ScienceBeam: Using open technology to extract knowledge from research PDFs

Daniel Ecer and Giuliano Maciocci

We provided an overview of the progress we made on the ScienceBeam project and the output to date. We envision that the day a paper in a Word or PDF format can be seamlessly and automatically converted to semantically structured formats, we will unlock a multitude of new use cases - from greatly reduced form-filling when submitting to a publication, to instant access to online collaborative editing tools with no loss of key metadata. We hope that by sharing our progress so far, we might interest the community in bringing that day forward.
