Machine learning researchers have long struggled to create summarization models that generate accurate and consistent summaries. A major issue arises when a model’s knowledge conflicts with the knowledge in the input document, leading to factually inconsistent content. In this paper, the authors analyze the robustness of fine-tuning based summarization models to these knowledge conflicts, which they call factual adaptiveness. They find that while some models perform well on original datasets, their ability to adapt to new information is limited. To address this issue, the researchers introduce a controllable data augmentation method that allows for adjustable levels of knowledge conflict. This approach enhances the model’s ability to generate accurate and consistent summaries.

Summarization models often struggle to create accurate and consistent summaries because they may have conflicting knowledge with the information in the input document. Researchers are trying to find ways to make these models better at handling this kind of information. In this study, scientists tested how well some summarization models can handle different types of knowledge conflicts. They found that some models do better than others on original datasets but struggle when dealing with new information. To help models work better in the future, researchers developed a way to adjust the amount of conflicting information they are given.
