Abstract

A document segmentation method of detecting segmentation points where a topic of an input document is discontinuous before and after the point to divide the document into plural blocks includes: detecting terms that occur in an input document; segmenting the input document into document segments, each segment being an appropriate sized chunk; generating document segment vectors with as its elements values related to frequencies of the terms occurring in the document segments; calculating eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a square sum matrix of the document segment vectors; selecting the basis vectors consisting a subspace from the eigenvectors to calculate the topic continuity of the document segments; calculating vectors with as their elements the values corresponding to the projection values of the each document segment vector onto the basis vector; and determining segmentation points of the document based on the continuity of the projected vectors.
