Dataset Card for "gov_report"
GOV_REPORT
A dataset "consisting of about 19.5k U.S. government reports with expert-written ab- stractive summaries.3 GOVREPORT has two impor- tant features: (1) It contains significantly longer documents (9.4k words) and summaries (553 words) than existing datasets, such as PubMed and arXiv (Cohan et al., 2018) (2) Salient content is spread throughout the documents, as opposed to cases where summary-worthy words are more heavily concentrated in specific parts of the document. These properties make GOVREPORT an important benchmark for producing long document summaries with multiple paragraphs.
