Substance over Style: Document-Level Targeted Content Transfer
Existing language models excel at writing from scratch, but many real-world scenarios require rewriting an existing document to fit a set of constraints. Although sentence-level rewriting has been fairly well-studied, little work has addressed the challenge of rewriting an entire document coherently. In this work, we introduce the task of document-level targeted content transfer and address it in the recipe domain, with a recipe as the document and a dietary restriction (such as vegan or dairy-free) as the targeted constraint. We propose a novel model for this task based on the generative pre-trained language model (GPT-2) and train on a large number of roughly-aligned recipe pairs (https://github.com/microsoft/document-level-targeted-content-transfer). Both automatic and human evaluations show that our model out-performs existing methods by generating coherent and diverse rewrites that obey the constraint while remaining close to the original document. Finally, we analyze our model's rewrites to assess progress toward the goal of making language generation more attuned to constraints that are substantive rather than stylistic.

Separating Style from Substance: Enhancing Cross-Genre Authorship Attribution through Data Selection and Presentation
The task of deciding whether two documents are written by the same author is challenging for both machines and humans. This task is even more challenging when the two documents are written about different topics (e.g. ba…
Authorship AttributionStyle Wins, Substance Loses: A Diagnosis of LLM-as-Judge in Idea Generation
However, whether these judges truly evaluate the scientific substance of ideas or are influenced by superficial stylistic presentation remains an open question. To address this question, we propose SciStyleBench, a unifi…

Stigma toward people who use substances (PWUS) is a leading barrier to seeking treatment.Further, those in treatment are more likely to drop out if they experience higher levels of stigmatization. While related concepts …
