Code Details

The main branch contains code to generate macro plans from input verbalization. The code for training summary generation is in summary_gen branch for MLB and summary_gen_roto for RotoWire dataset.

The test outputs and trained models can be downloaded from the google drive link https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jJjq5IvuBKNLTAe7fuwlDYParrxpK-WD?usp=sharing

The steps for training and inference for RotoWire dataset are given in README_RotoWire, and for MLB dataset are given in README_MLB.
