Would it be possible?
Would it be possible to make an advanced note taking application. It takes the input of the text in the book then searches through all the text for important words/headers then uses an outline format to create notes on the section. Then once it creates the skeleton it goes through again and finds the important words that aren't like: "in at this but do it is" stuff like that then filters out words like: "show project" Then just using the bigger more meaty words develops actual contextual notes. Possible? If it is I'm going to make that my high school project to write and sell a program that takes notes. I wonder this because I'm taking 20 pages of notes now and it's really fucking dumb.
not impossible. But will cost loads of time to develop

Meh, I beg to differ.

You could create command prompt that loads text document then use a search replace method to find all " is" to replace with " ".

and stuff like that. Then you can do a function to load different paragraphs and sort through order of most characters to get most info first.

LOL. Find-and-replace != artificial intelligence

1. Find code
2. Replace credits
3. ???
4. Profit.

You should think like a leecher when reading posts made by some with CA in their name.
A) Use regex - it will save you days in development at least
B) Use a table of sentance structures and have them reformatted. You'd have to identify the words though :/ there are a couple ways you could do it, maybe there are engines out there for this purpose.

(Subject) (adjective) (verb) (Conjunction) (adjective) (verb)
To
(Subject)
(verb)
(verb)

Idk, you could have a feature to render hidden adjectives incase they carried some significance.

Regex isn't that good for AI... A mixture of fragments and sentences are generally used, and English isn't formulaeic, so it won't work that well. Time to call in Watson

What made you think I was suggesting you use a regex engine for 'AI'? It's incredibly powerful for parsing text documents and tokenizing them into something programatically identifiable which is what I was intending it be used for. I doubt it's even considered AI. It's called parsing and tokenizing text. Hence why I suggested you use a table of potential sentence structures.

After you tokenize the text it's a matter of rephrasing and pattern identification.

Dunno, bad assumption?
Not if you use machine learning to build the rules automatically by comparing your notes and the text together. The AI can start to see which words are important with simple rules. If you try to build the list of rules yourself history has shown time and time again that this takes forever and then is not very reliable.

EDIT: Also you shouldn't be taking 20 pages of notes, that defeats the point of notes. Learn to take better more concise notes.
Flames you stole my color fag. And yea it would take loads of time to develop. But the computer could filter rudimentary words first like the words without definitions then based on a set of predefined user "Topics" filter out words that don't pertain to the topic using a dictionary.com search. Then once it has the important words it makes a big long list, then starts sorting to find important words that come up multiple times, to find out the main ideas, then as they become less and less repetitive it starts to sort out the words of lower hierarchy value and creates an outline, sortof.

EDIT: Anyone else intrigued by this kind of "Artificial Intelligence" work?

I meant notes of 20 longass pages in my textbook. I only have 4 pages written. It's closer to 26~27 but I was just saying ya know?
Of course its possible.. what kind of a question is that? :L

If people can transform applications to something they were never intended to do through a lonely DLL that wasn't even included in an application, think if what you could do if you own the application itself.

+1

An entire year of uni bio = 10 pages of notes.. maybe you'd think i'm missing something, but its all there

When programming for user experience, you do not want the user to have to input ANYTHING other than notes (for a notes app). Advanced settings can be placed somewhere, but for most users, they won't want to have to touch anything (including a setup file) to get an application working.
