PeerSum: A Peer Review Dataset for Abstractive Multi-document Summarization

Information Retrieval 2022-09-30 v2 Computation and Language

Abstract

We present PeerSum, a new MDS dataset using peer reviews of scientific publications. Our dataset differs from the existing MDS datasets in that our summaries (i.e., the meta-reviews) are highly abstractive and they are real summaries of the source documents (i.e., the reviews) and it also features disagreements among source documents. We found that current state-of-the-art MDS models struggle to generate high-quality summaries for PeerSum, offering new research opportunities.

Comments

This is because the paper has changed so much and the arxiv paper no longer represents the PeerSum
