NLP Based Automated Business Report Summarization

Abstract

A business report usually contains customer feedback, analysis, findings and recommendations for future implementation for the improvement in the specified business. Automated text summarization of business reports will help the analysis team to enhance the building of the business proposal model. The business report summarization is quite different from generic text summarization as it conveys most of the data through tables, graphs and images. Several text summarization methods can be considered for generating the summary of a business report. This paper provides a comprehensive study on different approaches that can be considered for business report summarization and the latest evaluation methods. Moreover, it discusses some future research directions in the field of business text summarization using a combination of natural language processing with statistics and deep learning.
