Topic Classification and Headline Generation for Maltese Using a Public News Corpus (2024.lrec-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing datasets for low-resource languages lack labelled data . public datasets only cover low-level syntactic tasks . |
| Approach: | They propose to use a news tag multi-label classification and a summary task by generating its title to generate a new semantic dataset for Maltese. |
| Outcome: | The proposed datasets show that current models lack the knowledge required to solve such tasks. |

Leveraging Digitized Newspapers to Collect Summarization Data in Low-Resource Languages (2026.findings-eacl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Recent studies suggest that summarization in English may be solved, or even "dead" However, there are no accessible, high-quality summarizing datasets in under-represented languages. |
| Approach: | They propose a method for collecting naturally occurring summaries via front-page teasers, where editors summarize full length articles. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method is suited to varying linguistic resources and is available in seven languages. |
