Science has time and again proven to be one of the most powerful tools in finding solutions to the problems faced by the world. Let it be natural or man-made challenges, hard work put into finding efficient answers to tackle them has proven to safeguard the ecosystem. Sometimes the research community is put under pressure when humanity faces the challenge of survival like the Covid-19 pandemic. A great extent of published works needs to be studied to find an optimal solution to existing or new queries related to the virus. In this research work, we build an efficient data mining tool using the CORD-19 Dataset to help the community come up with answers to Covid-19 related questions. We use a combination of semantic and keyword search to reduce the solution space of our model. Our model makes use of parallelism, paraphrasing, and state-of-the-art natural language processing techniques which will serve as a time and energy-saving tool for the information need of all doctors and researchers who are trying to put an end to the pandemic and avoid future possible outbreaks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
