    abstract = "Aspect-based summarization has seen significant advancements, especially in structured text. Yet, summarizing disordered, large-scale texts, like those found in social media and customer feedback, remains a significant challenge. Current research largely targets predefined aspects within structured texts, neglecting the complexities of dynamic and disordered environments. Addressing this gap, we introduce Disordered-DABS, a novel benchmark for dynamic aspect-based summarization tailored to unstructured text. Developed by adapting existing datasets for cost-efficiency and scalability, our comprehensive experiments and detailed human evaluations reveal that Disordered-DABS poses unique challenges to contemporary summarization models, including state-of-the-art language models such as GPT-3.5."
