SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill helps researchers and agents rapidly assemble a high-quality set of candidate papers by performing conservative screening using titles and abstracts, reducing time spent on irrelevant results.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Coarse screening of candidate papers using title and abstract cues to generate a structured set of candidates.
  • Output artifacts include screening_candidates with need_fulltext flags and a normalized, JSON-ready paper records.
  • Use Case: Build a first-pass shortlist before committing to full-text review, suitable for online searches or local metadata.

Quick Start

Provide a topic and optional filters to generate a candidate list for screening.

FAQPage Schema
How do I screen literature abstracts to build a shortlist before full-text review?

Screening literature abstracts involves evaluating titles and abstracts against inclusion and exclusion criteria to build a first-pass shortlist. This conservative screening generates structured paper records with flags indicating whether full-text review is needed.

What is the best way to generate a structured candidate set from local paper metadata?

Generating a structured candidate set from local metadata requires normalizing paper records into a JSON-ready format. You apply coarse screening using title and abstract cues to filter local files and output structured records with screening decisions.

Can I filter candidate papers by year range and inclusion criteria during abstract screening?

Filtering candidate papers during abstract screening accepts inputs like topic, keywords, inclusion criteria, exclusion criteria, and year range. These filters ensure the output paper records strictly match the specified constraints before full-text review.

How do I normalize paper records into JSON-ready format for academic literature?

Normalizing paper records into JSON-ready format transforms screened titles and abstracts into structured data. The process outputs normalized paper records accompanied by screening decisions and need_fulltext flags for downstream processing.

Does abstract-level screening work for both online sources and local metadata files?

Abstract-level screening works for both online sources and local metadata files. It normalizes inputs from either source into structured JSON-ready paper records, applying consistent screening decisions and need_fulltext flags.

Why do I need a need_fulltext flag in my paper screening results?

A need_fulltext flag identifies candidate papers that pass conservative title and abstract screening but require deeper evaluation. It separates clearly irrelevant results from those needing full-text review, optimizing the research workflow.
