A Long-Document Summarization Task is a entire-document summarization task that involves long documents.
- Context:
- It can (typically) involve processing variable-scale documents, where the size and complexity of the document pose challenges to traditional summarization algorithms due to computational or context retention constraints.
- It can (typically) require handling of various data formats, including but not limited to PDF files, digital books, and long web articles, necessitating flexible preprocessing and normalization steps.
- It can be supported by a Long-Document Summarization System (that implements a long-document summarization task).
- ...
- Example(s):
- Counter-Example(s):
- Short Document Summarization Task, such as: short news article summarization or blog post summarization.
- Long-Document Keyword Extraction (keyword extraction).
- Large-Image Caption Generation.
- Real-time transcription summarization of meetings, which typically involves shorter, more immediate content.

- QUOTE: "Although summarizing a short paragraph is a trivial task, summarizing large documents such as a PDF file with multiple pages can be challenging... We will go through a few examples of how we can use generative models along with LangChain strategies to summarize large documents."
