Abstract:
Text Generation is a pressing topic of Natural Language Processing that involves the prediction of upcoming text. Applications like auto-complete, chatbots, auto-correct, and many others use text generation to meet certain communicative requirements. However more accurate text generation methods are needed to encapsulate all possibilities of natural language communication. In this survey, we present cutting-edge methods being adopted for text generation. These methods are divided into three broad categories i.e. 1) Sequence-to-Sequence models (Seq2Seq), 2) Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN), and 3) Miscellaneous. Sequence-to-Sequence involves supervised methods, while GANs are unsupervised, aimed at reducing the dependence of models on training data. After this, we also list a few other text generation methods. We also summarize some evaluation metrics available for text generation and their Performance
