Improving Query-Focused Meeting Summarization with Query-Relevant Knowledge
Query-Focused Meeting Summarization (QFMS) aims to generate a summary of a
given meeting transcript conditioned upon a query. The main challenges for QFMS
are the long input text length and sparse query-relevant information in the
meeting transcript. In this paper, we propose a knowledge-enhanced two-stage
framework called Knowledge-Aware Summarizer (KAS) to tackle the challenges. In
the first stage, we introduce knowledge-aware scores to improve the
query-relevant segment extraction. In the second stage, we incorporate
query-relevant knowledge in the summary generation. Experimental results on the
QMSum dataset show that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance.
Further analysis proves the competency of our methods in generating relevant
and faithful summaries.Comment: AACL 2023 Finding
