Real-Time Keyword Extraction from Conversations

Abstract

We introduce a novel method to extract keywords from meeting speech in real-time. Our approach builds on the graph-of-words representation of text and leverages the k-core decomposition algorithm and properties of submodular functions. We outperform multiple baselines in a real-time scenario emulated from the AMI and ICSI meeting corpora. Evaluation is conducted against both extractive and abstractive gold standard using two standard performance metrics and a newer one based on word embeddings.
