Global Optimization under Length Constraint for Neural Text Summarization

We propose a global optimization method under length constraint (GOLC) for neural text summarization models. GOLC increases the probabilities of generating summaries that have high evaluation scores, ROUGE in this paper, within a desired length. We compared GOLC with two optimization methods, a maximum log-likelihood and a minimum risk training, on CNN/Daily Mail and a Japanese single document summarization data set of The Mainichi Shimbun Newspapers. The experimental results show that a state-of-the-art neural summarization model optimized with GOLC generates fewer overlength summaries while maintaining the fastest processing speed; only 6.70{\%} overlength summaries on CNN/Daily and 7.8{\%} on long summary of Mainichi, compared to the approximately 20{\%} to 50{\%} on CNN/Daily Mail and 10{\%} to 30{\%} on Mainichi with the other optimization methods. We also demonstrate the importance of the generation of in-length summaries for post-editing with the dataset Mainich that is created with strict length constraints. The ex- perimental results show approximately 30{\%} to 40{\%} improved post-editing time by use of in-length summaries.
