Challenge: Existing methods for summarizing product reviews with thousands of reviews are inefficient and time consuming.
Approach: They propose an unsupervised extractive step and a supervised abstractive step to generate a short summary in any language.
Outcome: The proposed model is as good as human written summaries in coherence, informativeness, non-redundancy, and fluency as human summary summators.
