INTRODUCTION

Nowadays with growing technology, people are upgrading themselves for online-based things rather than their physical involvement. Our application which brings news around the world to one platform is not a new thing in the market but what we are expecting to give our clients is that we want to add the feature of text conversion from one language to other so that people find it easier to read in their native language rather than a foreign language. What we give in extra is the summary of the news being up to the content without hitting around the bushes, which saves the time for many of our clients, which would be great if we could implement as all of us know time is precious in this modern world.

OBJECTIVE

The main aim of our project is to create a news web application by using python Django in which users can find news in less than 100 words .For this, we have scrapped the news to less than 100 words and efficient enough to read. If they choose to read the full article to know more about the issue then links will be provided at the end. We are taking the news from some verified websites (only for news articles) because most of the online news websites copy the news from the top or verified websites. My databases will store the details of the user details for sign in, links and the mini-article. Stored details will be served to clients. “Mainly focused on wrapping up the news in less than 100 words so that users will find it easy to read the news, in-case user wants to read full article same can be done through links “. Also, we are trying to add one more feature which is language translation. For this conversion, we are using Google language converter modules.

PROBLEM IT SOLVES

The most important solution provided by this project is it saves a lot of time to the people who read or follow the news on a daily basis. It is not so easy for the user to follow every article on all the sites or newspaper and it takes a lot of time from their day to day life. Also it saves some coins from their pockets. Since we are also writing the news in less than 100 words , user finds it easy to understand news in a few minutes. It also reduces human oversight while writing the article in less than 100 words because sometimes they may overlook issues and miss some basic points. It helps to reduce human flaws in the news.

RESOURCES FOR THE PROJECT

The resources for the project mostly we need are only software, few datasets and need access to a super computer based on the progress of the work. The software Django tools, Html tools and Jupyter notebooks are useful to run the code. Also need a few datasets to train the models to make sure they are suitable for our model.

USEFULNESS

I have worked in ML, DL, Python, java, SQL, HTML but never explored Django so I thought it will be a new experience so that I will be able to learn new technology and also can enhance my skills over these technologies.I am also trying to learn how to connect different technologies. Most of my friends who are preparing for civils or law need to follow the news for their career. For them, checking every website and reading the news will be more time consuming. This will be more useful for them.

Our application mainly targets students, office workers, businessmen, teachers, and the list goes on. These people work all day long and get no time for refreshment or get to know the happenings around the world. With their busy schedule, they cannot afford much time for news reading as they have to pick their favorite news blog or website which might be time-consuming. Here, in our application we tend to make their work easier by bringing all the interesting news around the world into a single platform with the news being summarized on every article they look for and the advantage of our application is that they get to translate the news into their native language so that people who cannot read English find it easier as they can understand the news in their native means.

DIFFERENCE FROM OTHER WEB APPLICATIONS

When it comes to the differences we can easily find some; the closest or similar to this application was google news where user can find headlines of the news and the image related to that news if a user wishes to know more about the news, then he needs to clicks on that headline, then the page will be redirected to the news article. But in our case, user can read the news in less than 100 words which is short where users get important point that the user needs to know about the news. Even after reading the summary of the news, if the user still chooses to read the full article link will be available at the end where the user can read the full article. You can find some of these features in some kinds of apps and some are completely new like a language translation in a news app which is never thought of and if things worked out well this will be a game-changer in this industry because it never happened before. Also, all features combining at a single place will be a great experience for the viewers as user interface for this page is also going to be nice.

MY SKILLS

For the last 3 years i have exposure to learn a lot of industrial techniques which are very useful to me to carry out different kinds of projects and also combining lots of individual technologies together to make a good and efficient projects which will be a big boost for my career and also very good learning experience of learning new things. Artificial intelligence is a present booming technology that the industries are using right now. In this field, I have good experience of doing some projects which will be very useful for my career. Also my strong coding background regarding programming languages such as python, java, c++, Ml, Deep learning , SQL will be very useful to carry out the project.

MORAL EXCEPTIONS

There are few morals and Ethics we have to consider for posting the news. For example, take this corona crisis situation, some companies lost some projects or lost its reputation. If we write this news in websites, it may embarrass them and sometimes may end up writing fake news because of speculations. For language translation, we are using google trained models so that we have to check whether we can use those models or have to face legal issues. Also, we want to keep the news of our site safe.
