Abstract

Deploying a generalized, multi-functional
mechanism that produces good results for personalizing
summarized and categorized news articles, seems to be a
panacea for most of the text-based, information retrieval
needs. In this paper, we present the personalization
algorithm, as well as a client side application that are
used as an extension to an already constructed system,
PeRSSonal, in order to deliver summarized and precategorized
news articles to the user.
