Abstract

In one embodiment, a sequence of input words is received. Each of the input words is encoded as an indicator vector, wherein a sequence of the indicator vectors captures features of the sequence of input words. The sequence of the indicator vectors is then mapped to a distribution of a contextual probability of a first output word in a sequence of output words. For each subsequent output word, the sequence of the indicator vectors is encoded with a context, wherein the context comprises a previously mapped contextual probability distribution of a fixed window of previous output words; and the encoded sequence of the indicator vectors and the context is mapped to the distribution of the contextual probability of the subsequent output word. Finally, a condensed summary is generated using a decoder by maximizing the contextual probability of each of the output words.
