Adaptive Planning for Multi-Attribute Controllable Summarization with Monte Carlo Tree Search
Controllable summarization moves beyond generic outputs toward human-aligned summaries guided by specified attributes. In practice, the interdependence among attributes makes it challenging for language models to satisfy correlated constraints consistently. Moreover, previous approaches often require per-attribute fine-tuning, limiting flexibility across diverse summary attributes. In this paper, we propose adaptive planning for multi-attribute controllable summarization (PACO), a training-free…

Finished "All the Sinners Bleed" by S.A. Cosby. Titus Crown, the first black sheriff of a rural VA county, is hunting down a serial killer amidst simmering racial tensions.
While Charon County is fictional, the given geography might make it Surry or Charles City counties, places I've spent a good amount of time working with sheriff's offices. Cosby nails the law enforcement vibe & mirrors my observations of race relations in SE VA.
4/5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐

A Black sheriff. A serial killer. A small town ready to…

This video essay about the look of Sinners (which was shot on 70mm IMAX and Ultra Panavision) brought up something I hadn't realised until now: the large format gives you a wide field of view with the look of a telephoto lens! What that means is that you get shallow depth of field like in closeup shots with the framing of a wider angle lens.
Personal observation: there's also very little barrel lens distortion that usually comes with wide shots on 35mm.

Screen grab of the movie Sinners by Ryan Coogler. A black pastor is standing inside a room made of white wooden planks and beams. He's forming a silhouette in front of an over-exposed white window. A cross is hanging on the wall screen left and a church boy is out of focus in the foreground. Green lines have been overlaid onto the image to underscore that straight lines at the edges of the frame are actually pretty straight.
A very wide shot from the modern remake of Magnificent Seven, which was shot on 35mm film using anamorphic lenses. Outdoor scene in a wild west town with wooden buildings. A group of at least a dozen people in period clothing is keeping their distance around the central character. He is a middle-aged man with short hair wearing a black dress coat. He's pointing a revolver towards a person just to the right of the viewer. This shot is not the same framing as the one from Sinners but it demons…

QUARTZ : QA-based Unsupervised Abstractive Refinement for Task-oriented Dialogue Summarization
Dialogue summarization aims to distill the core meaning of a conversation into a concise text. This is crucial for reducing the complexity and noise inherent in dialogue-heavy applications. While recent approaches typically train language models to mimic human-written summaries, such supervision is costly and often results in outputs that lack task-specific focus limiting their effectiveness in downstream applications, such as medical tasks. In this paper, we propose \app, a framework for task-…
