چکیده

Summarization of multi-party conversation is one of the important tasks in natural language processing. In this paper, we explain a Japanese corpus and a topic segmentation task. To the best of our knowledge, the corpus is the first Japanese corpus annotated for summarization tasks and freely available to anyone. We call it “the Kyutech corpus.” The task of the corpus is a decision-making task with four participants and it contains utterances with time information, topic segmentation and reference summaries. As a case study for the corpus, we describe a method combined with LCSeg and TopicTiling for a topic segmentation task. We discuss the effectiveness and the problems of the combined method through the experiment with the Kyutech corpus.

A Modified Character Segmentation Algorithm for Farsi Printed Text Using Upper Contour Labelling

In this paper, a modified segmentation algorithm for printed Farsi words is presented. This algorithm is based on a previous work by Azmi that uses the conditional labeling of the upper contour to find the segmentation points. The main objective is to improve the segmentation results for low quality prints. To achieve this, various modifications on local baseline detection, contour labeling an...

Topic-Based Structuring of a Very Large-Scale News Video Corpus

We introduce a topic-based inter-video structuring method that considers application to a very large-scale news video corpus as well as user interfaces that provide the users with the ability to efficiently browse through the corpus based on the topic structure. Although the proposed method is a multimedia-integrated method that refers to both text and image based information, this paper focuse...

Using Collocations for Topic Segmentation and Link Detection

We present in this paper a method for achieving in an integrated way two tasks of topic analysis: segmentation and link detection. This method combines word repetition and the lexical cohesion stated by a collocation network to compensate for the respective weaknesses of the two approaches. We report an evaluation of our method for segmentation on two corpora, one in French and one in English, ...
