FCNote FCWeb FCReader • Author-centric vs. reader-centric • Piecemeal solution vs. unified approach
Overview • ForeCite • Architecture • Design principles • FCWeb • FCReader • FCNote • Backend components
ForeCite - Architecture • Ruby on Rails framework • Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern
ForeCite - Design Principles • Web services (WS) platform: WS server as a broker + rudimentary load balancer • Reader-centric platform: explore, read, and synthesize Deeply interlinked components FCW/R/N Table 2: Publicly available ForeCite web services
FCWeb - Homepage • Search interface to FC • Paper statistics - a more dynamic presence • Most read – FCReader • Recently added – FCWeb & FCNote • Recently annotated – FCReader & FCNote • User statistics • Most active – based on # of public annotations
FCWeb - Views • Paper (left): view metadata • keywords, reference and citation info from KEA&ParsCit • annotations and user reviews made in FCReader & FCNote • Person (right): regards users as both authors and readers
FCReader – Document annotation • Reading environment + sensemaking the content • Highlights & anchor notes, Reviews (saved into FCNote) support collaborative annotations
FCReader – Document analysis Rhetorical structure (RAZ) Keywords (KEA) Logical structure (ParsCit++)
FCNote – Bibliographic manager + notetaking system • Access to documents’ metadata & own annotations (online) • Synchronization mechanism http://FCNote.comp.nus.edu.sg • Key difference in client-side (offline) • Self-contained HTML page – A heavy modification from TiddlyWiki
FCNote – Note creation & document ingestion • Normal vs. research notes • Research notes: • Title suggestions • Paper metadata • 2-level tagging: tasks & tags • Share notes (FCReader, FCWeb) • Document ingestion: • PDF or BIB (single/multiple) • Paper metadata, keywords, references automatically extracted (for PDF) • Local document management
Backend components • KEA: Automatic Keyphrase Extraction • ParsCit: Reference String Parser • ParsCit++: Section Labeler • RAZ: Robust Argumentative Zoning • Kairos: Crawler for Paper Metadata • Record Matching and Canonicalization • FireCite: Browser-based Metadata Extraction from Publication Web Pages
