Best Practices
Document Preparation
File Quality: Ensure documents are clearly formatted and readable
Content Organization: Well-structured documents produce better topic identification
Language Consistency: Single-language documents work best for accurate summarization
File Size: Consider breaking very large documents into smaller sections for optimal processing
Parameter Optimization
Topic Selection:
Use 1 topic for focused documents with a single main theme
Use 2-5 topics for documents with multiple distinct subjects
Use higher numbers for comprehensive reports or multi-faceted content
Word Count Planning:
5-15 words for bullet-point style summaries
20-50 words for brief paragraph summaries
50-100 words for detailed topic overviews
Content Types
Academic Papers: Use 3-5 topics with 30-50 words per topic
Business Reports: Use 2-4 topics with 20-40 words per topic
News Articles: Use 1-2 topics with 15-30 words per topic
Technical Documentation: Use 4-8 topics with 25-40 words per topic
Meeting Notes: Use 2-5 topics with 10-25 words per topic
Integration Considerations
Workflow Integration
Input Connections: Connect documents and parameters from other nodes for automated processing
Output Usage: Summaries can feed into reporting, analysis, or communication nodes
Batch Processing: Use multiple instances for processing document collections
Template Creation: Standardize topic and word count settings for consistent results
Performance Optimization
Document Preprocessing: Clean and format documents before summarization
Parameter Consistency: Use standardized settings across similar document types
Quality Control: Review summaries for accuracy and completeness
Iterative Refinement: Adjust parameters based on initial results
Use Cases
