Brainstorming - PURE Insights Volume 7 Cover Art

It is my honor to design the latest issue of PURE Insights. The illustration, which I titled Brainstorming, is of an intelligent Japanese writer named Keigo Higashino, who is known for his mystery and detective novels. Higashino\u27s stories prompt the reader to think about humanity and society critically. The ending of his books always gives readers a surprise and leave an impression, just as PURE Insights readers will be impressed by the excellent articles

PaperRobot: Incremental Draft Generation of Scientific Ideas

We present a PaperRobot who performs as an automatic research assistant by (1) conducting deep understanding of a large collection of human-written papers in a target domain and constructing comprehensive background knowledge graphs (KGs); (2) creating new ideas by predicting links from the background KGs, by combining graph attention and contextual text attention; (3) incrementally writing some key elements of a new paper based on memory-attention networks: from the input title along with predicted related entities to generate a paper abstract, from the abstract to generate conclusion and future work, and finally from future work to generate a title for a follow-on paper. Turing Tests, where a biomedical domain expert is asked to compare a system output and a human-authored string, show PaperRobot generated abstracts, conclusion and future work sections, and new titles are chosen over human-written ones up to 30%, 24% and 12% of the time, respectively.Comment: 12 pages.
