Summaries or abstracts available with medical articles are useful for the physicians, medical students and patients to know rapidly what is the article about and decide whether articles are suitable for in-depth study. Since all medical text documents do not come with author written abstracts or summaries, an automatic medical text summarization system can facilitate rapid medical information access on the web. We approach the problem of automatically generating summary from medical article as a supervised learning task. We treat a document as a set of sentences, which the learning algorithm must learn to classify as positive or negative examples of sentences based on summary worthiness of the sentences. We apply the machine learning algorithm called bagging to this learning task, where a C4.5 decision tree has been chosen as the base learner. We also compare the proposed approach to some existing summarization approaches.
