Automatically generating a meeting summary for an information handling system
A method and apparatus for automatically generating a meeting summary is disclosed herein. Meeting audio is recorded and converted into a text-based transcript. Handwritten meeting notes are converted into notes text. The transcript and notes text are correlated to provide correlated meeting text. Meeting topics are determined from the correlated meeting text. A meeting summary is generated from the meeting topics.
1. A method, comprising:
receiving, by an information handling system, a meeting record comprising a record of words spoken during a meeting and meeting timestamps comprising times when the words were spoken;
receiving, by the information handling system, meeting notes comprising notes written by one or more meeting participants and notes timestamps comprising times when the meeting notes were written;
correlating, by the information handling system, the meeting notes to the meeting record to generate correlated meeting text, wherein the correlating step comprises matching the notes timestamps to the meeting timestamps and wherein the correlated meeting text comprises the meeting record and the meeting notes;
determining, by the information handling system, topics from the correlated meeting text;
determining, by the information handling system, a number of words in the meeting notes corresponding to each of the topics;
determining, by the information handling system, an importance score associated with each topic based, at least in part, on the correlated meeting text and the number of words in the meeting notes corresponding to the topic; and
generating, by the information handling system, a meeting summary comprising the topics and associated importance scores.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, by the information handling system, converting the meeting record from audio data into text data after receiving the meeting record and wherein the correlated meeting text comprises the text data.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, by the information handling system, converting the meeting notes from handwritten symbols into text data after receiving the meeting notes and wherein the correlated meeting text comprises the text data.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein generating the meeting summary comprises generating a word heat map.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein generating the meeting summary comprises generating a prioritized meeting topic list.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining an importance score step comprises determining a number of meeting participants that took meeting notes corresponding to the topic.
7. An apparatus, comprising: a processor and memory coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is configured for performing steps comprising:
receiving a meeting record comprising a record of words spoken during a meeting and meeting timestamps comprising times when the words were spoken;
receiving meeting notes comprising notes written by one or more meeting participants and notes timestamps comprising times when the meeting notes were written;
correlating the meeting notes to the meeting record to generate correlated meeting text, wherein the correlating step comprises matching the notes timestamps to the meeting timestamps and wherein the correlated meeting text comprises the meeting record and the meeting notes;
determining topics from the correlated meeting text;
determining a number of words in the meeting notes corresponding to each of the topics;
determining an importance score associated with each topic based, at least in part, on the correlated meeting text and the number of words in the meeting notes corresponding to the topic; and
generating a meeting summary comprising the topics and associated importance scores.
8. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to perform steps comprising converting the meeting record from audio data into text data after receiving the meeting record and wherein the correlated meeting text comprises the text data.
9. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to perform steps comprising converting the meeting notes from handwritten symbols into text data after receiving the meeting notes and wherein the correlated meeting text comprises the text data.
10. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein generating the meeting summary comprises generating a word heat map.
11. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein generating the meeting summary comprises generating a prioritized meeting topic list.
12. The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the determining an importance score comprises determining a number of meeting participants that took meeting notes corresponding to the topic.
13. An information handling system, comprising: a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the processor is configured to execute:
an audio processing service for converting meeting audio into a meeting transcript;
an optical character recognition service for converting handwritten notes into notes text;
a natural language processing service for converting the meeting transcript into meeting topics, the natural language processing service converts the notes text into notes topics and for converting the meeting transcript into meeting topics, and for converting the notes text into notes topics; and
a machine learning service for correlating the meeting topics with the notes topics to create correlated topics by matching meeting timestamps to notes timestamps and for generating a meeting summary by summarizing the correlated topics, wherein the machine learning service is configured to determine an importance score of a correlated topic by determining a number of words in the meeting notes corresponding to the correlated topic, wherein the meeting summary includes the importance score for each correlated topic.
14. The information handling system of claim 13 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute a dashboard, wherein meeting participants view the meeting summary by accessing the dashboard.
15. The information handling system of claim 13 , wherein the meeting summary comprises a word heat map.
16. The information handling system of claim 13 , wherein the meeting summary comprises a prioritized meeting topic list.
17. The information handling system of claim 13 , wherein the machine learning service is further configured to determine the importance score of a topic by determining a number of meeting participants that took meeting notes corresponding to the topic.
