## Overview
MeetingBank, a benchmark dataset created from the city councils of 6 major U.S. cities to supplement existing datasets. It contains 1,366 meetings with over 3,579 hours of video, as well as transcripts, PDF documents of meeting minutes, agenda, and other metadata. On average, a council meeting is 2.6 hours long and its transcript contains over 28k tokens, making it a valuable testbed for meeting summarizers and for extracting structure from meeting videos. The datasets contains 6,892 segment-level summarization instances for training and evaluating of performance.
## Data Structure
```json
{
"id": 0,
"uid": "SeattleCityCouncil_06132016_Res 31669",
"summary": "A RESOLUTION encouraging as a best practice ...",
"transcript": "The report of the Civil Rights, Utilities, Economic ..."
}
```
## Usage
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
meetingbank = load_dataset("huuuyeah/meetingbank")
train_data = meetingbank['train']
test_data = meetingbank['test']
val_data = meetingbank['validation']
def generator(data_split):
for instance in data_split:
yiled instance['id'], instance['summary'], instance['transcript']
```
