| "text": "The Key Point Analysis (KPA) shared task by Friedman et al. (2021) 1 invited systems for two complementary subtasks: matching arguments to key points and generating key points from a given set of arguments (Section 3). As part of this shared task, we present an approach with two complementary components, one for each subtask. For key point matching, we propose a model that learns a semantic embedding space where instances that match are closer to each other while non-matching instances are further away from each other. We learn to embed instances by utilizing a contrastive loss function in a siamese neural network (Bromley et al., 1994) . For the key point generation, we present a graph-based extractive summarization approach similar to the work of Alshomary et al. (2020a) . It utilizes a PageRank variant to rank sentences in the input arguments by quality and predicts the top-ranked sentences to be key points. In an additional experiment, we also investigated an approach that performs aspect identification on arguments, followed by aspect clustering to ensure diversity. Finally, arguments with the best coverage of these diverse aspects are extracted as key points.", | |

Wang and Ling (2016) used a sequence-to-sequence model for the abstractive summarization of arguments from online debate portals. A complementary task of generating conclusions as informative argument summaries was introduced by Syed et al. (2021) . Similar to Alshomary et al. (2020b) who inferred a conclusion's target with a triplet neural network, we rely on contrastive learning here, using a siamese network though. Also, we build upon ideas of Alshomary et al. (2020a) who proposed a graph-based model using PageRank (Page et al., 1999) that extracts the argument's conclusion and the main supporting reason as an extractive summary.

(2016) grouped verb frames into pattern clusters that serve as input to a structured summarization pipeline, whereas Misra et al. (2016) proposed a more condensed approach by directly extracting argumentative sentences, summarized by similarity clustering. Bar-Haim et al. (2020a) continued this line of research by introducing the notion of key points and contributing the ArgsKP corpus, a collection of arguments mapped to manually-created key points. These key points are concise and selfcontained sentences that capture the gist of the arguments. Later, Bar-Haim et al. (2020b) proposed a quantitative argument summarization framework that automatically extracts key points from a set of arguments. Building upon this research, our approach aims to increase the quality of such generated key points, including a strong relation identifier between arguments and key points.", | |

We used Sentence-BERT (Reimers and Gurevych, 2019) to train our model for 10 epochs, with batch size 32, and maximum input length of 70, leaving all other parameters to their defaults. For automatic evaluation, we computed both strict and relaxed mean Average Precision (mAP) following Friedman et al. (2021) . In cases where there is no majority label for matching, the relaxed mAP considers them to be a match while the strict mAP considers them as not matching. In the development phase, we trained our model on the training split and evaluated on the validation split provided by the organizers. The strict and relaxed mAP on the validation set were 0.84 and 0.96 respectively. For the final submission, we did a five-fold cross validation on the combined data (training and validation splits) creating an ensemble for the matching (as per the mean score).", | |
