title: R-BASS : Relevance-aided Block-wise Adaptation for Speech Summarization
abstract: End-to-end speech summarization on long recordings is challenging because of the high computational cost.Block-wise Adaptation for Speech Summarization (BASS) summarizes arbitrarily long sequences by sequentially processing abutting chunks of audio.Despite the benefits of BASS, it has higher compute time due to sequential processing of all blocks, regardless of whether they are relevant to the final summary.In this paper, we propose R-BASS, a new relevance-aware block-wise adaptation method.Firs
