Our long context summarization dataset is now on 🤗 Huggingface! huggingface.co/datasets/dwr... Use it as a training or a test set for long context query focused summarization! It includes evidence attribution of free-form text spans from the context, making summaries more transparent and reliable!

New preprint: "Unstructured Evidence Attribution for Long Context Query Focused Summarization" We propose unstructured evidence attribution for long context summarization and a synthetic dataset called SUnsET which can help models perform this task. Paper link: arxiv.org/abs/2502.14409 Thread ⬇️

If you have ever had cause to doubt the wisdom of taking all of the computers in the world and connecting them to each other, an evening spent perusing social media is unlikely to assuage your concerns.

Podcasts are a popular medium, but data for computational research is limited! We introduce the Structured Podcast Research Corpus (SPoRC - huggingface.co/datasets/bli...), a large, multimodal dataset of English podcasts 🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2411.07892

submitted 205 days ago • 4 comments

Lots of folks listen to podcasts—an estimated half of Americans do monthly!—but there's been limited data to study what happens on them. What do they talk about? Who are the guests? Who is influencing whom?? This new dataset is our attempt to bring light to an important medium
