Abstract

Large Language Models work quite well with general-purpose data and many tasks in Natural Language Processing. However, they show several limitations when used for a task such as domain-specific abstractive text summarization. This paper identifies three of those limitations as research problems in the context of abstractive text summarization: 1) Quadratic complexity of transformer-based models with respect to the input text length; 2) Model Hallucination, which is a model's ability to generate factually incorrect text; and 3) Domain Shift, which happens when the distribution of the model's training and test corpus is not the same. Along with a discussion of the open research questions, this paper also provides an assessment of existing state-of-the-art techniques relevant to domain-specific text summarization to address the research gaps.
