Abstract



We discuss intelligent information provision involving different modal information collaboratively presented, with an example of news articles about stock prices summarized based on 2D chart representation on stock prices. We use the MuST corpus, an annotated corpus for easily extracting trends in information, e.g., statistical values, etc., as the news article corpus to be summarized. We associate the MuST corpus with numerical data on the stock prices, and propose a way to provide people with a summarized text about news articles on prices corresponding to 2D chart representation.
