Summarization is a complex task whose goal is to generate a concise version of a text without necessarily reusing the sentences from the original source, but still preserving the meaning and the key contents. In this position paper we address this issue by modeling the problem as a sequence to sequence learning and exploiting Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN). Moreover, we discuss the idea of combining RNNs and probabilistic models in a unified way in order to incorporate prior knowledge, such as linguistic features. We believe that this approach can obtain better performance than the state-of-The-Art models for generating well-formed summaries.

Abstract

Summarization is a complex task whose goal is to generate a concise version of a text without necessarily reusing the sentences from the original source, but still preserving the meaning and the key contents. In this position paper we address this issue by modeling the problem as a sequence to sequence learning and exploiting Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN). Moreover, we discuss the idea of combining RNNs and probabilistic models in a unified way in order to incorporate prior knowledge, such as linguistic features. We believe that this approach can obtain better performance than the state-of-The-Art models for generating well-formed summaries.
