Multi-Document Summarization

Multi-Document Summarization is a process of representing a set of documents with a short piece of text by capturing the relevant information and filtering out the redundant information. Two prominent approaches to Multi-Document Summarization are extractive and abstractive summarization. Extractive summarization systems aim to extract salient snippets, sentences or passages from documents, while abstractive summarization systems aim to concisely paraphrase the content of the documents.
