Abstractive Summarization models are generally conditioned on the source article. This would generate a summary with the central theme of the article. However, it would not be possible to generate a summary focusing on specific key areas of the article. To solve this problem, we introduce a novel method for abstractive summarization. We aim to use a transformer to generate summaries which are more tailored to the events in the text by using event information. We extract events from text, perform generalized pooling to get a representation for these events and add an event attention block in the decoder to aid the transformer model in summarization. We carried out experiments on CNN / Daily Mail dataset and the BBC Extreme Summarization dataset. We achieve comparable results on both these datasets, with less training and better inclusion of event information in the summaries as shown by human evaluation scores.
