Abstract

In this paper we present Heady-Lines, a creative system that produces news headlines based on well-known expressions. The algorithm is composed of several steps that identify keywords from a news article, select an appropriate well-known expression and modify it to produce a novel one, using state-of-the-art natural language processing and linguistic creativity techniques. The system has a simple web-interface that abstracts the technical details from users and lets them concentrate on the task of producing creative headlines.
