Abstract

Embodiments described herein provide a document summarization framework that employs an ensemble of summarization models, each of which is a modified version of a base summarization model to control hallucination. For example, a base summarization model may first be trained on a full training data set. The trained base summarization model is then fine-tuned using a first filtered subset of the training data which contains noisy data, resulting in an “anti-expert” model. The parameters of the anti-expert model are subtracted from the parameters of the trained base model to produce a final summarization model which yields robust factual performance.
