starmen1265 d039537f1d docs(backlog): add semantic segmentation requirement
Add requirement for improving SRT semantic segmentation:
- Current rule-based approach cannot identify topic transitions
- Document 4 potential solutions with trade-offs
- Recommended approach: two-stage with optional LLM

Semantic Segmentation for SRT Processing

Status: Backlog Priority: Medium Source: User feedback during v1.5 testing

Problem

Current SemanticSegmenter uses simple heuristic rules:

  • Time gap > 3 seconds
  • Paragraph length > 500 characters

This approach cannot identify semantic topic transitions.

Example Case

Video: BV1MiPSz2ErY (科学透镜 - 5 topics in one video)

  1. 银河系中心的超大黑洞人马座A*其实不是黑洞
  2. 银河系和仙女座星系等构成的本星系群陷入巨大物质薄片
  3. 科学家为世界上97%的建筑生成3D模型
  4. 雷暴的形成
  5. 闪电的形成

Current segmentation mixes these topics together.

Potential Solutions

Option 1: Transition Keyword Detection (Simple)

  • Detect common transition phrases: "接下来", "另外", "第二个", etc.
  • Pros: Fast, no API calls
  • Cons: Low accuracy, many videos lack explicit transitions

Option 2: LLM-Based Segmentation (Accurate)

  • Ask LLM to analyze entire subtitle and identify topic boundaries
  • Pros: Highest accuracy, understands semantics
  • Cons: Extra API cost, token limits for long videos

Option 3: Two-Stage Approach (Balanced)

  • Stage 1: Simple rule-based segmentation (current)
  • Stage 2: LLM checks paragraph beginnings for new topics
  • Pros: Most cases use simple rules, LLM only for key decisions
  • Cons: More complex implementation

Option 4: Embedding-Based Similarity

  • Calculate semantic similarity between adjacent paragraphs
  • Low similarity = topic boundary
  • Pros: No LLM API calls, runs locally
  • Cons: Requires embedding model, implementation complexity

Recommendation

Phase 1 (Quick Win): Transition keyword detection + improve prompt

Phase 2 (Full Solution): Two-stage approach with optional LLM semantic segmentation

Success Criteria

  1. Topics are separated correctly
  2. Each paragraph covers a single coherent topic
  3. No false splits within a topic
