A Simple yet Effective Method for Sentence Ordering

SIGDIAL (ACL) 2021  ·  Aili Shen, Timothy Baldwin ·

Sentence ordering is the task of arranging a given bag of sentences so as to maximise the coherence of the overall text. In this work, we propose a simple yet effective training method that improves the capacity of models to capture overall text coherence based on training over pairs of sentences/segments. Experimental results show the superiority of our proposed method in in- and cross-domain settings. The utility of our method is also verified over a multi-document summarisation task.
