Overview

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.
