Video-Summarization-Using-Transformer

This project aims to provide a solution for video summarization using Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques. The project utilizes popular libraries such as youtube_dl, transformer, and moviepy to download videos, extract key information, and generate a summarized version of the video.

Requirements

• Python 3.6 or higher
• youtube_dl library
• transformer library
• moviepy library

Installation

1. Clone the project repository:

git clone https://github.com/Pragyan02/Video-Summarization-Using-Transformer.git

2. Install the required libraries using pip:

pip install requirements.txt

Usage

1. Obtain the YouTube video URL.

2. Run the video_summarization.py script:

python video_summarization.py --video_url <url> --output_path <path for output file> --keep_original_file <True or False>

Replace <video_url> with the URL of the YouTube video.

3. The script will download the video and extract the subtitle text. Then, it will perform extractive summarization using the transformer-based model.

4. After the summarization process completes, a summarized version of the video will be generated using moviepy. The output video will be saved in the project directory.
