Attend to the beginning: A study on using bidirectional attention for extractive summarization | Ahmed Magooda

9 Feb 2020 | Abstract: | Forum discussion data differ in both structure and properties from generic
form of textual data such as news. Henceforth, summarization techniques should,
in turn, make use of such differences, and craft models that can benefit from
the structural nature of discussion data. In this work, we propose attending to
the beginning of a document, to improve the performance of extractive
summarization models when applied to forum discussion data. Evaluations
demonstrated that with the help of bidirectional attention mechanism, attending
to the beginning of a document (initial comment/post) in a discussion thread,
can introduce a consistent boost in ROUGE scores, as well as introducing a new
State Of The Art (SOTA) ROUGE scores on the forum discussions dataset.
Additionally, we explored whether this hypothesis is extendable to other
generic forms of textual data. We make use of the tendency of introducing
important information early in the text, by attending to the first few
sentences in generic textual data. Evaluations demonstrated that attending to
introductory sentences using bidirectional attention, improves the performance
of extractive summarization models when even applied to more generic form of
textual data. | Source: | arXiv, 2002.3405 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
