πŸš€ Quick Start

Loading from Hugging Face Hub (Recommended)

from datasets import load_dataset

# Load papers dataset
papers = load_dataset("deepscholar-bench/DeepScholarBench", name="papers")["train"]
print(f"Loaded {len(papers)} papers")

# Load citations dataset  
citations = load_dataset("deepscholar-bench/DeepScholarBench", name="citations")["train"]
print(f"Loaded {len(citations)} citations")

# Load important citations with enhanced metadata
important_citations = load_dataset("deepscholar-bench/DeepScholarBench", name="important_citations")["train"]
print(f"Loaded {len(important_citations)} important citations")

# Convert to pandas for analysis
papers_df = papers.to_pandas()
citations_df = citations.to_pandas()
important_citations_df = important_citations.to_pandas()

Example: Extract Related Works for a Paper

# Get a specific paper
paper = papers_df[papers_df['arxiv_id'] == '2506.02838v1'].iloc[0]
print(f"Title: {paper['title']}")
print(f"Related Works:\n{paper['clean_latex_related_works']}")

# Get all citations for this paper
paper_citations = citations_df[citations_df['parent_paper_arxiv_id'] == '2506.02838v1']
print(f"Number of citations: {len(paper_citations)}")

Example: Working with Important Citations

# Load important citations (enhanced with paper metadata)
important_citations = load_dataset("deepscholar-bench/DeepScholarBench", name="important_citations")["train"]

# This configuration includes both citation data AND the parent paper information
sample = important_citations[0]
print(f"Citation: {sample['cited_paper_title']}")
print(f"Parent Paper: {sample['title']}")
print(f"Paper Abstract: {sample['abstract'][:200]}...")
print(f"Related Work Section: {sample['related_work_section'][:200]}...")

# Analyze citation patterns
important_df = important_citations.to_pandas()
print(f"Citations with full paper content: {important_df['cited_paper_content'].notna().sum()}")
print(f"Citations with related work sections: {important_df['related_work_section'].notna().sum()}")
