  • Patent number: 11727935
    Abstract: There is a need for more effective and efficient predictive natural language summarization. This need can be addressed by, for example, solutions for performing predictive natural language summarization using a constrained optimization model. In one example, a method includes identifying one or more per-party utterance subsets in a multi-party call transcript; generating a plurality of eligible extractive summaries that comply with one or more optimization constraints; for each eligible extractive summary of the plurality of eligible extractive summaries, determining an overall summary utility measure; generating the optimal extractive summary based at least in part on each overall summary utility measure for an eligible extractive summary of the plurality of eligible extractive summaries; and performing one or more summary-based actions based at least in part on the optimal extractive summary.

  • Publication number: 20230054726
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide methods, apparatus, systems, computing entities, and/or the like, for providing a summarization of a conversation, such as a telephonic conversation. In an embodiment, a method is provided. The method comprises receiving an input data object comprising textual data of a conversation, the textual data comprising sentence-level tokens. The method further comprises classifying some sentence-level tokens as interrogative sentence-level tokens, and identifying subtopic portions of the textual data, each interrogative sentence-level token located within one subtopic portion. The method further comprises determining whether an interrogative sentence-level token is substantially similar to one of a plurality of target queries, and for such interrogative sentence-level tokens, selecting sentence-level tokens from a subtopic portion corresponding to the such interrogative sentence-level tokens.
