A Study on Methods for Summarizing Information from YouTube Channels
Abstract
This study explored the possibility of summarizing information from YouTube channels. To achieve this, the research compared and analyzed speech-to-text (STT) data from top-viewed videos and comment data from recent videos. The keyword network analysis revealed that comment data could represent the main content of the videos, thereby validating the feasibility of information summarization using only comments.
To enhance the reliability of the study, text similarity analysis and statistical verification were conducted. The results of this research are expected to contribute to the utilization of influencer marketing by businesses and to help individual subscribers quickly grasp the main content of channels. Furthermore, it is anticipated that this study will make a practical contribution to the development of efficient processing and analysis methodologies for digital media data.
