# Navigating ACL Anthology
With the goal of understanding how scientific papers are related to one another, we plot their projections on a 2D plain in our interactive [demo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/gwf-uwaterloo/acl-spectrum).
## Data
We downloaded meta information of [ACL Anthology](https://aclanthology.org/) papers from [here](https://github.com/acl-org/acl-anthology/tree/master/data/xml).
Overall, 12,282 papers were derived from 4 conferences/journals, i.e. ACL (5.2K), EMNLP (4.6K), NAACL (2K), and TACL (442), over 7 years (2016-2023).
## Embeddings
We encoded the papers (titles + abstracts) using [spectre2](https://huggingface.co/allenai/specter2_base), a BERT-based model designed for scientific literature.
We applied t-SNE to reduce dimensions for visualization.
To learn about how we generated the plot, check out our step-by-step guide [here](scipapers_scatter.ipynb).
