Paper Copilot: A Self-Evolving and Efficient LLM System for Personalized Academic Assistance
It addresses the challenge of efficient and personalized literature navigation for researchers, though it appears incremental as it builds on existing LLM and retrieval methods.
The paper tackles the problem of researchers struggling to navigate vast literature by introducing Paper Copilot, a self-evolving LLM system that provides personalized academic assistance, resulting in a 69.92% time saving after deployment.
As scientific research proliferates, researchers face the daunting task of navigating and reading vast amounts of literature. Existing solutions, such as document QA, fail to provide personalized and up-to-date information efficiently. We present Paper Copilot, a self-evolving, efficient LLM system designed to assist researchers, based on thought-retrieval, user profile and high performance optimization. Specifically, Paper Copilot can offer personalized research services, maintaining a real-time updated database. Quantitative evaluation demonstrates that Paper Copilot saves 69.92\% of time after efficient deployment. This paper details the design and implementation of Paper Copilot, highlighting its contributions to personalized academic support and its potential to streamline the research process.
