Abstract: A system and method for converting a document is described. The system accesses a document comprising one or more section breaks. The system detects sections of the text document demarked by the one or more section breaks and generates a section title metadata and a section summary metadata for each section of the plurality of sections. The system inserts the section title metadata and the section summary metadata at the corresponding section breaks in the text document. The system modifies the text document into slides. Each slide being formed for each section based on the corresponding section title metadata and the section summary metadata. The system generates a presentation document based on the slides.

Abstract: According to implementations of the subject matter described herein, there is provided a solution for generating a summary of a document. In this solution, feature information of pages comprised in a document is extracted, which characterizes at least one type of content contained in each page. Respective importance of the pages is determined at least based on the extracted feature information. A summary of the document is generated for the document by selecting a predetermined number of pages less than the number of the pages based on the respective importance. Through the solution, instead of providing all the pages, pages containing important content may be determined automatically to serve as the summary of the document. This summary allows the user to learn quickly main content of the document, shorten the time consumed in browsing all documents and/or facilitate location of a document of interest as soon as possible.

Abstract: Methods and systems for linking comments to portions of content items. An example computing device receives information associated with a content item produced by a source system, the content item being accessible to other the computing devices via a network and receives a comment associated with the content item, the comment produced by one of the other computing devices. In response to receiving the information and the comment, the computing device predicts a subsection of the content item to link to the received comment based at least on details associated with the content item and the comment, then makes information associated with the predicted subsection of the content item available to other computing devices requesting access to the content item.

Abstract: According to embodiments of the present disclosure, there is provided a solution for reading order detection in a document. In the solution, a computer-implemented method includes: determining a text sequence and layout information presented in a document, the text sequence comprising a plurality of text elements, the layout information indicating a spatial layout of the plurality of text elements in the document; generating a plurality of semantic feature representations corresponding to the plurality of text elements based at least on the text sequence and the layout information; and determining a reading order of the plurality of text elements in the document based on the plurality of semantic feature representations. According to the solution, the introduction of the layout information can better characterize a spatial layout manner of the text elements in a specific document, thereby determining the reading order more effectively and accurately.

Abstract: Implementations of the subject matter described herein provide a solution that enables a machine to automatically generate a melody. In this solution, user emotion and/or environment information is used to select a first melody feature parameter from a plurality of melody feature parameters, wherein each of the plurality of melody feature parameters corresponds to a music style of one of a plurality of reference melodies. The first melody feature parameter is further used to generate a first melody that conforms to the music style and is different from the reference melody. Thus, a melody that matches user emotions and/or environmental information may be automatically created.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a comments-centered news reader. Configurations allow live comments to be presented along with the news or similar website content. While a user scrolls up and down in a browser presenting a news article on the user's computer device (e.g., mobile device), linked comments are shown in a selected region. The displayed comments automatically change to adapt to what parts (paragraphs, sentences) of the news article that user is currently reading. At the same time, users can publish their own comments without having to proceed to a separate section of the browser, thus saving the viewer actions and improving the user's experience. The user's system or a remote server records the comments along with the article or the place users are in the article when the comment was entered.
