Models\nwith a limited vocabulary can not solve it well, as new named entities can\nappear regularly in the news and these entities often should be in the\nheadline. News articles in morphologically rich languages such as Russian\nrequire model modifications due to a large number of possible word forms. This\nstudy aims to validate that models with a possibility of copying words from the\noriginal article performs better than models without such an option. The\nproposed model achieves a mean ROUGE score of 23 on the provided test dataset,\nwhich is 8 points greater than the result of a similar model without a copying\nmechanism. Moreover, the resulting model performs better than any known model\non the new dataset of Russian news.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1904.11475v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1904.11475v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"importance-of-copying-mechanism-for-news","repo_url":"https://github.com/IlyaGusev/summarus","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":{"status":"ok","spdx":"Apache-2.0"}}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"articles","task_name":"Articles"},{"task_slug":"headline-generation","task_name":"Headline Generation"},{"task_slug":"text-summarization","task_name":"Text Summarization"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
