Summarizing Answer Graphs Induced by Keyword Queries

Summary: Introduces summary graphs to condense answer graphs from keyword queries, preserving keyword relations by summarizing inter-keyword paths. Defines a coverage ratio metric, frames PTIME–NP-complete summarization problems, and offers exact and heuristic algorithms with real/synthetic experiments. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
