Abstract

We introduce S2ORC, 1 a large corpus of 81.1M English-language academic papers spanning many academic disciplines. The corpus consists of rich metadata, paper abstracts, resolved bibliographic references, as well as structured full text for 8.1M open access papers. Full text is annotated with automaticallydetected inline mentions of citations, figures, and tables, each linked to their corresponding paper objects. In S2ORC, we aggregate papers from hundreds of academic publishers and digital archives into a unified source, and create the largest publicly-available collection of machine-readable academic text to date. We hope this resource will facilitate research and development of tools and tasks for text mining over academic text. * denotes equal contribution 1 Instructions for access to the data and model are available at https://github.com/allenai/s2orc/ . 2 https://arxiv.org Corpus Papers w/ body text Citation contexts References to tables / figures / equations Linked to graph Academic disciplines S2ORC (PDF-parse) 8.1M full text yes S2ORC (full) multi S2ORC (LATEX-parse) 1.5M full text yes S2ORC (full) physics, math, CS PubMed Central (OA) 2.6M full text yes PubMed bio, med AAN (Radev et al., 2009) 25k full text no ACL Anthology comp ling Saier and Färber (2019) † 1.0M snippets no MAG physics, math, CS RefSeer (Huang et al., 2015) 1.0M snippets no CiteSeerX multi
