An effective keyphrase extraction system requires to produce self-contained high quality phrases that are also key to the document topic. This paper presents BERT-JointKPE, a multi-task BERT-based model for keyphrase extraction. JointKPE employs a chunking network to identify high-quality phrases and a ranking network to learn their salience in the document. The model is trained jointly on the chunking task and the ranking task, balancing the estimation of keyphrase quality and salience. Experiments on two benchmarks demonstrate JointKPEs robust effectiveness with different BERT variants. Our analyses show that JointKPE has advantages in predicting long keyphrases and extracting phrases that are not entities but also meaningful.

Due to the manifold ranking method has a significant effect on the ranking of unknown data based on known data by using a weighted network, many researchers use the manifold ranking method to solve the document summarization task. However, their models only consider the original features but ignore the semantic features of sentences when they construct the weighted networks for the manifold ranking method. To solve this problem, we proposed two improved models based on the manifold ranking method. One is combining the topic model and manifold ranking method (JTMMR) to solve the document summarization task. This model not only uses the original feature, but also uses the semantic feature to represent the document, which can improve the accuracy of the manifold ranking method. The other one is combining the lifelong topic model and manifold ranking method (JLTMMR). On the basis of the JTMMR, this model adds the constraint of knowledge to improve the quality of the topic. At the same time, we also add the constraint of the relationship between documents to dig out a better document semantic features. The JTMMR model can improve the effect of the manifold ranking method by using the better semantic feature. Experiments show that our models can achieve a better result than other baseline models for multi-document summarization task. At the same time, our models also have a good performance on the single document summarization task. After combining with a few basic surface features, our model significantly outperforms some model based on deep learning in recent years. After that, we also do an exploring work for lifelong machine learning by analyzing the effect of adding feedback. Experiments show that the effect of adding feedback to our model is significant.
We study multi-answer retrieval, an under-explored problem that requires retrieving passages to cover multiple distinct answers for a given question. This task requires joint modeling of retrieved passages, as models should not repeatedly retrieve passages containing the same answer at the cost of missing a different valid answer. Prior work focusing on single-answer retrieval is limited as it cannot reason about the set of passages jointly. In this paper, we introduce JPR, a joint passage retrieval model focusing on reranking. To model the joint probability of the retrieved passages, JPR makes use of an autoregressive reranker that selects a sequence of passages, equipped with novel training and decoding algorithms. Compared to prior approaches, JPR achieves significantly better answer coverage on three multi-answer datasets. When combined with downstream question answering, the improved retrieval enables larger answer generation models since they need to consider fewer passages, establishing a new state-of-the-art.
Tables provide valuable knowledge that can be used to verify textual statements. While a number of works have considered table-based fact verification, direct alignments of tabular data with tokens in textual statements are rarely available. Moreover, training a generalized fact verification model requires abundant labeled training data. In this paper, we propose a novel system to address these problems. Inspired by counterfactual causality, our system identifies token-level salience in the statement with probing-based salience estimation. Salience estimation allows enhanced learning of fact verification from two perspectives. From one perspective, our system conducts masked salient token prediction to enhance the model for alignment and reasoning between the table and the statement. From the other perspective, our system applies salience-aware data augmentation to generate a more diverse set of training instances by replacing non-salient terms. Experimental results on TabFact show the effective improvement by the proposed salience-aware learning techniques, leading to the new SOTA performance on the benchmark. Our code is publicly available at https://github.com/luka-group/Salience-aware-Learning .
Keyphrases are capable of providing semantic metadata characterizing documents and producing an overview of the content of a document. Since keyphrase extraction is able to facilitate the management, categorization, and retrieval of information, it has received much attention in recent years. There are three approaches to address keyphrase extraction: (i) traditional two-step ranking method, (ii) sequence labeling and (iii) generation using neural networks. Two-step ranking approach is based on feature engineering, which is labor intensive and domain dependent. Sequence labeling is not able to tackle overlapping phrases. Generation methods (i.e., Sequence-to-sequence neural network models) overcome those shortcomings, so they have been widely studied and gain state-of-the-art performance. However, generation methods can not utilize context information effectively. In this paper, we propose a novelty Span Keyphrase Extraction model that extracts span-based feature representation of keyphrase directly from all the content tokens. In this way, our model obtains representation for each keyphrase and further learns to capture the interaction between keyphrases in one document to get better ranking results. In addition, with the help of tokens, our model is able to extract overlapped keyphrases. Experimental results on the benchmark datasets show that our proposed model outperforms the existing methods by a large margin.
Keyphrase Generation (KG) is the task of generating central topics from a given document or literary work, which captures the crucial information necessary to understand the content. Documents such as scientific literature contain rich meta-sentence information, which represents the logical-semantic structure of the documents. However, previous approaches ignore the constraints of document logical structure, and hence they mistakenly generate keyphrases from unimportant sentences. To address this problem, we propose a new method called Sentence Selective Network (SenSeNet) to incorporate the meta-sentence inductive bias into KG. In SenSeNet, we use a straight-through estimator for end-to-end training and incorporate weak supervision in the training of the sentence selection module. Experimental results show that SenSeNet can consistently improve the performance of major KG models based on seq2seq framework, which demonstrate the effectiveness of capturing structural information and distinguishing the significance of sentences in KG task.
