• Abstract: In today's fast-paced world, effective presentations have become an essential tool for communication in both online and offline meetings. The crafting of a compelling presentation requires significant time and effort, from gathering key insights to designing slides that convey information clearly and concisely. However, despite the wealth of resources available, people often find themselves manually extracting crucial points, analyzing data, and organizing content in a way that ensures clarity and impact. Furthermore, a successful presentation goes beyond just the slides; it demands rehearsal and the ability to weave a captivating narrative to fully engage the audience. Although there has been some exploration of automating document-to-slide generation, existing research is largely centered on converting research papers. In addition, automation of the delivery of these presentations has yet to be addressed. We introduce PASS, a pipeline used to generate slides from general Word documents, going beyond just research papers, which also automates the oral delivery of the generated slides. PASS analyzes user documents to create a dynamic, engaging presentation with an AI-generated voice. Additionally, we developed an LLM-based evaluation metric to assess our pipeline across three critical dimensions of presentations: relevance, coherence, and redundancy. The data and codes are available at https://github.com/AggarwalTushar/PASS.

• PPTAgent: Generating and Evaluating Presentations Beyond Text-to-Slides [51.88536367177796]
  We propose a two-stage, edit-based approach inspired by human drafts for automatically generating presentations. PWTAgent first analyzes references to extract slide-level functional types and content schemas, then generates editing actions based on selected reference slides. PWTAgent significantly outperforms existing automatic presentation generation methods across all three dimensions.

• Enhancing Presentation Slide Generation by LLMs with a Multi-Staged End-to-End Approach [21.8104104944488]
  Existing approaches for generating a rich presentation from a document are often semi-automatic or only put a flat summary into the slides ignoring the importance of a good narrative. We propose a multi-staged end-to-end model which uses a combination of LLM and VLM. We have experimentally shown that compared to applying LLMs directly with state-of-the-art prompting, our proposed multi-staged solution is better in terms of automated metrics and human evaluation.

  It is difficult to incorporate such non-linear mapping of content to slides and ensure that the content is faithful to the document. We propose a novel graph based solution where we learn a graph from the input document and use a combination of graph neural network and LLM to generate a presentation.

  Emphasizing strong leading words in presentation slides can allow the audience to direct the eye to certain focal points instead of reading the entire slide. Motivated by this demand, we study the problem of Emphasis Selection (ES) in presentation slides. We introduce a new dataset containing presentation slides with a wide variety of topics, each is annotated with emphasis words in a crowdsourced setting.
