由于免费的在线百科全书具有大量内容,因此Wikipedia和Wikidata是许多自然语言处理(NLP)任务的关键,例如信息检索,知识基础构建,机器翻译,文本分类和文本摘要。在本文中,我们介绍了Wikides,这是一个新颖的数据集,用于为文本摘要问题提供Wikipedia文章的简短描述。该数据集由6987个主题上的80K英语样本组成。我们设置了一种两阶段的摘要方法 - 描述生成(I阶段)和候选排名(II阶段)作为一种依赖于转移和对比学习的强大方法。对于描述生成,与其他小规模的预训练模型相比,T5和BART表现出了优越性。通过将对比度学习与Beam Search的不同输入一起应用,基于度量的排名模型优于直接描述生成模型,在主题独立拆分和独立于主题的独立拆分中,最高可达22个胭脂。此外,第II期中的结果描述得到了人类评估的支持,其中45.33%以上,而I阶段的23.66%则支持针对黄金描述。在情感分析方面,生成的描述无法有效地从段落中捕获所有情感极性,同时从黄金描述中更好地完成此任务。自动产生的新描述减少了人类为创建它们的努力,并丰富了基于Wikidata的知识图。我们的论文对Wikipedia和Wikidata产生了实际影响,因为有成千上万的描述。最后,我们预计Wikides将成为从短段落中捕获显着信息的相关作品的有用数据集。策划的数据集可公开可用:https://github.com/declare-lab/wikides。

Narrative summarization aims to produce a distilled version of a narrative to describe its most salient events and characters. Summarizing a narrative is challenging as it requires an understanding of event causality and character behaviors. To encourage research in this direction, we propose NarraSum, a large-scale narrative summarization dataset. It contains 122K narrative documents, which are collected from plot descriptions of movies and TV episodes with diverse genres, and their corresponding abstractive summaries. Experiments show that there is a large performance gap between humans and the state-of-the-art summarization models on NarraSum. We hope that this dataset will promote future research in summarization, as well as broader studies of natural language understanding and generation. The dataset is available at https://github.com/zhaochaocs/narrasum.

The research on text summarization for low-resource Indian languages has been limited due to the availability of relevant datasets. This paper presents a summary of various deep-learning approaches used for the ILSUM 2022 Indic language summarization datasets. The ISUM 2022 dataset consists of news articles written in Indian English, Hindi, and Gujarati respectively, and their ground-truth summarizations. In our work, we explore different pre-trained seq2seq models and fine-tune those with the ILSUM 2022 datasets. In our case, the fine-tuned SoTA PEGASUS model worked the best for English, the fine-tuned IndicBART model with augmented data for Hindi, and again fine-tuned PEGASUS model along with a translation mapping-based approach for Gujarati. Our scores on the obtained inferences were evaluated using ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2, and ROUGE-4 as the evaluation metrics.

Natural Language Generation (NLG) has improved exponentially in recent years thanks to the development of sequence-to-sequence deep learning technologies such as Transformer-based language models. This advancement has led to more fluent and coherent NLG, leading to improved development in downstream tasks such as abstractive summarization, dialogue generation and data-to-text generation. However, it is also apparent that deep learning based generation is prone to hallucinate unintended text, which degrades the system performance and fails to meet user expectations in many real-world scenarios. To address this issue, many studies have been presented in measuring and mitigating hallucinated texts, but these have never been reviewed in a comprehensive manner before. In this survey, we thus provide a broad overview of the research progress and challenges in the hallucination problem in NLG. The survey is organized into two parts: (1) a general overview of metrics, mitigation methods, and future directions; and (2) an overview of task-specific research progress on hallucinations in the following downstream tasks, namely abstractive summarization, dialogue generation, generative question answering, data-to-text generation, machine translation, and visual-language generation. This survey serves to facilitate collaborative efforts among researchers in tackling the challenge of hallucinated texts in NLG.

Nowadays, time-stamped web documents related to a general news query floods spread throughout the Internet, and timeline summarization targets concisely summarizing the evolution trajectory of events along the timeline. Unlike traditional document summarization, timeline summarization needs to model the time series information of the input events and summarize important events in chronological order. To tackle this challenge, in this paper, we propose a Unified Timeline Summarizer (UTS) that can generate abstractive and extractive timeline summaries in time order. Concretely, in the encoder part, we propose a graph-based event encoder that relates multiple events according to their content dependency and learns a global representation of each event. In the decoder part, to ensure the chronological order of the abstractive summary, we propose to extract the feature of event-level attention in its generation process with sequential information remained and use it to simulate the evolutionary attention of the ground truth summary. The event-level attention can also be used to assist in extracting summary, where the extracted summary also comes in time sequence. We augment the previous Chinese large-scale timeline summarization dataset and collect a new English timeline dataset. Extensive experiments conducted on these datasets and on the out-of-domain Timeline 17 dataset show that UTS achieves state-of-the-art performance in terms of both automatic and human evaluations.

