- Extracting concise information from scientific documents aids learners, researchers, and practitioners. Automatic Text Summarization (ATS), a key Natural Language Processing (NLP) application, automates this process. While ATS methods exist for many languages, Kurdish remains underdeveloped due to limited resources. This study develops a dataset and language model based on 231 scientific papers in Sorani Kurdish, collected from four academic departments in two universities in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI), averaging 26 pages per document. Using Sentence Weighting and Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) algorithms, two experiments were conducted, differing in whether the conclusions were included. The average word count was 5,492.3 in the first experiment and 5,266.96 in the second. Results were evaluated manually and automatically using ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2, and ROUGE-L metrics, with the best accuracy reaching 19.58%. Six experts conducted manual evaluations using three criteria, with results varying by document. This research provides valuable resources for Kurdish NLP researchers to advance ATS and related fields.
