### Dataset Summary

Extreme Summarization (XSum) Dataset.

There are three features:
  - document: Input news article.
  - summary: One sentence summary of the article.
  - id: BBC ID of the article.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

#### default

- **Size of downloaded dataset files:** 257.30 MB
- **Size of the generated dataset:** 532.26 MB
- **Total amount of disk used:** 789.56 MB

An example of 'validation' looks as follows.
```
{
    "document": "some-body",
    "id": "29750031",
    "summary": "some-sentence"
}
```

### Data Fields

The data fields are the same among all splits.

#### default
- `document`: a `string` feature.
- `summary`: a `string` feature.
- `id`: a `string` feature.

### Data Splits
