MISP-Meeting: A Real-World Dataset with Multimodal Cues for Long-form Meeting Transcription and Summarization

We introduce MISP-Meeting, a new real-world, multimodal dataset that covers subject-oriented long-form content. MISP-Meeting integrates information from speech, vision, and text modalities to facilitate automatic meeting transcription and summarization (AMTS). Challenging conditions in human meetings, including far-field speech recognition, audio-visual understanding, and long-term summarization, have been carefully evaluated. We benchmark state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) and large language models (LLMs) on this dataset, enhanced with multimodal cues. Experiments demonstrate that incorporating multimodal cues, such as lip movements and visual focus of attention, significantly enhances transcription accuracy, reducing the character error rate (CER) from 36.60% to 20.27% via guided source separation (GSS), fine-tuning, and audio-visual fusion. Furthermore, our summarization analysis reveals a direct correlation between ASR quality and summary coherence, underscoring the importance of robust multimodal modeling. Our dataset and codebase have been released as open source. 1
