How To Use

Include the js-summarize file in your page and reference all of the necessary library items. Then:

var summarizer = new JsSummarize();
var summary = summarizer.summarize("Text title here","Full text here");
/*
	output summary array:

	[
		"Best summarizing sentence here.",
		"Second best summarizing sentence here.",
		"Third best summarizing article here.",
		                     ...
	]
*/

To Do

• Create a better tokenizer to parse out correct sentences. Right now there are a lot of problems parsing initials properly (ex. U.S.A. )
• Remove dependencies on other libraries (jquery, lodash, and sugar)
• Clean up and comment code
• Research and re-evaluate score calculating algorithms
