Abstract:
Speech summarization techniques take human speech as input and then output an abridged version as text or speech. Speech summarization has applications in many domains from information technology to health care, for example improving speech archives or reducing clinical documentation burden. Most studies employ one of four speech summarization architectures: (1) Sentence extraction and compaction; (2) Feature extraction and classification or rank-based sentence selection; (3) Sentence compression and compression summarization; and (4) Language modelling. We also discuss the strengths and weaknesses of these different methods and speech features. As supervised methods require manually annotated training data which can be costly, there was more interest in unsupervised methods.
