• Title: Are Paraphrases Generated by Large Language Models Invertible?
• Authors: Rafael Rivera Soto, Barry Chen, Nicholas Andrews,
• Abstract summary: We consider the problem of paraphrase inversion: given a paraphrased document, attempt to recover the original text. We fine-tune paraphrase inversion models, both with and without additional author-specific context. We show that, when starting from paraphrased machine-generated text, we can recover significant portions of the document using a learned inversion model.

• Abstract: Large language models can produce highly fluent paraphrases while retaining much of the original meaning. While this capability has a variety of helpful applications, it may also be abused by bad actors, for example to plagiarize content or to conceal their identity. This motivates us to consider the problem of paraphrase inversion: given a paraphrased document, attempt to recover the original text. To explore the feasibility of this task, we fine-tune paraphrase inversion models, both with and without additional author-specific context to help guide the inversion process. We explore two approaches to author-specific inversion: one using in-context examples of the target author's writing, and another using learned style representations that capture distinctive features of the author's style. We show that, when starting from paraphrased machine-generated text, we can recover significant portions of the document using a learned inversion model. When starting from human-written text, the variety of source writing styles poses a greater challenge for invertability. However, even when the original tokens can't be recovered, we find the inverted text is stylistically similar to the original, which significantly improves the performance of plagiarism detectors and authorship identification systems that rely on stylistic markers.

  Authorship Verification (AV) is a text classification task concerned with inferring whether a candidate text has been written by one specific author or by someone else. It has been shown that many AV systems are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, where a malicious author actively tries to fool the classifier by either concealing their writing style, or by imitating the style of another author.

  We name these tasks Paraphrase Type Generation and Paraphrase Type Detection. Our results suggest that while current techniques perform well in a binary classification scenario, the inclusion of fine-grained paraphrase types poses a significant challenge. We believe paraphrase types can unlock a new paradigm for developing paraphrase models and solving tasks in the future.

  ParaAMR is a large-scale syntactically diverse paraphrase dataset created by abstract meaning representation back-translation. We show that ParaAMR can be used to improve on three NLP tasks: learning sentence embeddings, syntactically controlled paraphrase generation, and data augmentation for few-shot learning.

  Authors writing documents imprint identifying information within their texts: vocabulary, registry, punctuation, misspellings, or even emoji usage. Previous works use hand-crafted features or classification tasks to train their authorship models, leading to poor performance on out-of-domain authors. We propose a contrastively trained model fit to learn textbfauthorship embeddings instead of semantics.

  We focus on a novel problem, letter-level online writer-id, which requires only a few trajectories of written letters as identification cues. A main challenge is that a person often writes a letter in different styles from time to time. We refer to this problem as the variance of online writing styles (Var-O-Styles)

  In paraphrase generation, source sentences often contain phrases that should not be altered. Our solution is to provide the user with explicit tags that can be placed around any arbitrary segment of text to mean "don't change me!" The contribution of this work is a novel data generation technique using distant supervision.

  Our work uses syntactic transformations to softly "reorder'' the source sentence and guide our neural paraphrasing model. First, given an input sentence, we derive a set of feasible syntactic rearrangements using an encoder-decoder model. Next, we use each proposed rearrangement to produce a sequence of position embeddings, which encourages our final encoder-decoder paraphrase model to attend to the source words in a particular order.
