The paper introduces CARPAS, a new task that dynamically refines user-provided aspects for aspect-based summarization in large language models (LLMs). It presents three new datasets and evaluates four prompting strategies, finding that LLMs tend to over-generate aspects, leading to overly long and misaligned summaries. To address this, the authors propose a two-stage framework that first generates lightweight scope guidance before aspect refinement and summarization, which improves focus, reduces over-generation, and enhances performance across all datasets.

The paper introduces BASSE, a multilingual meta‑evaluation dataset containing 2,040 human‑rated abstractive summaries produced manually or by five LLMs with four prompts. Annotators scored each summary on coherence, consistency, fluency, relevance, and 5W1H using a 5‑point Likert scale. Benchmarking shows proprietary LLM‑judge models best align with human judgments, followed by criteria‑specific automatic metrics, while open‑source judge LLMs perform poorly.

The study evaluates AI-generated summaries for cancer patients using a dual assessment framework that includes human experts and LLM-as-a-judge. Human domain experts—oncology clinicians and patient-facing care staff—assess summary quality on accuracy, clinical relevance, and readability. The research identifies limitations such as omissions and minor inaccuracies, which are then used to iteratively refine prompts, grounding, and safety guardrails.
