# Dataset Description
RÚV Radio News (RRN) is an Icelandic-language abstractive summarization dataset. The dataset consists of almost 4k news stories from The Icelandic National Broadcasting Service (RÚV) collected from the years 2021 and 2022. The stories were sourced from the noon radio news program and comprises three parts for each story: an intro, the main story, and a summary. However, not all stories include all three parts.

The dataset can be used for various summarization tasks, including Intro + Main &#8594; Summary and Main &#8594; Intro. Typically, the introduction and summary provide an overview of the key points of the story, and sometimes they are identical. It's worth noting that the dataset features a significant number of COVID-19 and domestic news stories.
