Combining A Deep Reinforced Model for Abstractive Summarization and Get To The Point: Summarization with Pointer-Generator Networks

Model Description

  • LSTM based Sequence-to-Sequence model for Abstractive Summarization
  • Pointer mechanism for handling Out of Vocabulary (OOV) words See et al. (2017)
  • Intra-temporal and Intra-decoder attention for handling repeated words Paulus et al. (2018)
  • Self-critic policy gradient training along with MLE training Paulus et al. (2018)

Prerequisites

  • Pytorch
  • Tensorflow
  • Python 2 & 3
  • rouge

Data

  • Download train and valid pairs (article, title) of OpenNMT provided Gigaword dataset from here
  • Copy files train.article.txt, train.title.txt, valid.article.filter.txtand valid.title.filter.txt to data/unfinished folder
  • Files are already preprcessed

Creating .bin files and vocab file

  • The model accepts data in the form of .bin files.
  • To convert .txt file into .bin file and chunk them further, run (requires Python 2 & Tensorflow):
python make_data_files.py
  • You will find the data in data/chunked folder and vocab file in data folder

Training

  • As suggested in Paulus et al. (2018), first pretrain the seq-to-seq model using MLE (with Python 3):
python train.py --train_mle=yes --train_rl=no --mle_weight=1.0
  • Next, find the best saved model on validation data by running (with Python 3):
python eval.py --task=validate --start_from=0005000.tar
  • After finding the best model (lets say 0100000.tar) with high rouge-l f score, load it and run (with Python 3):
python train.py --train_mle=yes --train_rl=yes --mle_weight=0.25 --load_model=0100000.tar --new_lr=0.0001

for MLE + RL training (or)

python train.py --train_mle=no --train_rl=yes --mle_weight=0.0 --load_model=0100000.tar --new_lr=0.0001

for RL training

Validation

  • To perform validation of RL training, run (with Python 3):
python eval.py --task=validate --start_from=0100000.tar

Testing

  • After finding the best model of RL training (lets say 0200000.tar), evaluate it on test data & get all rouge metrics by running (with Python 3):
python eval.py --task=test --load_model=0200000.tar
