Task overview
This MultiLing task aims to evaluate the application of (partially or fully) language-independent summarization algorithms on a variety of languages. Each system participating in the task will be called to provide summaries for a range of different languages, based on corresponding corpora. In the MultiLing Pilot of 2011 the languages used were 7, while in the MultiLing 2015 8 languages will be used. Participating systems will be required to apply their methods on a minimum of two languages. Evaluation will favour systems that apply their methods in more languages.
The MultiLing task requires to generate a single, fluent, representative summary from a set of documents describing an event sequence. The language of the document set will be within a given range of languages and all documents in a set share the same language. The output summary should be of the same language as its source documents. The output summary should be 250 words (for non-Chinese languages) or 750 bytes (for Chinese language, in UTF-8 encoding) at most.
Sample input and output
The input and output data samples are based on the MultiLing 2013 equivalent task.
