Abstract
Cross-lingual summarization(CLS) is the process of generating a summary in one particular language for a source document in a different language. Low resource languages like Kannada greatly benefit from such systems because they help in delivering a concise representation of the same information in a different popular language. We propose a novel dataset generation pipeline and a first of its kind dataset that will aid in CLS for Kannada-English language pair. This work is also an attempt to inspect the existing systems and extend them to the Kannada-English language pair using our dataset.
