# Academic Research Paper Assistant
An intelligent assistant that helps researchers search, analyze, and synthesize academic papers using Large Language Models (LLMs). The application provides multi-agent capabilities for paper search, question answering, summarization, and future research direction generation.
[Watch the Project Demonstration on YouTube](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DpunojtYDFE)
## Features
- **Paper Search**: Search and retrieve relevant research papers from Arxiv
- **Question Answering**: Get answers about specific papers or content with source citations
- **Summarization**: Extract key findings and trends from multiple papers
- **Future Works Generation**: Generate research directions and improvement plans
- **Interactive UI**: User-friendly Streamlit interface for paper browsing and chat
## Architecture
The application uses a multi-agent system with the following components:
- **Intent Agent**: Classifies user queries to route to appropriate specialized agents
- **Search Agent**: Retrieves and processes papers from Arxiv
- **QA Agent**: Handles specific questions about paper content
- **Summarization Agent**: Synthesizes information across multiple papers
- **Future Works Agent**: Generates research directions and review papers
## Technology Stack
- **Frontend**: Streamlit
- **Backend**: FastAPI
- **LLM Integration**: Google Generative AI
- **Vector Store**: FAISS
- **Document Processing**: LangChain
- **PDF Processing**: PDFMiner
## Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Sanket-Kathrotiya/Academic-Research-Paper-Assistant.git
```
2. Create and activate a virtual environment:
```bash
conda create --name venv
conda activate venv
```
3. Install dependencies:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
4. Set up environment variables:
```bash
# Create .env file
GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
```
## Usage
1. Start the application:
```bash
cd src
streamlit run app.py
```
2. Open your browser and navigate to `http://localhost:8501`
3. Enter your research topic or question in the chat interface
4. Select papers of interest from the timeline view
5. Interact with the assistant through natural language queries
## Example Queries
- "Find papers about text-to-SQL"
- "What are the key findings in Paper X?"
- "Summarize the advancements in this field over the last 5 years"
- "What are potential future research directions?"
- "Generate a review paper outline"
