@inproceedings{Lin:2003, abstract = {Following the recent adoption by the machine translation community of automatic evaluation using the BLEU/NIST scoring process, we conduct an in-depth study of a similar idea for evaluating summaries. The results show that automatic evaluation using unigram co-occurrences between summary pairs correlates surprising well with human evaluations, based on various statistical metrics; while direct application of the BLEU evaluation procedure does not always give good results.}, added-at = {2008-03-12T04:42:41.000+0100}, author = {Lin, Chin-Yew and Hovy, Eduard}, biburl = {http://www.bibsonomy.org/bibtex/223b316a5ac5cb3159a24e55b5c6e564d/diego_ma}, booktitle = {Proc.
