An Optimized Abstractive Text Summarization Model Using Peephole Convolutional LSTM
Abstractive text summarization that generates a summary by paraphrasing a long text remains an open significant problem for natural language processing. In this paper, we present an abstractive text summarization model, multi-layered attentional peephole convolutional LSTM (long short-term memory) (MAPCoL) that automatically generates a summary from a long text. We optimize parameters of MAPCoL using central composite design (CCD) in combination with the response surface methodology (RSM), which gives the highest accuracy in terms of summary generation. We record the accuracy of our model (MAPCoL) on a CNN/DailyMail dataset. We perform a comparative analysis of the accuracy of MAPCoL with that of the state-of-the-art models in different experimental settings. The MAPCoL also outperforms the traditional LSTM-based models in respect of semantic coherence in the output summary.
