Rewards with Negative Examples for Reinforced Topic-Focused Abstractive Summarization

no code implementations EMNLP (newsum) 2021 Khalil Mrini, Can Liu, Markus Dreyer

We introduce a deep reinforcement learning approach to topic-focused abstractive summarization, trained on rewards with a novel negative example baseline.

On Conditional and Compositional Language Model Differentiable Prompting

no code implementations4 Jul 2023 Jonathan Pilault, Can Liu, Mohit Bansal, Markus Dreyer

Prompts have been shown to be an effective method to adapt a frozen Pretrained Language Model (PLM) to perform well on downstream tasks.

Faithfulness-Aware Decoding Strategies for Abstractive Summarization

1 code implementation6 Mar 2023 David Wan, Mengwen Liu, Kathleen McKeown, Markus Dreyer, Mohit Bansal

We present a systematic study of the effect of generation techniques such as beam search and nucleus sampling on faithfulness in abstractive summarization.

FactGraph: Evaluating Factuality in Summarization with Semantic Graph Representations

2 code implementations NAACL 2022 Leonardo F. R. Ribeiro, Mengwen Liu, Iryna Gurevych, Markus Dreyer, Mohit Bansal

Despite recent improvements in abstractive summarization, most current approaches generate summaries that are not factually consistent with the source document, severely restricting their trust and usage in real-world applications.

Evaluating the Tradeoff Between Abstractiveness and Factuality in Abstractive Summarization

no code implementations5 Aug 2021 Markus Dreyer, Mengwen Liu, Feng Nan, Sandeep Atluri, Sujith Ravi

Neural models for abstractive summarization tend to generate output that is fluent and well-formed but lacks semantic faithfulness, or factuality, with respect to the input documents.

Transductive Learning for Abstractive News Summarization

no code implementations17 Apr 2021 Arthur Bražinskas, Mengwen Liu, Ramesh Nallapati, Sujith Ravi, Markus Dreyer

This applies to scenarios such as a news publisher training a summarizer on dated news and summarizing incoming recent news.

Transfer Learning for Neural Semantic Parsing

no code implementations WS 2017 Xing Fan, Emilio Monti, Lambert Mathias, Markus Dreyer

The goal of semantic parsing is to map natural language to a machine interpretable meaning representation language (MRL).
