Large Language Models as Zero-Shot Keyphrase Extractors: A Preliminary Empirical Study
Jan 10, 2024
Zero-shot keyphrase extraction aims to build a keyphrase extractor without training by human-annotated data, which is challenging due to the limited human intervention involved. Challenging but worthwhile, zero-shot setting efficiently reduces the time and effort that data labeling takes. Recent efforts on pre-trained large language models (e.g., ChatGPT and ChatGLM) show promising performance on zero-shot settings, thus inspiring us to explore prompt-based methods. In this paper, we ask whether strong keyphrase extraction models can be constructed by directly prompting the large language model ChatGPT. Through experimental results, it is found that ChatGPT still has a lot of room for improvement in the keyphrase extraction task compared to existing state-of-the-art unsupervised and supervised models.
Is ChatGPT A Good Keyphrase Generator? A Preliminary Study
Mar 23, 2023
The emergence of ChatGPT has recently garnered significant attention from the computational linguistics community. To demonstrate its capabilities as a keyphrase generator, we conduct a preliminary evaluation of ChatGPT for the keyphrase generation task. We evaluate its performance in various aspects, including keyphrase generation prompts, keyphrase generation diversity, multi-domain keyphrase generation, and long document understanding. Our evaluation is based on six benchmark datasets, and we adopt the prompt suggested by OpenAI while extending it to six candidate prompts. We find that ChatGPT performs exceptionally well on all six candidate prompts, with minor performance differences observed across the datasets. Based on our findings, we conclude that ChatGPT has great potential for keyphrase generation. Moreover, we discover that ChatGPT still faces challenges when it comes to generating absent keyphrases. Meanwhile, in the final section, we also present some limitations and future expansions of this report.
