Abstract

The paper presents a summarization process for enabling personalized searching framework facilitating the user access and navigation through desired contents. The system will express key concepts and relationships describing resources in a formal machine-processable representation. A WordNet-based knowledge representation could be used for content analysis and concept recognition, for reasoning processes and for enabling user-friendly and intelligent content exploration.
