• Abstract: Recent advances in deep learning, and especially the invention of encoder-decoder architectures, has significantly improved the performance of abstractive summarization systems. The majority of research has focused on written documents, however, neglecting the problem of multi-party dialogue summarization. In this paper, we present a dataset of French political debates for the purpose of enhancing resources for multi-lingual dialogue summarization. Our dataset consists of manually transcribed and annotated political debates, covering a range of topics and perspectives. We highlight the importance of high quality transcription and annotations for training accurate and effective dialogue summarization models, and emphasize the need for multilingual resources to support dialogue summarization in non-English languages. We also provide baseline experiments using state-of-the-art methods, and encourage further research in this area to advance the field of dialogue summarization. Our dataset will be made publicly available for use by the research community.

  This article summarizes the research on Transformer-based abstractive summarization for English dialogues. We cover the main challenges present in dialog summarization (i.e., language, structure, comprehension, speaker, salience, and factuality) We find that while some challenges, like language, have seen considerable progress, others, such as comprehension, factuality, and salience, remain difficult and hold significant research opportunities.

• SPECTRUM: Speaker-Enhanced Pre-Training for Long Dialogue Summarization [48.284512017469524]
  Multi-turn dialogues are characterized by their extended length and the presence of turn-taking conversations. Traditional language models often overlook the distinct features of these dialogues by treating them as regular text. We propose a speaker-enhanced pre-training method for long dialogue summarization.

We use a dialogue segmentation algorithm to split a dialogue passage into topic-concentrated fragments in an unsupervised way. We also present a novel model, Topic-Aware Dual-Attention Matching (TADAM) Network, which takes topic segments as processing elements.

  In a customer service system, dialogue summarization can boost service efficiency by creating summaries for long spoken dialogues. In this work, we focus on topic-oriented dialogue summarization, which generates highly abstractive summaries. We propose a novel topic-augmented two-stage dialogue summarizer ( TDS) jointly with a saliency-aware neural topic model (SATM) for topic-oriented summarization of customer service dialogues.
