[mlpack] Text summarization models in mlpack

[Marcus Edel]

Hello Namrata,

up to you, was just an idea, I think since you are already familiar with the
topic, you might be even faster, but I don't think we have to rush anything
here.

Thanks,
Marcus

If not, I'm really interested in implementing the pointer generator model <https://arxiv.org/pdf/1704.04368.pdf> for abstractive text summarization since I have implemented parts of it in another framework. This isn't a GSOC idea since I'm currently working and not a student. I was hoping to take it up if the mentors at mlpack have some time before GSOC begins in May. I have contributed to mlpack an year ago and would love to continue again now.
