  • Abstract
    Although a lot has been done for visually impaired people to access information with Braille screens, Braille keyboards, Braille PDAs and text-to-speech interfaces, very little has been made to reduce the amount of information they have to deal with. In this paper, we propose an automatic summarization system to ease Web browsing for visually impaired people on PDAs
