ExplainToMe

@rrhoover this is an interesting idea. So the next thing that I'm currently building on top of this is a Facebook bot. You can send it links and it'll parse and send you the summary. Chrome extension would probably be easier to build though

@rrhoover Absolute +1 to the Chrome extension. I went through the site expecting to find one. Gimme gimme! :D

@jjangsangy @rrhoover this would be cool, the latency of the heroku free plan may make it a bit slow, though. @jjangsangy Btw, I can build that, if you want. Any chance to allow cors requests and return response as json or something?

@oelmekki @rrhoover sure! I can modify the source code to return a json in response to something like POST {"url": "http://summarize-me.com"} to the url endpoint 'http://site-url/api/v1.0/summary'

@jjangsangy Cool, let's do that! I'll have a look tomorrow, after contract time :)

@parkhmp7 just made one. `https://explaintome.herokuapp.co...` with a JSON containing the `url` field

@jjangsangy I'm getting a 404 error :(

@parkhmp7 what page did the 404 occur for?

@jjangsangy For this link (https://explaintome.herokuapp.co...)

@mynhpark smmry has a decent API

@oelmekki thanks for your enthusiasm. TextRank is actually a much simpler than neural networks. It creates a simple language graph of documents and calculates the centroid. Each word in a way is recommends other words in a similar way to PageRank recommending web pages. Here is the original paper written about TextRank, it's very readable. http://web.eecs.umich.edu/%7Emih...

@jjangsangy Thanks :) Skimming through it, I see it uses quite similar method than 5-gram neural networks are using to generate word embeddings. The reconstruction/extraction process looks super cool, though. Will have a deeper look, thanks!
