TLDR: Extreme Summarization of Scientific Documents
Open accessAbstract
We introduce TLDR generation, a new form of extreme summarization, for scientific papers.TLDR generation involves high source compression and requires expert background knowledge and understanding of complex domain-specific language.To facilitate study on this task, we introduce SCITLDR, a new multi-target dataset of 5.4K TLDRs over 3.2K papers.SCITLDR contains both author-written and expert-derived TLDRs, where the latter are collected using a novel annotation protocol that produces high-quality summaries while minimizing annotation burden.We propose CATTS, a simple yet effective learning strategy for generating TLDRs that exploits titles as an auxiliary training signal.CATTS improves upon strong baselines under both automated metrics and human evaluations.Data and code are publicly available at https://github.com/allenai/scitldr. Dataset constructionOverview We introduce SCITLDR, a new multitarget dataset of 5,411 TLDRs over 3,229 scientific papers in the computer science domain.3 The training set contains 1,992 papers, each with a single gold TLDR.The dev and test sets contain 619 and 618 papers each, with 1,452 and 1,967 TLDRs, respectively.This is unlike the majority of existing 3 See Appendix Table 9 for full venue breakdown.

TL;DR
The paper introduces TLDR generation for scientific papers and releases SciTLDR, a multi-target dataset of 5,411 TLDRs over 3,229 computer science papers. It proposes CATTS, which uses paper titles as an auxiliary training signal, and reports improvements over strong extractive and abstractive baselines on automated and human evaluations.
Key findings
- SciTLDR contains 5,411 TLDRs over 3,229 papers: 1,992 training papers with one gold TLDR each, 619 dev papers with 1,452 TLDRs, and 618 test papers with 1,967 TLDRs. Its summaries average 21 words, with a compression ratio of 238.1 and 15.2% novel words.
- Author-written TLDRs average 18.9 words and peer-review-derived TLDRs average 22.9 words; lexical overlap is very low (1-, 2-, and 3-gram mean Jaccard indices of 15.0%, 2.5%, and 0.7%). TLDR-PR is more abstractive, with 20.2% novel words versus 9.6% for TLDR-Auth.
- CATTS improves over BART baselines: in abstract-only input, CATTS gains +0.5 Rouge-1 and CATTS_XSUM gains +1.8 Rouge-1; in AIC input, CATTS gains +2.0 Rouge-1 and CATTS_XSUM gains +0.9 Rouge-1. In AIC, CATTS reaches 44.9 Rouge-1, 22.6 Rouge-2, and 37.3 Rouge-L versus BART’s 42.9/20.8/35.1.
- Human evaluation found CATTS_XSUM more informative than BART_XSUM (MRR 0.54 vs 0.42), comparable to gold TLDR-Auth (0.53) but below TLDR-PR (0.60). Correctness did not differ: both models averaged 2.5, with 42 ties, 10 cases favoring BART_XSUM, and 12 favoring CATTS_XSUM.
Methods
- Dataset construction combined author-written TLDRs collected from OpenReview with expert-derived TLDR-PR summaries created by rewriting the first 128 words of peer review comments. Twenty-eight University of Washington undergraduate computer science students were recruited, 20 continued after initial training, and annotators were paid $20/hour; full texts were parsed with S2ORC.
- Baselines included extractive PACSUM, BERTSUMEXT, and MatchSum, plus abstractive BART-large and BART-large finetuned on XSUM. CATTS appends control codes for TLDR and title generation, trains with an additional 20K arXiv paper-title pairs, and upsamples TLDR instances; experiments use abstract-only and abstract/introduction/conclusion (AIC) input spaces.
- Evaluation uses max Rouge over multiple gold TLDRs per paper, plus human evaluation: nugget-based informativeness on 76 sampled gold papers and author-rated correctness from 29 unique authors covering 64 arXiv papers.
Limitations
- Stated in the paper: experiments are limited to abstract-only and AIC input spaces, though full texts are provided for future work; the idea of a TLDR may differ across academic disciplines and is left for future work; a small fraction (<5%) of papers lacked available PDFs and were included using abstract-only text.
- Evident from the text: the dataset is restricted to computer science papers, and the human correctness evaluation is small (29 authors, 64 papers) and found no difference between BART_XSUM and CATTS_XSUM.
- Evident from the text: informativeness analysis uses only 76 sampled gold papers, and automated evaluation relies on max Rouge over multiple gold TLDRs, which rewards matching any gold summary and may not fully capture factual correctness.

“As evidenced by earlier work in summarization evaluation (Cohan and Goharian, 2016), variability in human-written summaries (Zechner, 1996; Harman and Over, 2004) can negatively impact the reliability of automated summarization metrics like Rouge (Lin, 2004).”

“Similar to multitask learning, training on heterogenous data annotated with control codes has been shown to improve controlled generation in autoregressive language models (Keskar et al., 2019; ElSahar et al., 2020; Sudhakar et al., 2019; Li et al., 2020).”

The Introduction (p. 1) describes training CTRL on varied text sources with control codes derived from their associated structure.

Section 4 (p. 4) says the authors enrich reviews with category-derived control codes during training. Section 7 (pp. 8–9) reports that removing the codes degrades summary quality and that generated summaries tend to follow appropriate codes.

“…encoder – decoder framework, the CKPG uses the keyphrase function as a control code, whose effectiveness for the autoregressive language models has been shown in (Cachola et al., 2020; Elsahar et al., 2020; Keskar et al., 2019), and then automatically generates keyphrases of the specified category.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-21, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-21 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
