arXiv:2510. 16152v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scientific literature is increasingly fragmented by disciplinary boundaries, specialized terminology, and potentially sparse keyword systems, making it difficult to capture the evolving structure of modern science.
arXiv:2608. 07254v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The increasing specialization of scientific research challenges existing classification systems, which provide effective representations of broad disciplines and research topics but often fail to capture the fine-grained conceptual structure of contemporary science.
arXiv:2606.22342v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: How does research evolve, and can we trace it at the level of individual claims? Scientific progress is not simply a uniform accumulation of facts....
The paper maps the nascent social‑science literature on large language models (LLMs) by analysing 198 curated papers and 47,719 field‑scale papers. It identifies three main domains—LLM as Social Minds, LLM Societies, and LLM‑Human Interactions—each containing 13 subcategories such as reasoning, bias, collective intelligence, and trust. The taxonomy is validated through clustering stability, author classification agreement, and topic mapping, revealing differing prominence across conference and journal venues.
arXiv:2601. 00567v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Adapting general-domain retrievers to scientific domains is challenging due to the scarcity of large-scale domain-specific relevance annotations and the substantial mismatch in vocabulary and information needs.
Research methods are essential carriers of knowledge contribution in academic papers. Automatic multi-label classification of research methods can support knowledge services such as method retrieval, review generation, and research intelligence analysis.
The paper introduces WaterBERT, a domain‑adapted encoder model trained on a 2.97‑billion‑token water treatment corpus to capture domain‑specific semantics for literature mining. Fine‑tuned versions of WaterBERT outperform general‑purpose and other domain BERT models on tasks such as treatment process classification, named entity recognition, and relation extraction. The authors also demonstrate WaterBERT’s utility in large‑scale processing, generating coherent research topics, building a structured knowledge graph from 693,211 abstracts, and creating a Water Knowledge‑Enhanced Retrieval System that surpasses text‑based baselines.
arXiv:2609.14770v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generalisations are common in scientific communication, even though they are semantically ambiguous. An automated method is needed to identify and ca...
arXiv:2510. 18908v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Social media platforms such as Twitter (now X) provide rich data for analyzing public discourse, especially during crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
arXiv:2608. 07208v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing measures of how much a text is about a concept read the surface of the text: dictionary word shares, topic proportions, embedding similarities.
arXiv:2602. 17907v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Traditional neural topic models are typically optimized by reconstructing the document's Bag-of-Words (BoW) representations, overlooking contextual information and struggling with data sparsity.

arXiv:2606. 12413v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Students at all levels of higher education face a significant barrier in the form of information overload, which often paralyzes the initial stages of the research process and suppresses motivation.
