Beyond Transcripts: A Renewed Perspective on Audio Chaptering (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | despite its relevance, research on audio chaptering remains limited and predominantly textbased . authors: audio chapterers can't be used linearly because they skim, scrub timelines, jump to relevant moments . acoustic features and learning representations are not used for audio chapterer evaluation . |
| Approach: | They propose to use audio-only architecture to automatically segment audio into coherent sections . they compare audio-based models with acoustic features and a novel audio-oriented architecture . |
| Outcome: | The proposed audio-only architecture outperforms text-based approaches on acoustic features and LLMs. |
