23 - Get To The Point: Summarization with Pointer-Generator Networks - a podcast by Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence
from 2017-06-26T15:30:48
ACL 2017 paper by Abigail See, Peter Liu, and Chris Manning.
Matt presents the paper, describing the task (summarization on CNN/Daily Mail), the model (the standard copy + generate model that people are using these days, plus a nice coverage loss term), and the results (can't beat the extractive baseline, but coming close). It's a nice paper - very well written, interesting discussion section.

Abigail also has a very nice blog post where she describes her work in a less formal tone than the paper: http://www.abigailsee.com/2017/04/16/taming-rnns-for-better-summarization.html
