abstract = "Presentations are critical for communication in all areas of our lives, yet the creation of slide decks is often tedious and time-consuming. There has been limited research aiming to automate the document-to-slides generation process and all face a critical challenge: no publicly available dataset for training and benchmarking. In this work, we first contribute a new dataset, SciDuet, consisting of pairs of papers and their corresponding slides decks from recent years{'} NLP and ML conferences (e.g., ACL). Secondly, we present D2S, a novel system that tackles the document-to-slides task with a two-step approach: 1) Use slide titles to retrieve relevant and engaging text, figures, and tables; 2) Summarize the retrieved context into bullet points with long-form question answering. Our evaluation suggests that long-form QA outperforms state-of-the-art summarization baselines on both automated ROUGE metrics and qualitative human evaluation.",

Structure
How were the labels chosen?
The original papers and slides (both are in PDF format) are carefully processed by a combination of PDF/Image processing tookits. The text contents from multiple slides that correspond to the same slide title are mreged.
Describe and name the splits in the dataset if there are more than one.
Training, validation and testing data contain 136, 55, and 81 papers from ACL Anthology and their corresponding slides, respectively.
Describe any criteria for splitting the data, if used. If there are differences between the splits (e.g., if the training annotations are machine-generated and the dev and test ones are created by humans, or if different numbers of annotators contributed to each example), describe them here.
The dataset integrated into GEM is the ACL portion of the whole dataset described in "https://aclanthology.org/2021.naacl-main.111.pdf", It contains the full Dev and Test sets, and a portion of the Train dataset. Note that although we cannot release the whole training dataset due to copyright issues, researchers can still use our released data procurement code to generate the training dataset from the online ICML/NeurIPS anthologies.
Dataset in GEM
Rationale
What does this dataset contribute toward better generation evaluation and why is it part of GEM?
SciDuet is the first publicaly available dataset for the challenging task of document2slides generation, which requires a model has a good ability to "understand" long-form text, choose appropriate content and generate key points.
Do other datasets for the high level task exist?
no
What aspect of model ability can be measured with this dataset?
content selection, long-form text undersanding and generation
GEM Additional Curation
Has the GEM version of the dataset been modified in any way (data, processing, splits) from the original curated data?
no
Does GEM provide additional splits to the dataset?
no

What aspect of model ability can be measured with this dataset?
content selection, long-form text undersanding and key points generation
What metrics are typically used for this task?
ROUGE
List and describe the purpose of the metrics and evaluation methodology (including human evaluation) that the dataset creators used when introducing this task.
Automatical Evaluation Metric: ROUGE Human Evaluation: (Readability, Informativeness, Consistency)
- Readability: The generated slide content is coherent, concise, and grammatically correct;
- Informativeness: The generated slide provides sufficient and necessary information that corresponds to the given slide title, regardless of its similarity to the original slide;
- Consistency: The generated slide content is similar to the original author’s reference slide.
Are previous results available?
yes
What evaluation approaches have others used?
ROUGE + Human Evaluation
What are the most relevant previous results for this task/dataset?
Paper "D2S: Document-to-Slide Generation Via Query-Based Text Summarization" reports 20.47, 5.26 and 19.08 for ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2 and ROUGE-L (f-score).
Dataset Curation
Original Curation
Original curation rationale
Provide a benchmark dataset for the document-to-slides task.
Is the dataset aggregated from different data sources?
no
Language Data
How was the language data obtained?
Other
Was the text validated by a different worker or a data curator?
not validated
How was the text data pre-processed? (Enter N/A if the text was not pre-processed)
Text on papers was extracted through Grobid. Figures andcaptions were extracted through pdffigures. Text on slides was extracted through IBM Watson Discovery package and OCR by pytesseract. Figures and tables that appear on slides and papers were linked through multiscale template matching by OpenCV. Further dataset cleaning was performed with standard string-based heuristics on sentence building, equation and floating caption removal, and duplicate line deletion.
Were text instances selected or filtered?
algorithmically
What were the selection criteria?
the slide context text shouldn't contain additional format information such as "*** University"
Structured Annotations
Does the dataset have additional annotations for each instance?
none
Was an annotation service used?
no
Consent
Was there a consent policy involved when gathering the data?
yes
What was the consent policy?
The original dataset was open-sourced under Apache-2.0.
Some of the original dataset creators are part of the GEM v2 dataset infrastructure team and take care of integrating this dataset into GEM.
Private Identifying Information (PII)
Does the source language data likely contain Personal Identifying Information about the data creators or subjects?
yes/very likely
What categories of PII are present or suspected in the data?
generic PII
Did the curators use any automatic/manual method to identify PII in the dataset?
no identification
Maintenance
Does the original dataset have a maintenance plan?
no
Broader Social Context
Previous Work on the Social Impact of the Dataset
Are you aware of cases where models trained on the task featured in this dataset ore related tasks have been used in automated systems?
no
Impact on Under-Served Communities
Does this dataset address the needs of communities that are traditionally underserved in language technology, and particularly language generation technology? Communities may be underserved for exemple because their language, language variety, or social or geographical context is underepresented in NLP and NLG resources (datasets and models).
no
Discussion of Biases
Are there documented social biases in the dataset? Biases in this context are variations in the ways members of different social categories are represented that can have harmful downstream consequences for members of the more disadvantaged group.
unsure
