• Abstract: Keyphrase Generation (KPG) is a longstanding task in NLP with widespread applications. The advent of sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) pre-trained language models (PLMs) has ushered in a transformative era for KPG, yielding promising performance improvements. However, many design decisions remain unexplored and are often made arbitrarily. This paper undertakes a systematic analysis of the influence of model selection and decoding strategies on PLM-based KPG. We begin by elucidating why seq2seq PLMs are apt for KPG, anchored by an attention-driven hypothesis. We then establish that conventional wisdom for selecting seq2seq PLMs lacks depth: (1) merely increasing model size or performing task-specific adaptation is not parameter-efficient; (2) although combining in-domain pre-training with task adaptation benefits KPG, it does partially hinder generalization. Regarding decoding, we demonstrate that while greedy search achieves strong F1 scores, it lags in recall compared with sampling-based methods. Based on these insights, we propose DeSel, a likelihood-based decode-select algorithm for seq2seq PLMs. DeSel improves greedy search by an average of 4.7% semantic F1 across five datasets. Our collective findings pave the way for deeper future investigations into PLM-based KPG.

  Knowledge Graph Query Embedding (KGQE) aims to embed First-Order Logic (FOL) queries in a low-dimensional KG space for complex reasoning over incomplete KGs. Recent studies integrate various external information (such as entity types and relation context) to better capture the logical semantics of FOL queries. We propose an effective Query Instruction Parsing (QIPP) that captures latent query patterns from code-like query instructions.

  Keyphrase generation (KPG) aims to automatically generate a collection of phrases representing the core concepts of a given document. We introduce a generate-then-select framework decomposing KPG into two steps, where we adopt a one2set-based model as generator to produce candidates and then use an LLM as selector to select keyphrases from these candidates. Our framework significantly surpasses state-of-the-art models, especially in absent keyphrase prediction.

  This study addresses the application of encoder-only Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs) in keyphrase generation (KPG) With encoder-only PLMs, although KPE with Conditional Random Fields slightly excels in identifying present keyphrases, the KPG formulation renders a broader spectrum of keyphrase predictions. We also identify a favorable parameter allocation towards model depth rather than width when employing encoder-decoder architectures with encoder-only PLMs.

  We propose a subgraph-aware self-attention mechanism to imitate the GNN for performing structured reasoning.

Experiments show that ReasoningLM surpasses state-of-the-art models by a large margin, even with fewer updated parameters and less training data.
