Title Generator Metrics

[yukieeeo]

Hello Mr.Mackenzie,

I happened to check out your title generator repository because I am actually working on a project related to the Youtube Title Generator.

Thank you for sharing your content but I don't quite understand how you calculated percentages of coherent titles and coherent Sub-strings. Could you please elaborate more?

Thank you!

Respectfully,

Hi Yuki,

Thanks for reaching out. Firstly, apologies for the delay in getting back to you - read this during my holiday and forgot to respond when I got back to work.

In this project, I evaluated coherent substrings entirely subjectively. Basically just looking at the text and deciding it was made some sense.

I recommend looking at the Going Forward section of the readme, https://github.com/AngusTheMack/title-generator#going-forward - as I elaborate on a possible means of isolating coherent sub-strings via n-grams, as suggested by my lecturer at the time.

I never got around to implementing that myself, so please let me know how it pans out if you do it!

Best,
Angus
