Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use BART instead of the pointer-generator model | CDSR summarization · CDSR test | ROUGE-L: 35.81 -> 49.75 | Helped |
| Add CNN/DM intermediate pre-training (ablation) | BART · CDSR test | ROUGE-L: 49.75 -> 49.70 | No clear effect |
| Add PubMed intermediate pre-training (ablation) | BART · CDSR test | Flesch-Kincaid: 13.59 -> 13.30 | Helped |
| Add PubMed intermediate pre-training (ablation) | BART · CDSR test | ROUGE-L: 49.75 -> 49.97 | No clear effect |
| Add sequential CNN/DM and PubMed intermediate pre-training (ablation) | BART · CDSR test | ROUGE-L: 49.75 -> 50.24 | Helped |
| Use BERT extractive instead of Oracle extractive | Extractive summarization · CDSR test | ROUGE-L: 49.56 -> 24.59 | Hurt |
| Use BERT extractive instead of Oracle extractive | Extractive summarization · CDSR test | Flesch-Kincaid: 14.85 -> 13.44 | Helped |
| Use abstractive BART instead of BERT extractive | Summarization · CDSR test | ROUGE-L: 24.59 -> 49.75 | Helped |
