# What does this PR do?

[Sorry for the spams, GitHub had some issues]

Same as #24075, but that PR got freezed after I force pushed (after rebase), and my changes to address the comments were not able to appear)

(amy have already approved #24075)

Byebye!

# PEGASUS-X

## Overview

The PEGASUS-X model was proposed in [Investigating Efficiently Extending Transformers for Long Input Summarization](https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.04347)  by Jason Phang, Yao Zhao and Peter J. Liu.

PEGASUS-X (PEGASUS eXtended) extends the PEGASUS models for long input summarization through additional long input pretraining and using staggered block-local attention with global tokens in the encoder.

The abstract from the paper is the following:

*While large pretrained Transformer models have proven highly capable at tackling natural language tasks, handling long sequence inputs continues to be a significant challenge. One such task is long input summarization, where inputs are longer than the maximum input context of most pretrained models. Through an extensive set of experiments, we investigate what model architectural changes and pretraining paradigms can most efficiently adapt a pretrained Transformer for long input summarization. We find that a staggered, block-local Transformer with global encoder tokens strikes a good balance of performance and efficiency, and that an additional pretraining phase on long sequences meaningfully improves downstream summarization performance. Based on our findings, we introduce PEGASUS-X, an extension of the PEGASUS model with additional long input pretraining to handle inputs of up to 16K tokens. PEGASUS-X achieves strong performance on long input summarization tasks comparable with much larger models while adding few additional parameters and not requiring model parallelism to train.*

Tips:

* PEGASUS-X uses the same tokenizer as PEGASUS.
