A chrome extension that scores YouTube videos. It is a useful metric since dislikes and like-to-dislike ratio were removed from YouTube.**
- How to use
1. Install the extension.
2. Get an YouTube API key from [Google](https://console.developers.google.com/apis/credentials). A free key allows you to score 10 000 videos per day.
3. Insert the API key in the extension popup.
4. Navigate to a YouTube video. The extension will score the video and display the score.
5. Click on the button in the extension popup to see the scores of multiple videos on the thumbnails.
- Technical Details
It works the following way:
1. Gets video statistics using the YouTube API.
2. Clusters video into groups based on video characteristics.
- Clustering is done using [K-means](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-means_clustering).
- Parameters used are combinations and transformations of views, video age, video length, number of comments, number of channel subscribers.
3. Scores the video relative to the other videos in the cluster.
- The score is the percentile of likes-to-view ratio of the video relative to the other videos in the cluster.
- A transformation of the percentile to make the score more intuitive.
How it uses new video data:
- Centroids for clustering and statistics are pre-deployed.
- New video data is used to update the centroids and statistics locally on the browser.
- No data is collected or sent outside the browser.
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
