  abstract  = {In this paper, we propose an extractive multi-document summarization (MDS)
	system using joint optimization and active learning for content selection
	grounded in user feedback. Our method interactively obtains user feedback to
	gradually improve the results of a state-of-the-art integer linear programming
	(ILP) framework for MDS. Our methods complement fully automatic methods in
	producing high-quality summaries with a minimum number of iterations and
	feedbacks.
	We conduct multiple simulation-based experiments and analyze the effect of
	feedback-based concept selection in the ILP setup in order to maximize the
	user-desired content in the summary.},
