Abstractive summarization is the task of compressing a long document into a coherent short document while retaining salient information. Modern abstractive summarization methods are based on deep neural networks which often require large…

With the abundance of data and information in todays time, it is nearly impossible for man, or, even machine, to go through all of the data line by line. What one usually does is to try to skim through the lines and retain the absolutely…
