An Approach for Audio/Text Summary Generation from Webinars/Online Meetings

Due to the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, most of the public work is carrying out online. Universities all around the globe moved to online education, job interviews are mainly conducting online, many first-level health consultations are happening online, and companies hold periodic meetings entirely online. Google Meet, Microsoft Team, and other online meeting software applications are widely accessible on the market. In this work, we are addressing a topic that has a lot of practical applications. In this paper, we present a method that takes a recorded video as an input and generates a written and/or audio summary of the same as an output. The suggested method can also be used to generate lecture notes from lecture videos, meeting minutes, subtitles, or storyline production from entertainment videos, among several other things. The suggested system takes the video's audio track, which is then transformed to text. In addition, we created the text summary utilising text summarising algorithms. The system's users have the option of using the text summary or creating an audio output that matches the text summary. The proposed method is implemented in Python, and the proposed scheme is evaluated using short videos acquired from YouTube. Since there is no benchmark measure for evaluating the efficiency and there is no specific dataset available for the relevant study, the proposed method is manually validated on the downloaded video set.
