Proceedings of the Workshop on Task-Focused Summarization and Question Answering - SumQA '06

Abstract

The Task-Focused Summarization and Question Answering workshop, to be held on July 23, 2006 in Sydney, aims to bring together the two communities of summarization and question answering by examining how to create output that is directed to a user's needs, i.e., how to create task-focused output. The user scenarios that are described in the accepted papers include the medical and computer domain, readers of short stories and also traditional multidocument news collections, some with interesting, and different, evaluation methodologies. By focusing on the benefits that summarization and question answering can have for users, we hope to contribute to the discussion of the evaluation in both areas.
