'''Automatic summarization''' is the process of shortening a set of data computationally, to create a subset (a [[Abstract (summary)|summary]]) that represents the most important or relevant information within the original content. [[Artificial intelligence]] [[algorithm|algorithms]] are commonly developed and employed to achieve this, specialized for different types of data.

[[Text]] summarization is usually implemented by [[natural language processing]] methods, designed to locate the most informative sentences in a given document.<ref name="Torres2014">{{cite book|author1=Torres-Moreno, Juan-Manuel|title=Automatic Text Summarization|url=https://www.wiley.com/en-gb/Automatic+Text+Summarization-p-9781848216686|date=1 October 2014|publisher=Wiley|isbn=978-1-848-21668-6|pages=320–}}</ref> On the other hand, visual content can be summarized using [[computer vision]] algorithms. [[Image]] summarization is the subject of ongoing research; existing approaches typically attempt to display the most representative images from a given image collection, or generate a video that only includes the most important content from the entire collection.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Pan|first1=Xingjia|last2=Tang|first2=Fan|last3=Dong|first3=Weiming|last4=Ma|first4=Chongyang|last5=Meng|first5=Yiping|last6=Huang|first6=Feiyue|last7=Lee|first7=Tong-Yee|last8=Xu|first8=Changsheng|date=2021-04-01|title=Content-Based Visual Summarization for Image Collection|journal=IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics|volume=27|issue=4|pages=2298–2312|doi=10.1109/tvcg.2019.2948611|pmid=31647438|s2cid=204865221|issn=1077-2626}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|date=January 10, 2018|title=WIPO PUBLISHES PATENT OF KT FOR "IMAGE SUMMARIZATION SYSTEM AND METHOD" (SOUTH KOREAN INVENTORS)|work=US Fed News Service|url=https://www.proquest.com/docview/1986931333|access-date=January 22, 2021|id={{ProQuest|1986931333}}}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Li Tan|last2=Yangqiu Song|last3=Shixia Liu|last4=Lexing Xie|date=February 2012|title=ImageHive: Interactive Content-Aware Image Summarization|journal=IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications|volume=32|issue=1|pages=46–55|doi=10.1109/mcg.2011.89|pmid=24808292|s2cid=7668289|issn=0272-1716}}</ref> Video summarization algorithms identify and extract from the original video content the most important frames (''key-frames''), and/or the most important video segments (''key-shots''), normally in a temporally ordered fashion.<ref name="PalPetrosino2012">{{cite book|author1=Sankar K.
