TVRecap
TVRecap a story generation dataset that requires generating detailed TV show episode recaps from a brief summary and a set of documents describing the characters involved. Unlike other story generation datasets, TVRecap contains stories that are authored by professional screenwriters and that feature complex interactions among multiple characters. Generating stories in TVRecap requires drawing relevant information from the lengthy provided documents about characters based on the brief summary. In addition, by swapping the input and output, TVRecap can serve as a challenging testbed for abstractive summarization.
