Can a Transformer Assist in Scientific Writing? Generating Semantic Web Paper Snippets with GPT 2
The Semantic Web community has produced a large body of literature that is becoming increasingly difficult to manage, browse, and use. Recent work on attention based, sequence to sequence Transformer neural architecture has produced language models that generate surprisingly convincing synthetic conditional text samples. In this demonstration, we re train the GPT 2 architecture using the complete corpus of proceedings of the International Semantic Web Conference since 2002 until 2019. We use user provided sentences to conditionally sample paper snippets, therefore illustrating cases where this model can help at addressing challenges in scientific paper writing, such as navigating extensive literature, explaining the Semantic Web core concepts, providing definitions, and even inspiring new research ideas.
