Friday October 24, 2025

We are participating in the OAW 2025 by hosting talk and workshop on opening up climate knowledge and scholarly literatures.

Our sessions will explore how semantic tools can be used to make research more transparent, equitable, and impactful—ensuring that critical knowledge is available to all, not locked behind paywalls.

The title of the session is "Open Science and Citizen Science with #semanticClimate: Open-Software for Knowledge Liberation".

Session 1 (Workshop): Corpus creation from open access repositories and their analysis with semantic tools

This session includes hands-on demonstration of semantic tool pygetpapers to create corpus of the open access literatures in a structured and machine readable format for further analysis on the corpus.

The applications of the semantic and structured corpus are the following:

This has also led to resolve the following challenges associated with exponential growth of publications.
