WikiRef: Wikilinks as a route to recommending appropriate references for scientific Wikipedia pages (C18-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods to enhance Wikipedia's reference section are not effective. |
| Approach: | They propose a two-step approach that leverages the wikilinks present in a scientific Wikipedia target page and recommends highly relevant references to be included in that target page appropriately and automatically borrowed from the reference section of the wikipedia links. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach achieves a notably good performance on two datasets from Computer Science and Physics. |

CitationIE: Leveraging the Citation Graph for Scientific Information Extraction (2021.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing work on scientific information extraction (SciIE) considers extraction solely based on the content of an individual paper, without considering the paper’s place in the broader literature. |
| Approach: | They propose to automate the extraction of key information from scientific documents by leveraging a complementary source: the citation graph of referential links between citing and cited papers. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model improves on a set of English-language scientific documents. |

Exploiting Citation Knowledge in Personalised Recommendation of Recent Scientific Publications (2020.lrec-1)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Keeping up with the most recent scientific literature is a challenge for many researchers given the continuous and increasing growth of academic publications. |
| Approach: | They propose to use citation knowledge to provide personalised recommendations of recent scientific publications to a particular user by capturing authors’ publication history and enriched with different forms of paper citation. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset captures authors’ publication history and is enriched with different forms of paper citation knowledge, namely citation graphs, citation positions, cited contexts, and citation types. |
ABCD-LINK: Annotation Bootstrapping for Cross-Document Fine-Grained Links (2026.eacl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Using retrieval models and LLMs achieves a 73% approval rate for suggested links, more than doubling the acceptance of strong retrievers alone. |
| Approach: | They propose a domain-agnostic framework for bootstrapping sentence-level cross-document links from scratch and apply it to large-scale human-in-the-loop annotation of natural text pairs. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework generates semi-synthetic datasets and uses them to benchmark and shortlist the best-performing methods and applies them in large-scale human-in-the-loop annotation of natural text pairs. |
