Abstract

This project presents a comprehensive methodology for text summarization that integrates both extractive and abstractive techniques to enhance the quality of generated summaries. In the extractive summarization phase, KL divergence is utilized to identify and select key sentences or phrases from the source text, effectively capturing the most relevant information. These selected segments are then passed as input to an abstractive summarization model, specifically BART (Bidirectional and Auto-Regressive Transformers), which processes and refines the extracted information to produce a coherent and fluent summary. By combining the precision of extractive summarization with the fluency and coherence of abstractive approaches, the proposed methodology aims to generate high-quality summaries that offer improved coverage of the source text, enhanced fluency, and a significant reduction in redundancy.
