Document Workflow

Academic paper research: Search → Download LaTeX → Read & Summarize

Quick Start

1. Search Papers

python -m skills.document-workflow.scripts.search_papers --query "world model" --max_results 5 --year_from 2024

2. Download LaTeX Source

python -m skills.document-workflow.scripts.latex_reader "2301.07088" --keep

3. Read & Summarize

Read the LaTeX source files and summarize following the reading guide below.

Reading Guide

After downloading LaTeX source to arxiv_{id}/, read the .tex files in this order:

Step 1: Get Metadata

Read the main .tex file (usually main.tex, root.tex, or {paper-id}.tex) for: - title{} - Paper title - author{} - Authors - begin{abstract}...end{abstract} - Abstract

Step 2: Understand the Problem

Read the Introduction section (usually intro.tex, 1-introduction.tex, or first section): - What problem does this paper solve? - What are the key contributions? - How does it relate to prior work?

Step 3: Understand the Method

Read the Method/Approach section: - What is the proposed approach? - Key equations in begin{equation}...end{equation} or begin{align}...end{align} - Algorithm pseudocode in begin{algorithm}...end{algorithm}

Step 4: Check Experiments

Read the Experiments section: - Datasets used - Baselines compared - Metrics in begin{table}...end{table} with results - Key findings

Step 5: Check References

Read the .bib or .bbl file for: - Related work citations - Key papers in the field

Output Schema

Summarize the paper in this JSON format(see more details in ./references/output_schema.json):

  },
  "experiments": {
    "datasets": ["Dataset 1", "Dataset 2"],
    "baselines": ["Baseline 1", "Baseline 2"],
    "metrics": [
      {"name": "Metric name", "description": "What it measures","definition":"Mathematical definition or formula for the metric"}
    ],
    "results": [
      {"setting": "Dataset", "metric": "Metric", "proposed_method": "Score", "best_baseline": "Score"}
