Textual Opinion summarization aims to concentrate and refine the text data so as to generate a summary of the text regarding the expressed opinion. We collect and annotate an English multi-document corpus on product reviews, which provides a basic resource for the research on textual opinion summarization. Specifically, we incorporate the opinion and helpful information into the Cluster_HITS model to consider the impacts of them. Experimental results show that the proposed method apparently outperforms baseline in terms of ROUGE measurement.
