| Challenge: | Data-to-text annotations can be costly when dealing with tables with nontrivial structures. |
| Approach: | They propose a procedure for extracting semantic triples from tables that encodes their structures by exploiting table headers and table title. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method exploits the semantic dependencies between table headers and title to extract semantic triples from tables. |
ConvoSumm: Conversation Summarization Benchmark and Improved Abstractive Summarization with Argument Mining (2021.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Abstractive text summarization has primarily focused on modeling news articles . lack of standardized datasets for summarizing online conversations is a major problem . |
| Approach: | They propose to crowdsource four new datasets for summarizing online conversations . they incorporate argument mining through graph construction to directly model issues, viewpoints, and assertions present in a conversation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed models are compared against widely-used conversation summarization datasets and show comparable or improved results. |
