Towards Adaptive Text Summarization: How Does Compression Rate Affect Summary Readability of L2 Texts?
This paper addresses the problem of readability of automatically generated summaries in the context of second language learning. For this we experimented with a new corpus of level-annotated simplified English texts. The texts were summarized using a total of 7 extractive and abstractive summarization systems with compression rates of 20{\%}, 40{\%}, 60{\%} and 80{\%}. We analyzed the generated summaries in terms of lexical, syntactic and length-based features of readability, and concluded that summary complexity depends on the compression rate, summarization technique and the nature of the summarized corpus. Our experiments demonstrate the importance of choosing appropriate summarization techniques that align with user{'}s needs and language proficiency.

ArcAligner: Adaptive Recursive Aligner for Compressed Context Embeddings in RAG
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) helps LLMs stay accurate, but feeding long documents into a prompt makes the model slow and expensive. This has motivated context compression, ranging from token pruning and summariza…
Does Video Summarization Require Videos? Quantifying the Effectiveness of Language in Video Summarization
Video summarization remains a huge challenge in computer vision due to the size of the input videos to be summarized. We propose an efficient, language-only video summarizer that achieves competitive accuracy with high d…

Despite some recent advances, automatic text summarization remains unreliable, elusive, and of limited practical use in applications. Two main problems with current summarization methods are well known: evaluation and fa…
Text SummarizationSemanticZip: A Pilot Framework for Lossy Text Compression with LLMs as Semantic Decompressors
Text compression for large language model (LLM) systems is usually framed as token deletion, retrieval, summarization, or exact reconstruction. We study a more aggressive but explicitly lossy setting: compress text into …
