Neural abstractive summarization: improvements at the sequence-level by Ravaut, Mathieu

“…The task can be divided into extractive summarization, where the system must produce an output solely made of input contents, and abstractive summarization, where the model is free to generate new text, much like a human would do. In this thesis, we only consider the latter, more challenging abstractive summarization use case. …”
