STEREO: Scientific Text Reuse in Open Access Publications
Lukas Gienapp, Wolfgang Kircheis, Bjarne Sievers +2
We present the Webis-STEREO-21 dataset, a massive collection of Scientific Text Reuse in Open-access publications. It contains more than 91 million cases of reused text passages fo…
FastWARC: Optimizing Large-Scale Web Archive Analytics
Janek Bevendorff, Martin Potthast, Benno Stein
Web search and other large-scale web data analytics rely on processing archives of web pages stored in a standardized and efficient format. Since its introduction in 2008, the IIPC…
The Impact of Main Content Extraction on Near-Duplicate Detection
Maik Fröbe, Matthias Hagen, Janek Bevendorff +6
Commercial web search engines employ near-duplicate detection to ensure that users see each relevant result only once, albeit the underlying web crawls typically include (near-)dup…
BERTian Poetics: Constrained Composition with Masked LMs
Christopher Akiki, Martin Potthast
Masked language models have recently been interpreted as energy-based sequence models that can be generated from using a Metropolis--Hastings sampler. This short paper demonstrates…
Key Point Analysis via Contrastive Learning and Extractive Argument Summarization
Milad Alshomary, Timon Gurcke, Shahbaz Syed +5
Key point analysis is the task of extracting a set of concise and high-level statements from a given collection of arguments, representing the gist of these arguments. This paper p…
Modeling Proficiency with Implicit User Representations
Kim Breitwieser, Allison Lahnala, Charles Welch +2
We introduce the problem of proficiency modeling: Given a user's posts on a social media platform, the task is to identify the subset of posts or topics for which the user has some…
Summary Explorer: Visualizing the State of the Art in Text Summarization
Shahbaz Syed, Tariq Yousef, Khalid Al-Khatib +2
This paper introduces Summary Explorer, a new tool to support the manual inspection of text summarization systems by compiling the outputs of 55~state-of-the-art single document su…
Web Archive Analytics
Michael Völske, Janek Bevendorff, Johannes Kiesel +4
Web archive analytics is the exploitation of publicly accessible web pages and their evolution for research purposes -- to the extent organizationally possible for researchers. In…
Small-Text: Active Learning for Text Classification in Python
Christopher Schröder, Lydia Müller, Andreas Niekler +1
We introduce small-text, an easy-to-use active learning library, which offers pool-based active learning for single- and multi-label text classification in Python. It features nume…
Revisiting Uncertainty-based Query Strategies for Active Learning with Transformers
Christopher Schröder, Andreas Niekler, Martin Potthast
Active learning is the iterative construction of a classification model through targeted labeling, enabling significant labeling cost savings. As most research on active learning h…
Generating Informative Conclusions for Argumentative Texts
Shahbaz Syed, Khalid Al-Khatib, Milad Alshomary +2
The purpose of an argumentative text is to support a certain conclusion. Yet, they are often omitted, expecting readers to infer them rather. While appropriate when reading an indi…
Argument Undermining: Counter-Argument Generation by Attacking Weak Premises
Milad Alshomary, Shahbaz Syed, Arkajit Dhar +2
Text generation has received a lot of attention in computational argumentation research as of recent. A particularly challenging task is the generation of counter-arguments. So far…
