Bingle allows users to quickly access relevant information about some word(s) on a webpage without having to open another browser tab to search for the query. This is done by highlighting the candidate word(s) to search for, right-clicking on the highlighted word(s), and then selecting 'Search on Bingle'.
The highlighted words act as a query that will be fed into a BM25 retrieval algorithm. After the retrieval completes, Bingle will select from these results the 3 most relevant Wikipedia articles and their corresponding summaries and display them to the user in a mini-card located at the top right corner of the page.
This project was developed jointly by Gene Horecka, Mony Chhen, Shubha Sundar, and Sushma Ponna for the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign's CS410 Course: Text Information Systems (Fall 2021).
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!
