Reconstruct Before Summarize: An Efficient Two-Step Framework for Condensing and Summarizing Meeting Transcripts (2023.emnlp-main)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to meeting summarization are limited due to noise, lengthy transcripts, and scattered salient information. |
| Approach: | They propose a two-step framework for meeting summarization that leverages a self-supervised paradigm to reconstruct transcripts and a relative positional bucketing algorithm to equip models to generate the summary. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method significantly reduces memory consumption and processing time on two meeting summarization datasets. |
VCSUM: A Versatile Chinese Meeting Summarization Dataset (2023.findings-acl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Compared to news and chat summarization, meeting summarizing is decelerated by the limited data. |
| Approach: | They propose a Chinese meeting summarization dataset that provides annotations for each transcript and a set of benchmark models to facilitate further research. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model can be used to summarize the content of meeting transcripts in Chinese. |
