NLP Summarizer Model for ES 8.2.2

I wonder if ES 8.2.2 already supports a PyTorch NLP model for summarization?

Eg. sshleifer/distilbart-cnn-12-6 · Hugging Face

It's not an option in eland's current supported task types.

It is a generative model, ie. given a long text, will produce a short text.

If it cannot be formulated with current eland, could I do it programmatically like this way?

I'd be interested to know what's currently possible, and if not yet, when will it be available?

That summarizer is BART model.

Thanks,
Sim

Hi Sim

Summarization isn't a task that is supported in any version of ES yet. I opened an GH issue for the enhancement requests at Support NLP summarization models · Issue #87548 · elastic/elasticsearch · GitHub, please upvote.

The good news is that Question Answering models will be supported in 8.3 and new features are being added all the time.

Nice @dkyle! Upvoted.

That's cool, having Q&A in 8.3.

Before you saying that, I thought it's already in 8.2.2 because eland has question_answering task_type option already.
