Segmenting meeting transcripts using boundary classification.
Council meetings are highly structured and when moving from one discussion item to another, their is usually a very clear identifiable boundary between the two.
Because these are identifiable, we can hopefully train a text classification or span categorization model to identify them for us.
- Annotate small portion of data to start
- Eva is working on Seattle events
- Sung is working on Denver events
- Sarah is working on Portland events
- Rajat is working on King County events
- Shak is working on Boston events
- {Place your name and what municipality you are working on here}
- Train model to get early idea of how much annotated data is needed
- Annotate more data as needed
- Train "final" model
- Implement the model into the cdp-backend event pipeline
- Use the outputs of the model on the cdp-frontend web app
Installing dependencies: just install
It is generally recommended to make a new environment just for prodigy so that it is isolated from all other work and you don't need to reinstall it.
If you are creating on a new dataset to annotate, make a new code cell in the construct-dataset.ipynb Notebook and copy what you need from the existing cells.
The Justfile has the command for starting annotation for the Seattle annotation set, feel free to add a new command for your own annotation set.
