LenAtten: An Effective Length Controlling Unit For Text Summarization (2021.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Fixed length summarization (FLS) requires generating summaries with a preset number of characters or words. |
| Approach: | They propose a length control unit called LenAtten to break this trade-off by generating a short and coherent summary with the target length. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves controllability and ROGUE scores and generalizes well. |
Improving User Controlled Table-To-Text Generation Robustness (2023.findings-eacl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | In experiments, models perform well on test sets coming from the same distribution as the train data but their performance drops when evaluated on realistic noisy user inputs. |
| Approach: | They propose a user controlled table-to-text generation task where users explore the content in a table by selecting cells and reading a natural language description thereof. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model gains 4.85 BLEU points on user noisy test cases and 1.4 on clean test cases. |
