Abstract
Systems and methods are provided herein for providing context to users who access video conferences late. This may be accomplished by a system receiving an audio segment of a video conference and generating a subtitle corresponding to the audio segment. The system may determine a summary relating to the audio segment and then display the subtitle, summary, and video conference on a device. The system allows a user, who accesses a video conference late, to quickly and accurately understand the current video conference discussion, improving the user's experience and increasing the productivity of the video conference.

A method comprising:
- generating a first summary associated with a first subject using a first group of subtitles related to a piece of media content;
- generating a second summary associated with a second subject using a second group of subtitles related to the piece of media content;
- storing the first summary and the second summary in a database comprising a plurality of entries, wherein the plurality of entries associates one or more summaries with one or more subjects;
- receiving a first audio segment related to the piece of media content;
- generating a first subtitle using the first audio segment;
- determining that a first entry of the plurality of entries associates at least a portion of the first subtitle with the first subject;
- and
- generating for display, an interface, wherein the interface comprises:
- the first subtitle displayed with a first attribute;
- the first summary displayed with the first attribute;
- the second summary displayed with a second attribute, different than the first attribute, wherein the first subtitle, the first summary, the second summary, and the piece of media content are displayed at the same time.
An apparatus comprising:
- control circuitry;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code for one or more programs, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the control circuitry, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
- generate a first summary associated with a first subject using a first group of subtitles related to a piece of media content;
- generate a second summary associated with a second subject using a second group of subtitles related to the piece of media content;
- store the first summary and the second summary in a database comprising a plurality of entries, wherein the plurality of entries associates one or more summaries with one or more subjects;
- receive a first audio segment related to the piece of media content;
- generate a first subtitle using the first audio segment;
- determine that a first entry of the plurality of entries associates at least a portion of the first subtitle with the first subject;
- and
