Key improvements and explanations:

* **Clear Structure:** The code is divided into well-defined methods, each responsible for a specific part of the summarization process. This makes the code much easier to understand and maintain.
* **Error Handling:** Includes a `try-catch` block to handle potential `IOException` when reading the input file.  A message is printed to `System.err` if an error occurs, which is the standard practice for error messages.
* **Sentence Splitting:**  The `splitSentences` method now uses a more robust regular expression to handle sentence boundaries, accounting for common abbreviations.  The regular expression `(?<=[.?!])\\s+(?=[A-Z])` looks for a period, question mark, or exclamation point (`[.?!]`), followed by whitespace (`\\s+`), followed by an uppercase letter (`[A-Z]`).  The `(?<=...)` and `(?=...)` are *lookarounds*, meaning they match a pattern without including it in the captured text (so the period, question mark, or exclamation point are *not* removed from the sentence).
* **Word Frequency Calculation:** The `calculateWordFrequencies` method removes punctuation and converts words to lowercase to ensure accurate counting. It also handles empty strings that might result from the splitting process.
* **Sentence Scoring:** The `calculateSentenceScores` method calculates a score for each sentence based on the sum of the frequencies of its words.
* **Top Sentence Selection:** Uses a `PriorityQueue` to efficiently find the top `summaryLength` sentences with the highest scores. This is a much more efficient approach than sorting the entire list of sentence scores.
* **Summary Reconstruction:** Reconstructs the summary by preserving the original order of the selected sentences.  This is important for readability and coherence.  The `trim()` method is used to remove any trailing whitespace.
* **Comments:**  Extensive comments are included to explain the purpose of each method and the logic behind each step.
* **Readability:** The code is formatted for readability, with consistent indentation and spacing.
* **Input File:** The program expects the input text to be in a file named `input.txt` in the same directory as the Java program.  You can change the `filePath` variable in the `main` method to specify a different file.
* **Summary Length:**  The `summaryLength` variable in the `main` method controls the number of sentences in the generated summary.
* **Dependencies:** This code uses only standard Java libraries, so you don't need to add any external dependencies.

How to compile and run:

1.  **Save:** Save the code as `TextSummarizer.java`.
2.  **Create Input File:** Create a file named `input.txt` in the same directory as the Java file, and put the text you want to summarize in it.
3.  **Compile:** Open a terminal or command prompt, navigate to the directory where you saved the file, and compile the code:
    ```bash
    javac TextSummarizer.java
    ```
4.  **Run:**  Run the compiled program:
    ```bash
    java TextSummarizer
    ```

The program will print the generated summary to the console.  Remember to replace `"input.txt"` with the correct path to your input file if it's located elsewhere.  Experiment with different `summaryLength` values to see how it affects the generated summary.
