Project description
Innovative AI-based text enhancement solution
Scientific publishing is placing an increasing emphasis on speed, especially in fields like medicine and sustainable energy. A recent survey shows that more than 56 % of academics express frustration with their inability to publish quickly enough. Furthermore, the considerable time spent selecting words and rearranging paragraphs significantly impacts the core scientific work. The EU-funded PeTER project has developed an innovative AI-powered text-enhancement algorithm. It allows users to input a schematic draft, which is then transformed into a polished scientific or technical text. This prototype, known as SageWrite, assists researchers in producing better papers at a faster pace. It has the potential to incorporate personalisation based on the preferred style and field of expertise.
Objective
Every year, more than 9 million articles are submitted for publication by almost 25 million academics around the world. Scientific publishing is increasingly shaped by an emphasis on speed, particularly in high-stake areas such as medicine and sustainable energy. The advent of scientific preprints has greatly improved our ability to access scientific publications in a timely fashion, but the burden of actually writing those publications still rests solely on the shoulders of overworked researchers. Scientific writing is a challenging, laborious, time-consuming task, and one that most researchers feel they are failing at: according to a recent survey we carried, 79% of our almost 400 respondents stated they have trouble completing more than half of their papers. For over 56% of them, the frustration behind not publishing fast enough is among the top three problems they feel the worst about in their lives as academics. For over 23 % of them, this is the very first source of anxiety.
The more time a researcher spends painstakingly choosing words and rearranging paragraphs, the less time they have to collect data, analyze it, formulate theories and actually engage with the public. SageWrite wants to invest in research by giving researchers more time to focus on what really matters: the contents of their articles.
SageWrite offers a cutting-edge AI-powered text-enhancement algorithm that is specifically catered for scientific/technical text. Users input a very schematic draft of what they want to write, and our software generates the corresponding perfect text for them. SageWrite helps researchers write better papers, faster. We already have a working prototype that can generate grammatical text starting from a draft. We ask for WomenTech EU's help to add personalization to our platform: we want to research and develop ways to personalize the generated text output based on the user's preferred style and field(s) of expertise.
