Scientific summarization remains a challenging task due to the complex characteristics of internal structure and its external relations to other documents. To address this, our proposed model constructs a heterogeneous graph to represent a document and its relevant external citations. This heterogeneous graph enables the model to exploit information across multiple granularities, ranging from fine-grained textual components to the global document structure, and from internal content to external citation context, which facilitates context-aware representations and effectively reduces redundancy. In addition, we develop an effective encoder based on a multi-granularity graph attention mechanism and the triplet loss objective to enhance representation learning performance. Experimental results across three different scenarios consistently demonstrate that our model outperforms existing approaches.
