XSum
XSum is a single-document summarization task which does not favor extractive strategies and calls for an abstractive modeling approach. The idea is to create a short, one-sentence news summary answering the question “What is the article about?”. The dataset collects real-world, large scale data by harvesting online articles from the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC).
