In today’s world of increasing publications and their availability in the format which are not machine readable has led to the development of the tools by semanticClimate. pygetpapers (see video example) is one of them which is being used 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:

1- To train Natural Language Processing (NLP) models for:

• Named Entity Recognition (NER)
• Automated summarization

2- Facilitate literature reviews:

• for identifying research gaps
• help in formulating hypotheses

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

• Bulk download of the data in less time
• Machine readable format 
• Single platform to access the data
• Automated article retrieval from open access repositories
• Updated record of literatures
