TextStat

Inspiration

Comments on Youtube videos hold a lot of insight and feedback valuable to the creator but spam spoils the insights. Text response and feedback holds a lot of value but it is hard to comprehend due to its size, but if we can condense it down to numbers and summarize it, it can be made useful

What it does

It either takes a youtube video URL and gives stats on the comments or takes a twitter profile and gives stats based on the tweets. It also helps to find out all the questions asked in the comment section

How we built it

We built the backed with flask and TensorFlow serve. We used a sentiment analysis model whose data pipeline also uses a spam filter. The model was built using tf 2.0 and was trained on the IMDB dataset.

Challenges we ran into

Setting TensorFlow serve for the first time. Learning about tf 2.0.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

The TensorFlow model and the intuitive UI.

What we learned
