Three questions: (1) does anyone have good examples of the google/pegasus models being used for summarization using the Automodal and Autotokenizer classes?

(2) Using the google/pegasus models, how do you set the minimum and/or maximum length for the generated summary?

(3) Is there a token maximum input for Pegasus (as there is with T-5 (512) and BART (1024)?

Thanks!
