Papers with sentence-level self-attentions
Unsupervised Extractive Summarization by Pre-training Hierarchical Transformers (2020.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods for document summarization use graphs and unlabeled documents . Existing models require labeled data, and it is expensive to create summarized documents. |
| Approach: | They propose to rank sentences using transformer attentions and pre-training objectives by unlabeled documents. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves state-of-the-art on unsupervised summarization and is less dependent on sentence positions. |
