SciLinkBERT: A Language Model for Understanding Scientific Texts with Citation Information

Introduction

SciLinkBERT is a BERT-based pre-trained language model specifically designed to enhance the understanding of scientific texts by incorporating citation information. This model is particularly useful in scientific domains, where understanding complex language and extracting meaningful information from citations is crucial. [PDF]
