Ad Detector Extension is a Chrome extension that uses machine learning to detect advertisements in YouTube videos in real-time. Developed as part of academic research into browser-based computer vision. 🚀 Key Features Ad Detection - Real-time advertisement detection using computer vision - Multiple AI models to choose from (ResNet, EfficientNet, MobileNet, Custom Temporal CNN) - Visual feedback when ads are detected with confidence scores Privacy - 100% local processing - no data sent to external servers User-Friendly Interface - Simple toggle to enable/disable ad detection - Model selection dropdown for different accuracy/speed preferences - Debug mode for developers and researchers Note: This is a proof-of-concept developed for academic research. While functional, it may not detect all advertisements with 100% accuracy. The extension is designed for educational purposes and to demonstrate the feasibility of browser-based AI applications.
