Text Summarization Techniques for Kannada Language

Text Summarization is summarizing the original text document into a shorter description. This short version should retain the meaning and information content of the original text document. A concise summary can help humans quickly understand a large original document better in a short time. Summarization can be used in many text documents, such as reviews of books, movies, newspaper articles, content, and huge documents. Text summarization is broadly classified into extractive Text Summarization (ETS) and Abstractive Text Summarization (ATS). Even though more research works are carried out using extractive methods, meaningful summaries can be attained using abstractive summary techniques, which are more complex. In Indian languages, very few works are carried out in abstract summarization, and there is a high need for research in this area. The paper aims to generate extractive and abstractive summaries of the text by using deep learning and extractive summaries and comparisons between them in the Kannada language.
