Multilingual Text Summarization

Multilingual text summarization applies pre-trained multilingual encoder-decoder models — such as mT5 or mBART — to generate concise summaries of documents written in many languages, either within the same language (monolingual) or across languages (cross-lingual). Fine-tuning these models on multilingual summarization benchmarks like XL-Sum enables coverage of dozens of languages with a single model.
