Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use gradient-based rather than greedy optimization for the mmd-diff objective (ablation) | Comparative news summaries · Automatic evaluation across three news topics, two classifiers, and four prototype sizes | balanced accuracy | Mixed |
| Use gradient-based rather than greedy optimization for mmd-diff (ablation) | Beef Ban summaries · Human article classification | classification accuracy: 7% more accurate | Helped |
| Use the diversity-focused mmd-div objective rather than mmd-diff (ablation) | Comparative news summaries · News datasets, classifiers, and prototype sizes | balanced accuracy | Mixed |
| Use MMD-based comparative objectives rather than existing alternatives | Comparative news summaries · Three news topics, two classifiers, and four prototype sizes | balanced accuracy | Helped |
| Use mmd-critic rather than methods that maintain a fixed number of prototypes per group | USPS digit summaries · USPS | balanced accuracy | Hurt |
| Increase the number of selected prototypes | Comparative summarisation methods · News and USPS | balanced accuracy | Helped |
