Text Summarization with Python Training Course
In Python Machine Learning, the Text Summarisation feature can read input text and generate a concise summary. This capability is accessible via the command line or as a Python API/library. One exciting application is the rapid creation of executive summaries—particularly valuable for organisations that need to review large volumes of text data before producing reports and presentations.
In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn how to use Python to build a simple application that automatically generates summaries of input text.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Use a command-line tool to summarise text.
- Design and implement Text Summarisation code using Python libraries.
- Evaluate three Python summarisation libraries: sumy 0.7.0, pysummarisation 1.0.4, and readless 1.0.17.