传统上,文本简化被视为单语翻译任务,其中源文本及其简化的对应物之间的句子是对齐的。但是,尤其是对于更长的输入文档,总结文本(或完全删除相关内容)在简化过程中起重要作用,目前在现有数据集中尚未反映出该过程。同时,非英语语言的资源通常很少,并且对于培训新解决方案而言是过分的。为了解决这个问题,我们对可以共同总结和简化长源文档的系统提出了核心要求。我们进一步描述了基于德国Wikipedia和德国儿童词典“ Klexikon”的新数据集的创建,用于简化和摘要,包括近2900个文档。我们发布了一个与文档一致的版本,特别突出了摘要方面,并提供了统计证据,表明此资源也非常适合简化。代码和数据可在GitHub上找到:https://github.com/dennlinger/klexikon

随着大型语言模型的出现,抽象性摘要的方法取得了长足的进步,从而在应用程序中使用了帮助知识工人处理笨拙的文档收集的潜力。一个这样的环境是民权诉讼交换所(CRLC)(https://clearinghouse.net),其中发布了有关大规模民权诉讼,服务律师,学者和公众的信息。如今,CRLC中的摘要需要对律师和法律专业的学生进行广泛的培训,这些律师和法律专业的学生花费数小时了解多个相关文件,以便产生重要事件和结果的高质量摘要。在这种持续的现实世界摘要工作的激励下,我们引入了Multi-iplesum,这是由正在进行的CRLC写作中绘制的9,280个专家作者的摘要集。鉴于源文档的长度,多文章介绍了一个具有挑战性的多文档摘要任务,通常每个情况超过200页。此外,多胎sum与其多个目标摘要中的其他数据集不同,每个数据集都处于不同的粒度(从一句“极端”摘要到超过五百个单词的多段落叙述)。我们提供了广泛的分析,表明,尽管培训数据(遵守严格的内容和样式准则)中的摘要很高,但最新的摘要模型在此任务上的表现较差。我们发布了多体式的摘要方法,以及促进应用程序的开发,以协助CRLC的任务https://multilexsum.github.io。

上下文:堆栈溢出对于寻求编程问题答案的软件开发人员非常有帮助。先前的研究表明,越来越多的问题质量低,因此从潜在的答案者那里获得了更少的关注。 Gao等。提出了一个基于LSTM的模型(即BilstM-CC),以自动从代码片段中生成问题标题,以提高问题质量。但是,只有在问题主体中使用代码段无法为标题生成提供足够的信息,而LSTMS无法捕获令牌之间的远程依赖性。目的:本文提出了基于深度学习的新型模型CCBERT,旨在通过充分利用整个问题主体的双模式信息来增强问题标题生成的性能。方法:CCBERT遵循编码器范式范式,并使用Codebert将问题主体编码为隐藏的表示形式,堆叠的变压器解码器以生成预测的代币,以及附加的复制注意层来完善输出分布。编码器和解码器都执行多头自我注意操作,以更好地捕获远程依赖性。本文构建了一个数据集,该数据集包含大约200,000个高质量问题,该数据从Stack Overflow正式发布的数据中滤除,以验证CCBERT模型的有效性。结果:CCBERT优于数据集上的所有基线模型。对仅代码和低资源数据集进行的实验表明,CCBERT的优势性能较小。人类评估还显示了CCBERT关于可读性和相关标准的出色表现。

Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) is the task of automatically detecting and correcting errors in text. The task not only includes the correction of grammatical errors, such as missing prepositions and mismatched subject-verb agreement, but also orthographic and semantic errors, such as misspellings and word choice errors respectively. The field has seen significant progress in the last decade, motivated in part by a series of five shared tasks, which drove the development of rule-based methods, statistical classifiers, statistical machine translation, and finally neural machine translation systems which represent the current dominant state of the art. In this survey paper, we condense the field into a single article and first outline some of the linguistic challenges of the task, introduce the most popular datasets that are available to researchers (for both English and other languages), and summarise the various methods and techniques that have been developed with a particular focus on artificial error generation. We next describe the many different approaches to evaluation as well as concerns surrounding metric reliability, especially in relation to subjective human judgements, before concluding with an overview of recent progress and suggestions for future work and remaining challenges. We hope that this survey will serve as comprehensive resource for researchers who are new to the field or who want to be kept apprised of recent developments.

