Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We present four experiments with summary evaluation approaches that use little or no human input in the form of model summaries or human judgements. We investigate whether system-produced summaries can be used to improve predictions of summary quality when few or no human summaries are available. We also validate our previous findings that measures of input-summary similarity and input cohesiveness are predictive of summary quality. We analyze the performance of our methods in predicting the human assigned scores for summarization systems from the 2008 and 2009 Text Analysis Conferences. Input-summary similarity metrics obtain correlations of about 0.7 with manual pyramid scores on the TAC ’09 data. Using only a collection of system summaries in place of gold standard, the correlation is 0.9. We also show that properties of input cohesiveness can predict the average system score with good accuracies.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
