Name	Description
Abstractive

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.

| | Extractive |

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.

Remarks

SummarizeBehavior supports the following summarization modes:

Abstractive Summarization
Extractive Summarization

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

VB.NET

csharp

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;
            behavior.Properties.PromptAugmentation = "Always translate the result into English.";
        });
    }
}

Imports DevExpress.AIIntegration
Imports DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms

'...
Partial Public Class MemoEdit
    Inherits DevExpress.XtraEditors.XtraForm

    Public Sub New()
        InitializeComponent()
        behaviorManager1.Attach(Of SummarizeBehavior)(memoEdit1, Sub(behavior)
            behavior.Properties.SummarizationMode = SummarizationMode.Extractive
