### Dataset Summary

SPECTER: Document-level Representation Learning using Citation-informed Transformers. 
A new method to generate document-level embedding of scientific documents based on
pretraining a Transformer language model on a powerful signal of document-level relatedness: the citation graph. 
Unlike existing pretrained language models, SPECTER can be easily applied to 
downstream applications without task-specific fine-tuning.

Disclaimer: The team releasing SPECTER did not upload the dataset to the Hub and did not write a dataset card. 
These steps were done by the Hugging Face team.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

## Dataset Structure
Specter requires two main files as input to embed the document. 
A text file with ids of the documents you want to embed and a json metadata file
consisting of the title and abstract information. 
Sample files are provided in the `data/` directory to get you started.
Input data format is according to:

metadata.json format:

```

{
    'doc_id': {'title': 'representation learning of scientific documents',
               'abstract': 'we propose a new model for representing abstracts'},
}
```
