    Bhagwat, Devashree; Naleshwarkar, Kanad; Shailly, Ritish; Murali, Vivek; Bhujbal, Sanket (2024-05-03)
    Researchers use multiple tools daily, they often need to search for new papers pertaining to their field, save papers that they wish to cite, and check to make sure there are no grammatical errors in their writing. A few researchers and advisors would like to keep tabs on their ongoing projects. Sometimes they just want a tool that quickly summarizes a paper or a giant piece of text so they can skim through without spending hours. Paperpalooza is a tool we developed that integrates the solutions to all the above requirements into one single application that can be the one stop shop for any researcher.

    A huge collection of Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETDs) has valuable information. However, accessing the information from these documents has proven to be challenging as the process is mostly manual. We propose to build a unique Information Retrieval System that will support searching, ranking, browsing, and recommendations for a large collection of ETDs. The system indexes the digital objects related to the ETD, like documents, chapters, etc. The user can then query the indexed objects through a carefully designed web interface. The web interface provides users with utilities to sort, filter, and query specific fields. We have incorporated machine learning models to support semantic search. To enhance user engagement, we provide the user with a list of recommended documents based on the user's actions and topics of interest. A total of 57,130 documents and 21,537 chapters were indexed. The system was tested by the Fall 2022 CS 5604 class, which had 28 members, and was found to fulfill most of the goals set out at the beginning of the semester.
