BSDAR: Beam Search Decoding with Attention Reward in Neural Keyphrase Generation

17 Sep 2019  ·  Iftitahu Ni'mah, Vlado Menkovski, Mykola Pechenizkiy ·

This study mainly investigates two decoding problems in neural keyphrase generation: sequence length bias and beam diversity. We introduce an extension of beam search inference based on word-level and n-gram level attention score to adjust and constrain Seq2Seq prediction at test time. Results show that our proposed solution can overcome the algorithm bias to shorter and nearly identical sequences, resulting in a significant improvement of the decoding performance on generating keyphrases that are present and absent in source text.
