Mathematical Entity
Research on mathematical entities focuses on developing computational methods to understand and process mathematical text and symbols, aiming to bridge the gap between human-readable mathematics and machine understanding. Current efforts concentrate on creating annotated corpora and benchmarks for training and evaluating natural language processing (NLP) models, particularly for tasks like symbol-description linking and concept extraction. These advancements are crucial for building tools that can automatically extract information from mathematical literature, improving accessibility and facilitating knowledge discovery within the scientific community. Data augmentation techniques are also being explored to improve the performance of machine learning models in this challenging domain.
