| Challenge: | Fig. 1 summarizes a scalable system for organizing published scientific literature into a heterogeneous graph . authors describe methods used to enable semantic features in www.semanticscholar.org . |
| Approach: | They describe a scalable system for organizing published scientific literature into a heterogeneous graph to facilitate algorithmic manipulation and discovery. |
| Outcome: | The proposed system can be deployed on a scalable platform and report empirical results for each task. |

Christopher Clark, Jordi Salvador, Dustin Schwenk, Derrick Bonafilia, Mark Yatskar, Eric Kolve, Alvaro Herrasti, Jonghyun Choi, Sachin Mehta, Sam Skjonsberg, Carissa Schoenick, Aaron Sarnat, Hannaneh Hajishirzi, Aniruddha Kembhavi, Oren Etzioni, Ali Farhadi
| Challenge: | Communicating with humans is challenging for AIs because of its complexity and multimodality. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a game of drawing and guessing based on Pictionary to test AIs' understanding of the world and multi-modal gestures. |
| Outcome: | The proposed game is a test for mixing language and visual/symbolic communication in AI. |
PAWLS: PDF Annotation With Labels and Structure (2021.acl-demo)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing tools for annotation of PDFs are limited to a web browser, allowing users to extract semantically meaningful regions from PDFs. |
| Approach: | They propose an annotation tool specifically designed for Adobe’s Portable Document Format (PDF) PAWLS supports span-based textual annotation, N-ary relations and freeform, non-textual bounding boxes. |
| Outcome: | The proposed tool supports span-based textual annotation, N-ary relations and freeform, non-textual bounding boxes. |
SUPP.AI: finding evidence for supplement-drug interactions (2020.acl-demos)

| Challenge: | Dietary supplements are used by a large portion of the population, but information on their pharmacologic interactions is incomplete. |
| Approach: | They propose an application to search evidence sentences extracted from the literature to identify supplement-drug interactions. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model extracts supplement information and identifies interactions using labeled DDI data. |
