Sentence Fusion is the task of combining several independent sentences into a single coherent text. Sentence Fusion is important in many NLP applications, including retrieval-based dialogue, text summarization and question answering.

Leveraging Pre-trained Checkpoints for Sequence Generation Tasks
Unsupervised pre-training of large neural models has recently revolutionized Natural Language Processing.
Encode, Tag, Realize: High-Precision Text Editing
We propose LaserTagger - a sequence tagging approach that casts text generation as a text editing task.
Scoring Sentence Singletons and Pairs for Abstractive Summarization
There is thus a crucial gap between sentence selection and fusion to support summarizing by both compressing single sentences and fusing pairs.
DiscoFuse: A Large-Scale Dataset for Discourse-Based Sentence Fusion
We author a set of rules for identifying a diverse set of discourse phenomena in raw text, and decomposing the text into two independent sentences.
Felix: Flexible Text Editing Through Tagging and Insertion
We achieve this by decomposing the text-editing task into two sub-tasks: tagging to decide on the subset of input tokens and their order in the output text and insertion to in-fill the missing tokens in the output not present in the input.
Understanding Points of Correspondence between Sentences for Abstractive Summarization
We create a dataset containing the documents, source and fusion sentences, and human annotations of points of correspondence between sentences.
Seq2Edits: Sequence Transduction Using Span-level Edit Operations
For text normalization, sentence fusion, and grammatical error correction, our approach improves explainability by associating each edit operation with a human-readable tag.
Semantically Driven Sentence Fusion: Modeling and Evaluation
Sentence fusion is the task of joining related sentences into coherent text.
Learning to Fuse Sentences with Transformers for Summarization
The ability to fuse sentences is highly attractive for summarization systems because it is an essential step to produce succinct abstracts.
Data-to-Text Generation with Iterative Text Editing
Our approach maximizes the completeness and semantic accuracy of the output text while leveraging the abilities of recent pre-trained models for text editing (LaserTagger) and language modeling (GPT-2) to improve the text fluency.
