- ### Analysis of ROUGE Scores
95
 
96
- #### ROUGE-1:
97
- - **Facebook BART-large-cnn**: 42.949
98
- - **Enhanced BART-large-cnn**: 45.370
99
- - **BART-Large-CNN-scratch**: 44.070
100
 
101
- The ROUGE-1 score measures the overlap of unigrams (single words) between the generated summary and the reference summary. The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model achieved a ROUGE-1 score of 44.07, which is a significant improvement over the Facebook BART-large-cnn model (42.949) and close to the enhanced version (45.370). This indicates that the BART-Large-CNN-scratch model captures a substantial amount of relevant information from the source text.
 
102
 
103
- #### ROUGE-2:
104
- - **Facebook BART-large-cnn**: 20.815
105
- - **Enhanced BART-large-cnn**: 22.000
106
- - **BART-Large-CNN-scratch**: 21.060
107
 
108
- The ROUGE-2 score measures the overlap of bigrams (pairs of consecutive words) between the generated summary and the reference summary. The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model achieved a ROUGE-2 score of 21.06, which is again an improvement over the Facebook BART-large-cnn model (20.815) and close to the enhanced version (22.000). This indicates that the BART-Large-CNN-scratch model maintains good coherence and relevance in the summaries.
 
 
 
109
 
110
- #### ROUGE-L:
111
- - **Facebook BART-large-cnn**: 30.619
112
- - **Enhanced BART-large-cnn**: 31.170
113
- - **BART-Large-CNN-scratch**: 30.650
114
 
115
- The ROUGE-L score measures the longest common subsequence (LCS) between the generated summary and the reference summary. The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model achieved a ROUGE-L score of 30.65, which is slightly higher than the Facebook BART-large-cnn model (30.619) and close to the enhanced version (31.170). This suggests that the BART-Large-CNN-scratch model produces summaries that are well-structured and follow the sequence of the reference summaries closely.
 
116
 
117
- ### Implications
118
-
119
- 1. **Reproducibility**:
120
- - The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model successfully reproduced the performance of the Facebook BART-large-cnn model. This is evidenced by the close match in ROUGE scores and identical summaries generated for the same input text. This confirms the robustness and reliability of the BART architecture and the training methodology when applied to the CNN/DailyMail dataset.
121
-
122
- 2. **Enhanced Model Comparison**:
123
- - The enhanced BART-large-cnn model, which was fine-tuned for an additional epoch, shows slightly better ROUGE scores compared to both the Facebook BART-large-cnn and BART-Large-CNN-scratch models. This indicates that additional fine-tuning can further improve the model's performance in capturing relevant information and generating coherent summaries.
124
 
125
- 3. **Model Training from Scratch**:
126
- - Training the BART-large model from scratch using the CNN/DailyMail dataset resulted in competitive performance, closely matching the pre-trained and fine-tuned models. This highlights the effectiveness of the BART architecture in learning summarization tasks from scratch, given a large and high-quality dataset.
 
 
127
 
128
- 4. **Practical Applications**:
129
- - The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model is highly effective for text summarization tasks in English, particularly for news articles. It can be applied in various domains such as news aggregation, content summarization, and information retrieval where concise and accurate summaries are essential.
130
-
131
- ### Overall Appraisal
132
 
133
- The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model demonstrates competitive performance, successfully reproducing the results of the Facebook BART-large-cnn model. It achieves significant improvements in ROUGE scores and generates high-quality summaries, making it a robust tool for text summarization applications.
 
134
 
135
- ## Usage
 
136
 
137
- This model is highly effective for generating summaries in English texts, particularly in contexts similar to the news articles dataset upon which the model was trained. It can be used in various applications, including news aggregation, content summarization, and information retrieval.
 
138
 
139
- ## Limitations
140
 
141
- While the model excels in contexts similar to its training data (news articles), its performance might vary on text from other domains or in other languages. Future enhancements could involve expanding the training data to include more diverse text sources, which would improve its generalizability and robustness.

96
 
97
+ ##### Facebook BART-Large-CNN Summary:
98
+ "The tower is 324 metres (1,063 ft) tall, about the same height as an 81-storey building. Its base is square, measuring 125 metres (410 ft) on each side. During its construction, the Eiffel Tower surpassed the Washington Monument to become the tallest man-made structure in the world."

+ ##### BART-Large-CNN-scratch Summary:
101
+ "The tower is 324 metres (1,063 ft) tall, about the same height as an 81-storey building. Its base is square, measuring 125 metres (410 ft) on each side. It is the second tallest free-standing structure in France after the Millau Viaduct."
 
 
102
 
103
+ - **Comparison**:
104
+ - Both summaries start with identical descriptions of the Eiffel Tower's height and base dimensions.
105
+ - The Facebook summary mentions the historical significance of the Eiffel Tower surpassing the Washington Monument.
106
+ - The scratch summary includes the detail of the Eiffel Tower being the second tallest free-standing structure in France, providing a different historical context.
107
 
108
+ #### Paper Clip Article Summary Comparison
 
 
 
109
 
110
+ ##### Facebook BART-Large-CNN Summary:
111
+ "The earliest form of the paper clip dates back to the 13th century. The most widely recognized design is attributed to the Norwegian inventor Johan Vaaler. The design of paper clips has continued to evolve, with various shapes and sizes available on the market. During World War II, paper clips became a symbol of resistance in Norway."
112
 
113
+ ##### BART-Large-CNN-scratch Summary:
114
+ "The paper clip dates back to the 13th century, when a device made of a bent metal wire was used to hold sheets of paper together. The most widely recognized design is attributed to the Norwegian inventor Johan Vaaler, who received a patent for his paper clip design in 1899. During World War II, the paper clip became a symbol of resistance in Norway."
 
 
 
 
 
115
 
116
+ - **Comparison**:
117
+ - Both summaries start with descriptions of the origins of the paper clip and Johan Vaaler's contributions.
118
+ - The Facebook summary briefly mentions the evolution of paper clip designs and their availability in various shapes and sizes.
119
+ - The scratch summary includes additional historical details about the use of bent metal wires in the 13th century and Vaaler's patent, providing a richer historical context.
120
 
121
+ ### Implications
 
 
 
122
 
123
+ 1. **Reproducibility**:
124
+ - The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model closely reproduces the performance of the Facebook BART-large-cnn model, capturing key historical points and providing concise summaries. However, it shows some differences in detail prioritization, indicating that while the reproduction is effective, it is not exact.
125
 
126
+ 2. **Model Training from Scratch**:
127
+ - Training from scratch has proven to be effective, with the BART-Large-CNN-scratch model achieving competitive ROUGE scores. However, the summaries differ in detail compared to the Facebook model, suggesting areas for further fine-tuning.
128
 
129
+ 3. **Practical Applications**:
130
+ - Both models are effective for summarizing historical and technical articles. The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model is excellent for concise overviews, while the Facebook model provides more comprehensive context.
131
 
132
+ ### Conclusion
133
 
134
+ The BART-Large-CNN-scratch model demonstrates strong performance, capturing essential historical points and providing concise summaries. While it does not exactly reproduce the Facebook model's summaries, it achieves similar quality and even exceeds in ROUGE scores. This makes it a robust tool for text summarization applications.
