Carburacy

The Carbon-Aware Accuracy. This metric combines performances and carbon footprint in a unique score to evaluate the environmental impact of your models. We also propose an expansive analysis and comparison of long document summarization models under several settings to evaluate which is the greener setting. All the metric specifics and the LDS comparison findigs are in the original paper Link, published as long articles in AAAI23.

Current generative transformer-based models have achieved state-of-the-art performance in long document summarization. However, this task witnessed a paradigm shift in developing ever-increasingly computationally-hungry models, focusing on effectiveness while ignoring the economic, environmental, and social costs of producing such results. Furthermore, the extensive resources such models require to obtain state-of-the-art scores impact climate change and raise barriers to small and medium organizations characterized by low-resource regimes of hardware and data. This unsustainable trend has lifted many concerns in the community, proposing tools to monitor models' energy cost and carbon footprint. Despite their importance, no evaluation measures considering models' eco-sustainability exist yet. In this paper, we propose Carburacy, the first carbon-aware accuracy measure that captures both model effectiveness and eco-sustainability. We perform an extensive benchmark for long document summarization, comparing multiple state-of-the-art quadratic and linear transformers on several datasets under eco-sustainable regimes. Finally, thanks to Carburacy, we found optimal combinations of hyperparameters that let models be competitive in effectiveness with significantly lower costs. - Paper's Abstract
