Text extraction is a highly subjective problem which depends on the dataset that one is working on and the kind of summarization details that needs to be extracted out. All the steps ranging from preprocessing of the data, to the choice of an optimal model for predictions, depends on the problem and the corpus at hand. In this paper, we describe a text extraction model where the aim is to extract word specified information relating to the semantics such that we can get all related and meaningful information about that word in a succinct format. This model can obtain meaningful results and can augment ubiquitous search model or a normal clustering or topic modelling algorithms. By utilizing new technique called two cluster assignment technique with K-means model, we improved the ontology of the retrieved text. We further apply the vector average damping technique for flexible movement of clusters. Our experimental results on a recent corpus of Covid-19 shows that we obtain good results based on main keywords.
