• Abstract: Cross-lingual summarization involves the summarization of text written in one language to a different one. There is a body of research addressing cross-lingual summarization from English to other European languages. In this work, we aim to perform cross-lingual summarization from English to Hindi. We propose pairing up the coverage of newsworthy events in textual and video format can prove to be helpful for data acquisition for cross lingual summarization. We analyze the data and propose methods to match articles to video descriptions that serve as document and summary pairs. We also outline filtering methods over reasonable thresholds to ensure the correctness of the summaries. Further, we make available 28,583 mono and cross-lingual article-summary pairs https://github.com/tingc9/Cross-Sum-News-Aligned. We also build and analyze multiple baselines on the collected data and report error analysis.

  We propose a new task formulation of dense retrieval, cross-lingual contextualized phrase retrieval. We train our Cross-lingual Contextualized Phrase Retriever (CCPR) using contrastive learning. On the phrase retrieval task, CCPR surpasses baselines by a significant margin, achieving a top-1 accuracy that is at least 13 points higher.

  A problem that frequently occurs when working with a non-English language is the scarcity of annotated training data. We design a simple but effective ensemble-based framework that combines various transfer learning techniques. We also propose a low-cost TL method that bootstraps coreference resolution models by utilizing Wikipedia anchor texts.

We derive cross-lingual document-summary instances from Wikipedia by combining lead paragraphs and articles' bodies from language aligned Wikipedia titles.

  CrossSum is a large-scale cross-lingual summarization dataset comprising 1.68 million article-summary samples in 1,500+ language pairs. We create CrossSum by aligning parallel articles written in different languages via cross-lingual retrieval from a multilingual abstractive summarization dataset. We propose a multistage data sampling algorithm to effectively train a cross-lingual summarization model capable of summarizing an article in any target language.

  Cross-lingual Summarization aims at producing a summary in the target language for an article in the source language. We propose a solution based on mixed-lingual pre-training that leverages both cross-lingual tasks like translation and monolingual tasks like masked language models. Our model achieves an improvement of 2.82 (English to Chinese) and 1.15 (Chinese to English) ROUGE-1 scores over state-of-the-art results.

We extract article and summary pairs in 18 languages from WikiHow, a high quality, collaborative resource of how-to guides on a diverse set of topics written by human authors. We create gold-standard article-summary alignments across languages by aligning the images that are used to describe each how-to step in an article.
