• Abstract summary: We propose FactGraph, a method that decomposes the document and the summary into structured meaning representations (MRs) MRs describe core semantic concepts and their relations, aggregating the main content in both document and summary in a canonical form, and reducing data sparsity. Experiments on different benchmarks for evaluating factuality show that FactGraph outperforms previous approaches by up to 15%.

• Abstract: Despite recent improvements in abstractive summarization, most current approaches generate summaries that are not factually consistent with the source document, severely restricting their trust and usage in real-world applications. Recent works have shown promising improvements in factuality error identification using text or dependency arc entailments; however, they do not consider the entire semantic graph simultaneously. To this end, we propose FactGraph, a method that decomposes the document and the summary into structured meaning representations (MR), which are more suitable for factuality evaluation. MRs describe core semantic concepts and their relations, aggregating the main content in both document and summary in a canonical form, and reducing data sparsity. FactGraph encodes such graphs using a graph encoder augmented with structure-aware adapters to capture interactions among the concepts based on the graph connectivity, along with text representations using an adapter-based text encoder. Experiments on different benchmarks for evaluating factuality show that FactGraph outperforms previous approaches by up to 15%. Furthermore, FactGraph improves performance on identifying content verifiability errors and better captures subsentence-level factual inconsistencies.

  We propose a novel approach, Motif-consistent Counterfactuals with Adversarial Refinement (MotifCAR) for graph-level anomaly detection. The model combines the motif of one graph, the core subgraph containing the identification (category) information, and the contextual subgraph of another graph to produce a raw counterfactual graph. MotifCAR can generate high-quality counterfactual graphs.

  We propose Graph Context Transformation Network (GCT-Net) enhancing context information to conduct consensus guidance for progressive correspondence pruning. Specifically, we design the Graph Context Enhance Transformer which first generates the graph network and then transforms it into multi-branch graph contexts. To further apply the recalibrated graph contexts to the global domain, we propose the Graph Context Guidance Transformer.

  We propose a novel non-parametric subgraph matching framework, dubbed MatchExplainer, to explore explanatory subgraphs. It couples the target graph with other counterpart instances and identifies the most crucial joint substructure by minimizing the node corresponding-based distance. Experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets show the effectiveness of our MatchExplainer by outperforming all state-of-the-art parametric baselines with significant margins.

  We focus on leveraging citation graphs to improve scientific paper extractive summarization under different settings. Preliminary results demonstrate that citation graph is helpful even in a simple unsupervised framework. Motivated by this, we propose a Graph-based Supervised Summarization model (GSS) to achieve more accurate results on the task when large-scale labeled data are available.

Our model can also take advantage of graphs to guide the summary generation process, which is beneficial for generating coherent and concise summaries.
