Summarization
Summarization involves creating a smaller summary of multiple longer documents. This can be useful for distilling long documents into the core pieces of information.
The recommended way to get started using a summarization chain is:
from langchain.chains.summarize import load_summarize_chain
chain = load_summarize_chain(llm, chain_type="map_reduce")
chain.run(docs)
The following resources exist:
- Summarization Notebook: A notebook walking through how to accomplish this task.
Additional related resources include:
- Utilities for working with Documents: Guides on how to use several of the utilities which will prove helpful for this task, including Text Splitters (for splitting up long documents).
- CombineDocuments Chains: A conceptual overview of specific types of chains by which you can accomplish this task.
- Data Augmented Generation: An overview of data augmented generation, which is the general concept of combining external data with LLMs (of which this is a subset).
