Paper Downloader

There are so many papers on the internet and we need to extract findings from them. Sometimes we need to label the papers manually or automatically. For example, we use the label studio to label the papers manually.

Before labeling, we need to prepare the papers for the NLP pipeline or the labeling pipeline first. This project is used to prepare the metadata of papers, download the pdf files of papers and convert the pdf files to html files.

If you want to deploy the full pipeline, you can use the prophet-studio project. Which is composed of the label-studio and the paper-downloader project.
