Attend and select: A segment selective transformer for microblog hashtag generation

Hashtag generation aims to generate short and informal topical tags from a microblog post, in which tokens or phrases form the hashtags. These tokens or phrases may originate from primary fragmental textual pieces (e.g., segments) in the original text and are separated into different segments. However, conventional sequence-to-sequence generation methods are hard to filter out secondary information from different textual granularity and are not good at selecting crucial tokens. Thus, they are suboptimal in generating more condensed hashtags. In this work, we propose a modified Transformer-based generation model with adding a segments-selection procedure for the original encoding and decoding phases. The segments-selection phase is based on a novel Segments Selection Mechanism (SSM) to model different textual granularity on global text, local segments, and tokens, contributing to generating condensed hashtags. Specifically, it first attends to primary semantic segments and then transforms discontinuous segments from the source text into a sequence of hashtags by selecting crucial tokens. Extensive evaluations on the two datasets reveal our approach's superiority with significant improvements to the extraction and generation baselines. The code and datasets are available at https://github.com/OpenSUM/HashtagGen.
