Text Summarization

Text summarization is the process of condensing a longer piece of writing into a shorter version that captures the main ideas and essential information. It helps readers quickly understand the core message without reading the entire text. There are two main types: extractive, which selects relevant sentences or phrases directly from the original, and abstractive, which generates new, concise sentences that paraphrase the main points. This technique is used in news summaries, research digests, and various applications to save time and improve information accessibility.
