| Challenge: | In this paper, we address the task of summarizing television shows, which touches key areas in AI research. |
| Approach: | They propose a modular approach where separate components perform specialized sub-tasks . they propose atomic facts to measure precision and recall of generated summaries . |
| Outcome: | The proposed method produces higher quality summaries than comparison models on a recently released dataset. |
