We adapt the traditional Relationship Map approach to the multi-document scenario and, in a hybrid approach, we consider adding CST (Cross-document Structure Theory) relations to this adapted model. We also investigate some measures derived from graphs and complex networks for sentence selection. We show that the superficial graph-based methods are promising for the task. More importantly, some of them perform almost as good as a deep approach.}, identifier = {06071944}, }
