EntSUM: A dataset for entity centric summarization

Repository for pre-processing code related to generating the training datasets used in the paper.

Using this repository

The repository contains 4 notebooks:

Datasets

CNN/DailyMail and NYT are datasets that can be used for training models by setting up entity-centric summarization datasets with methods described in the paper and by leveraging the notebooks mentioned above.

The EntSUM dataset is used to evaluate the effectiveness of these trained entity-centric summarization models.

    abstract = "Controllable summarization aims to provide summaries that take into account user-specified aspects and preferences to better assist them with their information need, as opposed to the standard summarization setup which build a single generic summary of a document.We introduce a human-annotated data set EntSUM for controllable summarization with a focus on named entities as the aspects to control.We conduct an extensive quantitative analysis to motivate the task of entity-centric summarization and show that existing methods for controllable summarization fail to generate entity-centric summaries. We propose extensions to state-of-the-art summarization approaches that achieve substantially better results on our data set. Our analysis and results show the challenging nature of this task and of the proposed data set.",
