Automatic Paragraph Generator (APG)

A program that helps you complete your english/history homework. Just kidding. This program is for RESEARCH purposes ONLY.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK (HOPEFULLY FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES), I DO NOT ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITIES.

What's New

Finally, I have managed to squeeze some time out to build a user interface for those who just hate command lines. Introducing APG V 3.0 - paragraph generation made faster and better with the core functionalities provided by its unique internal archetecture. The natural language unit was built by combining extjwnl, SimpleNLG, and CoreNLP library, all of which are open source projects that are well maintained & updated.

Obfuscation Demonstration

The user interface is pretty straight-forward, so just play around with it!

If you prefer command line instead...

Detailed documentation of workflow

So... if you ever want to make a program like this by yourself, I made my footsteps fairly easy to follow. Everything is transparent, not "magical". The console will tell you exactly what it does to generate your paragraph. Obfuscation Demonstration
