softcite/software-mentions
Softcite software mention recognizer, finding mentions and citations to software from within the academic literature
This tool helps researchers, librarians, and funders automatically identify and extract software mentions from academic papers, particularly PDFs. It takes scholarly documents as input and outputs a list of recognized software, along with details like its usage context, associated bibliographical references, and even its coordinates within the original PDF. This is ideal for anyone analyzing research trends, assessing software impact, or building scientific knowledge graphs.
No commits in the last 6 months.
Use this if you need to systematically find and characterize software tools discussed within large collections of scientific literature.
Not ideal if you're looking for general entity recognition beyond software mentions or if your primary input is not academic text.
