How Large Language Models Are Transforming Machine Paraphrase Generation

arXiv HuggingFace Dataset

Quick Start

Install

poetry install

Run

To generate paraphrases using T5, run the following command:

Note: T5 benefits from more few shot examples as it actually performs some gradient steps. However, to make it comparable to GPT-3, we don't recommend exceeding 50 examples.

poetry run python paraphrase.generate --model_name gpt3 --num_prompts 4 --num_examples 32

For generating paraphrases using GPT-3, run the following command:

Warning: Using GPT-3 requires a paid account and can quickly run up a bill if you don't have credits. Reducing the number of prompts and/or the number of samples can help reduce costs.

OPENAI_API_KEY={YOUR_KEY} poetry run python paraphrase.generate --model_name gpt3 --num_prompts 4 --num_examples 32

For help, run the following command:

poetry run python -m paraphrase.generate --help

Dataset

The dataset generated for our study is available on 🤗 Hugging Face Datasets.

Detection

For the detection code, please refer to this repository and paper.

For all models except GPT-3 and T5, we used the trained versions on MPC. For PlagScan, we embedded the text in the same way as in the paper above.

    abstract = "The recent success of large language models for text generation poses a severe threat to academic integrity, as plagiarists can generate realistic paraphrases indistinguishable from original work.However, the role of large autoregressive models in generating machine-paraphrased plagiarism and their detection is still incipient in the literature.This work explores T5 and GPT3 for machine-paraphrase generation on scientific articles from arXiv, student theses, and Wikipedia.We evaluate the detection performance of six automated solutions and one commercial plagiarism detection software and perform a human study with 105 participants regarding their detection performance and the quality of generated examples.Our results suggest that large language models can rewrite text humans have difficulty identifying as machine-paraphrased (53{\%} mean acc.).Human experts rate the quality of paraphrases generated by GPT-3 as high as original texts (clarity 4.0/5, fluency 4.2/5, coherence 3.8/5).The best-performing detection model (GPT-3) achieves 66{\%} F1-score in detecting paraphrases.We make our code, data, and findings publicly available to facilitate the development of detection solutions.",
