A Semantically Motivated Approach to Compute ROUGE Scores
Elaheh ShafieiBavani ; Mohammad Ebrahimi ; Raymond Wong ; Fang Chen ;
Date 20 Oct 2017
AbstractROUGE is one of the first and most widely used evaluation metrics for text summarization. However, its assessment merely relies on surface similarities between peer and model summaries. Consequently, ROUGE is unable to fairly evaluate abstractive summaries including lexical variations and paraphrasing. Exploring the effectiveness of lexical resource-based models to address this issue, we adopt a graph-based algorithm into ROUGE to capture the semantic similarities between peer and model summaries. Our semantically motivated approach computes ROUGE scores based on both lexical and semantic similarities. Experiment results over TAC AESOP datasets indicate that exploiting the lexico-semantic similarity of the words used in summaries would significantly help ROUGE correlate better with human judgments.