Aspect or query-based summarization has recently caught more attention, as it can generate differentiated summaries based on users' interests. However, the current dataset for aspect or query-based summarization either focuses on specific domains, contains relatively small-scale instances, or includes only a few aspect types. Such limitations hinder further explorations in this direction. In this work, we take advantage of crowd-sourcing knowledge on Wikipedia.org and automatically create a high-quality, large-scale open-domain aspect-based summarization dataset named OASum, which contains more than 3.7 million instances with around 1 million different aspects on 2 million Wikipedia pages. We provide benchmark results on OAsum and demonstrate its ability for diverse aspect-based summarization generation. To overcome the data scarcity problem on specific domains, we also perform zero-shot, few-shot, and fine-tuning on seven downstream datasets. Specifically, zero/few-shot and fine-tuning results show that the model pre-trained on our corpus demonstrates a strong aspect or query-focused generation ability compared with the backbone model. Our dataset and pre-trained checkpoints are publicly available.

Cross-Lingual Summarization (CLS) aims at generating summaries in one language for the given documents in another language. CLS has attracted wide research attention due to its practical significance in the multi-lingual world. Though great contributions have been made, existing CLS works typically focus on short documents, such as news articles, short dialogues and guides. Different from these short texts, long documents such as academic articles and business reports usually discuss complicated subjects and consist of thousands of words, making them non-trivial to process and summarize. To promote CLS research on long documents, we construct Perseus, the first long-document CLS dataset which collects about 94K Chinese scientific documents paired with English summaries. The average length of documents in Perseus is more than two thousand tokens. As a preliminary study on long-document CLS, we build and evaluate various CLS baselines, including pipeline and end-to-end methods. Experimental results on Perseus show the superiority of the end-to-end baseline, outperforming the strong pipeline models equipped with sophisticated machine translation systems. Furthermore, to provide a deeper understanding, we manually analyze the model outputs and discuss specific challenges faced by current approaches. We hope that our work could benchmark long-document CLS and benefit future studies.

Modern multi-document summarization (MDS) methods are based on transformer architectures. They generate state of the art summaries, but lack explainability. We focus on graph-based transformer models for MDS as they gained recent popularity. We aim to improve the explainability of the graph-based MDS by analyzing their attention weights. In a graph-based MDS such as GraphSum, vertices represent the textual units, while the edges form some similarity graph over the units. We compare GraphSum's performance utilizing different textual units, i. e., sentences versus paragraphs, on two news benchmark datasets, namely WikiSum and MultiNews. Our experiments show that paragraph-level representations provide the best summarization performance. Thus, we subsequently focus oAnalysisn analyzing the paragraph-level attention weights of GraphSum's multi-heads and decoding layers in order to improve the explainability of a transformer-based MDS model. As a reference metric, we calculate the ROUGE scores between the input paragraphs and each sentence in the generated summary, which indicate source origin information via text similarity. We observe a high correlation between the attention weights and this reference metric, especially on the the later decoding layers of the transformer architecture. Finally, we investigate if the generated summaries follow a pattern of positional bias by extracting which paragraph provided the most information for each generated summary. Our results show that there is a high correlation between the position in the summary and the source origin.

文本生成的广泛使用的评估指标要么与更长的文本效果不错,要么无法评估文本质量的所有方面。在本文中,我们引入了一个名为SMART的新指标,以减轻此类限制。具体而言,我们将句子视为匹配的基本单位,而不是代币,并使用句子匹配函数来匹配匹配候选和参考句子。还将候选句子与源文件中的句子进行了比较,以允许接地(例如,事实)评估。我们的结果表明,我们提出的指标与基于模型的匹配函数的系统级相关性优于萨姆瓦尔摘要元评估数据集上的所有竞争指标指标。后者不使用任何神经模型,这在模型开发阶段很有用,在这些阶段,资源可以受到限制且需要快速评估。最后,我们还进行了广泛的分析,表明我们提出的指标与较长的摘要很好地运行,并且对特定模型的偏见较小。
