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:

It's a very good program. However, I am very sad that Korean is not supported.

I tried using it for this webpage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck And it was just highlighting random stuff that weren't even important.

Very useful, it does slow down my computer a bit though. It should highlight numbers and the meanings of scientifc phrases, please consider adding that.

I had several articles to highlight, I got this add-on thinking it will dave me time from 30 mins to merely seconds... Instead it only highlighted like 1-5 sentences out of like 4 pages!
