK
We will use the NLTK library to implement an extractive summarization method based on sentence scoring.
import nltk
from nltk.tokenize import sent_tokenize, word_tokenize
from nltk.corpus import stopwords
from nltk.probability import FreqDist
import string
# Download NLTK resources
nltk.download('punkt')
nltk.download('stopwords')
def summarize_text(text, num_sentences=3):
# Tokenize the text into sentences
sentences = sent_tokenize(text)
# Tokenize the text into words
words = word_tokenize(text.lower())
words = [word for word in words if word not in string.punctuation and word not in stopwords.words('english')]
# Calculate word frequencies
freq_dist = FreqDist(words)
# Score sentences based on word frequencies
sentence_scores = {}
for sentence in sentences:
for word in word_tokenize(sentence.lower()):
if word in freq_dist:
if sentence not in sentence_scores:
sentence_scores[sentence] = freq_dist[word]
else:
sentence_scores[sentence] += freq_dist[word]
# Select the top N sentences with the highest scores
summarized_sentences = sorted(sentence_scores, key=sentence_scores.get, reverse=True)[:num_sentences]
# Combine the selected sentences into a summary
summary = ' '.join(summarized_sentences)
return summary
# Test the summarizer
text = """
Natural language processing (NLP) is a subfield of linguistics, computer science, and artificial intelligence concerned with the interactions between computers and human language. In particular, it is about how to program computers to process and analyze large amounts of natural language data. The result is a computer capable of "understanding" the contents of documents, including the contextual nuances of the language within them. The technology can then accurately extract information and insights contained in the documents as well as categorize and organize the documents themselves.
"""
summary = summarize_text(text)
print(f"Summary: {summary}")
In this script, we implement an extractive summarization method by tokenizing the text into sentences and words, calculating word frequencies, and scoring sentences based on these frequencies. The top sentences with the highest scores are selected to form the summary.
2. Abstractive Summarization
Abstractive summarization generates a summary by interpreting the main ideas of the text and expressing them in a new way. This approach is more complex and requires advanced natural language generation techniques.
Example: Abstractive Summarization using Hugging Face Transformers
We will use the Hugging Face Transformers library to implement an abstractive summarization model based on a pre-trained transformer model.
summarizer.py (continued):
from transformers import pipeline
# Initialize the summarization pipeline
summarizer = pipeline("summarization")
def abstractive_summarize_text(text, max_length=130, min_length=30):
summary = summarizer(text, max_length=max_length, min_length=min_length, do_sample=False)
return summary[0]['summary_text']
# Test the abstractive summarizer
text = """

abstract_summary = abstractive_summarize_text(text)
print(f"Abstractive Summary: {abstract_summary}")
In this script, we initialize a summarization pipeline using a pre-trained transformer model from Hugging Face and implement an abstractive summarization function that generates a summary based on the main ideas of the text.
12.3.2 Topic Modeling
Topic modeling is a technique used to identify the main topics present in a collection of documents. One of the most popular algorithms for topic modeling is Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA).
Example: Topic Modeling using Gensim
We will use the Gensim library to implement LDA for topic modeling.
nlp_engine.py (continued):
import gensim
from gensim import corpora
# Load preprocessed articles
with open('data/preprocessed_articles.json', 'r') as file:
preprocessed_articles = json.load(file)
# Extract content from articles
contents = [article["content"] for article in preprocessed_articles]
# Tokenize the content
tokenized_contents = [nltk.word_tokenize(content) for content in contents]
# Create a dictionary representation of the documents
dictionary = corpora.Dictionary(tokenized_contents)
# Filter out rare and common tokens
dictionary.filter_extremes(no_below=5, no_above=0.5)
# Create a bag-of-words representation of the documents
corpus = [dictionary.doc2bow(text) for text in tokenized_contents]
# Train the LDA model
lda_model = gensim.models.ldamodel.LdaModel(corpus, num_topics=5, id2word=dictionary, passes=15)
# Print the topics
topics = lda_model.print_topics(num_words=4)
for topic in topics:
print(topic)
# Save the LDA model and dictionary
lda_model.save('models/lda_model')
dictionary.save('models/dictionary.gensim')
In this script, we use the Gensim library to implement LDA for topic modeling. We preprocess the articles, create a dictionary and bag-of-words representation of the documents, and train the LDA model to identify the main topics. The topics are printed, and the LDA model and dictionary are saved for future use.
In this section, we implemented text summarization and topic modeling techniques to process the collected news articles. We discussed two approaches to text summarization: extractive summarization using sentence scoring with NLTK and abstractive summarization using a pre-trained transformer model from Hugging Face. We also implemented topic modeling using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm with the Gensim library.
These techniques enhance the chatbot's ability to provide users with relevant and summarized news, categorized into different topics.
