SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Enables researchers to locate published venue papers (IEEE, ACM, Springer, etc.) and gather essential metadata such as citations, venue, year, and TLDR, complementing arXiv preprints for comprehensive literature review.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Venue-focused search: query Semantic Scholar to retrieve published journal or conference papers with citations and venue metadata.
  • De-duplication with arXiv: automatically identify papers also on arXiv and avoid duplicative fetches.
  • Structured results & summaries: provide DOI links, authors, fields of study, and TLDRs for quick appraisal.

Quick Start

Search for published papers on a topic using Semantic Scholar and present the results with citations and venue metadata.
