Description

This is a python implementation of TextRank for automatic keyword and sentence extraction (summarization) as done in https://web.eecs.umich.edu/~mihalcea/papers/mihalcea.emnlp04.pdf. However, this implementation uses Levenshtein Distance as the relation between text units.

This implementation carries out automatic keyword and sentence extraction on 10 articles gotten from http://theonion.com

100 word summary
Number of keywords extracted is relative to the size of the text (a third of the number of nodes in the graph)
Adjacent keywords in the text are concatenated into keyphrases
