Text summarization is the process of distilling the most important information from a text document to produce a shorter version while retaining its key points and overall meaning. This paper presents detailed comparisons of different transformer-based models employed for long text summarization. Our study analyzes both abstractive summarization based models like LongT5, BigBird Pegasus, HAT-BART, DYLE and extractive summarization based models like BERTSUM, LED-Large, HETFORMER, HIStruct+, Long-Trand-Extr. By evaluating numerous studies, our assessment aims to reveal the effectiveness of these approaches and provide a nuanced understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. ROUGE1, ROUGE 2, and ROUGE L are employed as performance metrics in the analysis of respective models. This research serves as a comprehensive guide for professionals working with long document summarization, specifically focusing on various transformer-based approaches, paving the way for advancements in real-world applications.

摘要

Text summarization is the process of distilling the most important information from a text document to produce a shorter version while retaining its key points and overall meaning. This paper presents detailed comparisons of different transformer-based models employed for long text summarization. Our study analyzes both abstractive summarization based models like LongT5, BigBird Pegasus, HAT-BART, DYLE and extractive summarization based models like BERTSUM, LED-Large, HETFORMER, HIStruct+, Long-Trand-Extr. By evaluating numerous studies, our assessment aims to reveal the effectiveness of these approaches and provide a nuanced understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. ROUGE1, ROUGE 2, and ROUGE L are employed as performance metrics in the analysis of respective models. This research serves as a comprehensive guide for professionals working with long document summarization, specifically focusing on various transformer-based approaches, paving the way for advancements in real-world applications.
