The XWikis Corpus

You can create the corpus using the instructions below. The original XWikis corpus is available at XWikis.

Instructions to re-create our corpus and extract other languages are available here.

Cross-lingual Summarisation Code

Our code is based on Fairseq and mBART/mBART50. You'll find our clone of Fairseq and the code extension to implement our models here and instructions to pre-process the data, and train and evaluate our models here.
