contents The title of a research paper communicates in a succinct style the main theme and, sometimes, the findings of the paper. Coming up with the right title is often an arduous task, and therefore, it would be beneficial to authors if title generation can be automated. In this paper, we fine-tune pre-trained language models to generate titles of papers from their abstracts. Additionally, we use GPT-3.5-turbo in a zero-shot setting to generate paper titles. The performance of the models is measured with ROUGE, METEOR, MoverScore, BERTScore and SciBERTScore metrics. We find that fine-tuned PEGASUS-large outperforms the other models, including fine-tuned LLaMA-3-8B and GPT-3.5-turbo, across most metrics. We also demonstrate that ChatGPT can generate creative titles for papers. Our observations suggest that AI-generated paper titles are generally accurate and appropriate.
