Exploring Motivations for Algorithm Mention in the Domain of Natural Language Processing: A Deep Learning Approach
arXiv:2606.29859v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the rise of data-intensive science, algorithms have become central to scientific research. In academic papers, algorithms are mentioned for different purposes, such as describing, using, comparing, or improving methods for specific research tasks. Identifying these purposes can reveal relationships among algorithms and help assess their roles and value. Taking natural language processing (NLP) as an example, this study proposes a sentence-level framework for identifying, analyzing, and tracing the evolution of motivations for mentioning al
The proliferation of AI and specifically large language models has made understanding the utility and context of algorithms in research more critical than ever, necessitating advanced analytical tools.
This research provides a framework for deeper analysis of scientific literature, potentially accelerating scientific discovery and improving the efficiency of algorithmic development and application in fields like NLP.
The ability to automatically identify motivations for algorithm mentions can lead to more structured and faster meta-analysis of research trends, identifying influential algorithms and their impact.
