One of the most challenging aspects of current single-document news summarization is that the summary often contains 'extrinsic hallucinations', i.e., facts that are not present in the source document, which are often derived via world…

A basic information theoretic model for summarization is formulated. Here summarization is considered as the process of taking a report of $v$ binary objects, and producing from it a $j$ element subset that captures most of the important…
