We are pleased to announce that our CTO, James Ravenscroft, was invited to exhibit a scientific paper at the Association of Computational Linguistics conference in July 2018. The research, led by James and co-authored by academics from University of Warwick and Aberystwyth University, was exhibited in the system demonstrations track at the ACL conference.
The paper discusses an open source framework designed to facilitate discovery of links between news articles and scientific papers. The tool uses NLP techniques to identify names of academics and research institutions in newspaper articles and suggests relevant scientific papers by querying citation networks provided by Microsoft, Scopus and Springer. James presented his findings at the annual conference.
