 ABSTRACT

In this project, we develop the "Seek AI" project which is an initiative aimed at
fostering better integration between senior students and fresher’s on university campuses.
This report presents an overview of the project, its objectives, methodology, key findings,
recommendations, and a conclusion, including the additional suggestion of facilitating the
sale of important items from seniors to freshers at reduced prices.

The project employed a mixed-methods approach, including surveys, focus groups, and
interviews with students and campus staff. The data collection and analysis methods helped
in gaining insights into the existing gaps and preferences of students regarding interaction,
mentorship, and the economical access to essential items.

The majority of abstracts are informative. While they still do not critique or evaluate a
work, they do more than describe it. A good informative abstract acts as a surrogate for
the work itself. That is, the researcher presents and explains all the main arguments and
the important results and evidence in the paper. An informative abstract includes the
information that can be found in a descriptive abstract [purpose, methods, scope] but it
also includes the results and conclusions of the research and the recommendations of
the author. The length varies according to discipline, but an informative abstract is
usually no more than 300 words in length.

quickly extracting critical insights, users can focus on deeper analysis and decision-
making without spending excessive time reviewing lengthy papers. Additionally, the tool
will simplify complex academic language, making research more accessible to non-
specialists and promoting interdisciplinary collaboration.

Another key objective is to ensure the consistency and accuracy of summaries, reducing
the risk of human error. The tool will generate unbiased, standardized summaries across
multiple papers, helping researchers conduct efficient literature reviews. By improving
knowledge management, it will prevent users from missing important insights amidst the
overwhelming amount of literature. The tool also aims to support broader knowledge
dissemination by simplifying research content for diverse users, fostering collaboration,

Processing (NLP), enabling them to generate concise, accurate summaries that improve
accessibility and productivity.

2. NLP and Transformer Models

AI-driven summarization tools leverage transformer models like BERT and GPT to
understand the context and extract key points from large texts. Transformer architectures
allow models to process long-range dependencies, capturing both syntactic and semantic
aspects of academic language. Notable works such as Sentence-BERT (SBERT) by
Reimers and Gurevych (2019) introduced sentence embeddings for better contextual
similarity, which form the foundation for AI-based semantic search and summarization.
OpenAI’s GPT models have also gained prominence by providing coherent summaries
and contextual responses, further refining the process of automated academic
summarization.

3. Semantic Search and Retrieval-Augmented Generation

AI tools do not merely generate summaries; they enhance them through semantic search
and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), a framework that combines NLP with
search algorithms to deliver context-aware summaries. IBM Research (2023) highlights
RAG's ability to bridge traditional search with advanced language models, enabling more
precise answers by retrieving relevant documents based on user queries. This integration
ensures that summaries generated align with the user’s specific needs and queries, a key
feature in academic research tools.

4. Accessibility and Interdisciplinary Collaboration

One of the challenges in research is that findings are often written in highly specialized
language, limiting accessibility for non-experts. AI-powered tools address this by
simplifying complex academic language, making research findings more understandable
to a broader audience. Google’s NotebookLM, for example, provides note-taking tools
integrated with LLMs, enabling users to explore summaries with greater ease and
facilitating interdisciplinary collaboration. By lowering the barrier to access, AI
summarization tools foster knowledge exchange across fields, enhancing the impact of
research.

5. Applications of AI Summarization in Academia and Beyond

The use of summarization tools is becoming widespread in academic and professional
domains. Students benefit from quick summaries for literature reviews, while researchers
use them to stay updated on developments across disciplines. In professional settings,
industries utilize these tools to extract insights from reports, saving time and improving

enable users to retrieve relevant literature efficiently, which is crucial in time-sensitive
scenarios such as patent searches and systematic reviews.

6. Summary Tools and Platform Integration

Most AI summarization solutions feature web-based platforms for ease of access. The
proposed AI summarization tool in this study utilizes Next.js and CSS for a user-friendly
interface, with backend integration relying on OpenAI’s API for summary generation. A
cosine similarity-based search engine ensures that user queries yield relevant research
sections, enhancing accuracy and usability. Additionally, platforms like arXiv provide rich
data sources for these tools, helping build robust knowledge bases that improve
summarization quality.

7. Challenges and Future Directions

Although AI-based summarization tools offer numerous advantages, certain limitations
exist. Models trained on general corpora may struggle with domain-specific terminology,
requiring further fine-tuning. Moreover, ethical concerns arise regarding the reliability of
automatically generated content, especially when used in high-stakes decision-making
scenarios. Future research could focus on developing domain-specific models that
improve accuracy in specialized fields, such as medical or legal research. Another
promising direction is enhancing interpretability in summarization models to ensure that
the generated summaries align with user expectations and eliminate potential bias.

This survey highlights how AI-powered summarization tools address critical pain points
in academic research by improving time efficiency, accessibility, and collaboration.
Through advanced NLP models, semantic search, and RAG frameworks, these tools

METHODOLOGY

5
5.1 Introduction :

The Seek AI project aims to streamline the process of understanding complex academic
research papers through AI-powered summarization. It uses advanced Natural Language
Processing (NLP) models to generate concise and accurate summaries, allowing users to
quickly grasp key insights, methodologies, and outcomes. The tool is designed for

5.2 Key Components :

1. Query Input and Embedding: The system begins with user input in the form of a
query. This query is transformed into a numerical vector or embedding, which
captures its semantic meaning. The embedding process involves using an NLP model
that represents the user’s input in a way that retains its contextual relevance, making it
suitable for comparison with the database of research papers.
2. Context Retrieval: Once the query is embedded, the system searches a vector
database containing precomputed document embeddings. These embeddings
represent the content of research papers, which have been processed and stored in
advance. By comparing the user query’s embedding with the stored document
embeddings, the system identifies the most contextually relevant sections of papers,

query with the corresponding text.
3. Response Generation: After retrieving the relevant sections, the system combines
this context with the user query to generate a comprehensive response. This process
involves creating a prompt that incorporates both the query and the retrieved content,
which is then passed to a large language model (LLM), such as OpenAI’s GPT API.
The LLM processes this combined input to produce a coherent and accurate response,
summarizing the essential points from the relevant research papers.
4. AI Summarization: The core feature of Seek AI is its ability to generate concise
summaries of research papers using the integrated LLM. The model identifies key
insights, methodologies, and outcomes, presenting them in a simplified manner that is
easy to understand for both specialists and non-specialists. This approach not only
saves time but also ensures consistency and eliminates human bias.
5. User Interface: The tool is built with a web-based application using Next.js and
CSS, offering a user-friendly interface. Users can input queries, view results, and
navigate through summaries seamlessly, enhancing the overall experience.
6. Data Sourcing: Research papers are sourced from platforms such as arXiv, where
relevant academic literature is scraped and fed into the system’s database for
processing.
