Sequence-Based Extractive Summarisation for Scientific Articles
This is an incremental improvement for researchers in NLP, focusing on domain-specific summarization.
The paper tackled extractive summarization of scientific articles by showing that a simple sequential tagging model based on document text alone achieves high results compared to a classification model, with minimal gains from additional features, and found that performance depends on the academic discipline.
This paper presents the results of research on supervised extractive text summarisation for scientific articles. We show that a simple sequential tagging model based only on the text within a document achieves high results against a simple classification model. Improvements can be achieved through additional sentence-level features, though these were minimal. Through further analysis, we show the potential of the sequential model relying on the structure of the document depending on the academic discipline which the document is from.
