SummarizeBehavior Class

Generates a brief summary of long text.

Namespace: DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms

Assembly: DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms

Declaration

public sealed class SummarizeBehavior :
    ChangeTextBehaviorBase

Remarks

SummarizeBehavior supports the following summarization modes:

  1. Abstractive Summarization

    Generates a summary by understanding the context of the original text and rephrasing it in a new, concise form. The AI essentially “writes” a new summary based on its understanding, which may include new sentences that were not present in the original text.

  2. Extractive Summarization

    Selects and extracts key sentences or phrases from the original text. The AI identifies the most important parts of the content and combines them into a summary without altering the original wording.

The following code snippet registers a SummarizeBehavior and assigns it to a MemoEdit control:

using DevExpress.AIIntegration;
using DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms;

//...
public partial class MemoEdit : DevExpress.XtraEditors.XtraForm {
    public MemoEdit() {
        InitializeComponent();
        behaviorManager1.Attach<SummarizeBehavior>(memoEdit1, behavior => {
            behavior.Properties.SummarizationMode = SummarizationMode.Extractive;
        });
    }
}
