Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension automatically highlights the important content on article pages.

It addresses *tl;dr* in a similar way to an article summarizer.

To use, click the highlighter icon in the location bar. Clicking multiple times changes the highlighting coverage. As the page receives more highlighting from clicking the icon, the icon will show less available ink in the highlighter.

Please let me know if you find particular pages where the extension does not work well. *Auto Highlight* currently uses an algorithm for picking important sentences based on term frequencies in the entire article. With examples of problematic pages, I can possibly improve the technology. I would also like to incorporate more advanced techniques from extraction-based article summarization research.

The source code is available on GitHub:

Çok başarılı ve faydalı bir araç. Mutlaka kullanmak gerekir. Bir matematiksel işleme göre cümleye boyayarak dikkat çekiyor. Böylece metnin tamamını okumak zorunda kalmayıp dikkatinizi uyaran bazı birkaç cümleyle konuya vakıf olabiliyorsunuz. Bir metnin ana fikri veya önemli kısmı sizin aradığınız konuya göre değiştiği için bu programdan aklınızdan geçen aradığınızı işaretlemesini beklemeyin. Yapanı tebrik ederim çok zekice. Birçok aptalca ve cehilce yorumlar yazılmış; onların etkisinde kalmamanız için bu yorumumu yazıyorum.

I've been reading a lot of the comments and I decided to download it, when it tried it out, it did highlight some words, but it only highlighted the title of an article. Is it a bug, or is it just my problem? Thanks, in advance, Joanna
