abstract

We present a neural framework for opinion summarization from online product reviews which is knowledge-lean and only requires light supervision (e.g., in the form of product domain labels and user-provided ratings). Our method combines two weakly supervised components to identify salient opinions and form extractive summaries from multiple reviews: an aspect extractor trained under a multi-task objective, and a sentiment predictor based on multiple instance learning. We introduce an opinion summarization dataset that includes a training set of product reviews from six diverse domains and human-annotated development and test sets with gold standard aspect annotations, salience labels, and opinion summaries. Automatic evaluation shows significant improvements over baselines, and a large-scale study indicates that our opinion summaries are preferred by human judges according to multiple criteria.

Learning to Control Summaries with Score Ranking

cs.CL · 2026-04-19 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

A score-ranking loss enables controllable summarization by aligning outputs to evaluation scores, matching SOTA performance with dimension-specific control on LLaMA, Qwen, and Mistral.
