Automatically determining and presenting personalized action items from an event

Computerized systems are provided for automatically determining action items of an event, such as a meeting. The determined action items may be personalized to a particular user, such as a meeting attendee, and may include contextual information enabling the user to understand the action item. In particular, a personalized action item may be determined based in part from determining and utilizing particular factors in combination with an event dialog, such as an event speaker's language style; user role in an organization; historical patterns in communication; event purpose, name, or location; event participants, or other contextual information. Particular statements are evaluated to determine whether the statement likely is or is not an action item. Contextual information may be determined for action items, which then may be provided to the particular user during or following the event.
