HEADLINE GENERATION IS CONSIDERED ONE OF THE CHALLENGING TASKS IN TEXT SUMMARIZATION. THE INCREASING NUMBER OF SUCCESSFUL MODELS IN THE TEXT SUMMARIZATION FIELD HAS SHOWN THE ABILITY TO AUTOMATICALLY GENERATE INFORMATIVE HEADLINES FOR ARTICLES INSTEAD OF HAVING CATCHY, MISLEADING HEADLINES WRITTEN BY JOURNALISTS. HOWEVER, MOST OF THE CURRENT WORK IN HEADLINE GENERATION FOCUSES ON GENERATING ENGLISH HEADLINES ONLY, WITH VERY FEW PAPERS PROPOSING ARABIC HEADLINE GENERATION AND USING SMALL-SIZED DATASETS COMPARED TO ENGLISH DATASETS.
