Document summarization is a problem of condensing a source document into a shorter version preserving its information content. An automatic document summarization method that generates document summaries by clustering and extracting sentences from the source document is presented in this paper. The specificity of this approach is that the generated summary can contain the main contents of different topics as many as possible and reduce its redundancy at the same source document to form a summary. The proposed method is based on clustering of sentence which satisfies as much homogeneity within each cluster as well as much separability between the clusters as possible.
