What problem does it solve?
Academic-paper-helper reduces the time and friction of preparing conference-ready manuscripts by automating LaTeX template creation, BibTeX citation management, formatting checks, and pre-submission validation so authors can focus on content instead of formatting and compilation issues.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Conference templates: Generate complete LaTeX skeletons for NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, CVPR, ACL and other common venues to match template and style constraints.
- BibTeX management: Create and normalize BibTeX entries from messy inputs, enforce title and author casing rules, and add DOI metadata when available.
- Writing and format checks: Run academic-writing style checks (structure, passive/active voice guidance, abstract length) and verify figure/table/ citation consistency.
- LaTeX diagnostics: Diagnose common compilation errors, suggest fixes for missing packages, file path issues, and undefined citations.
- Pre-submission workflow: Provide a checklist-driven workflow for final verification including page limits, citation formatting, and supplementary material readiness.
- Use case: Rapidly scaffold a NeurIPS submission, convert collected references into a clean references.bib, fix LaTeX compile errors, and produce a submission checklist.
Quick Start
Generate a NeurIPS LaTeX skeleton titled "Efficient Transformers", produce a normalized references.bib from the following citation list, and run the pre-submission checklist.
