Repo that automatically pulls links to new eprints published on arXiv for machine learning research related to Bayesian methods for machine learning. Papers are found for key search terms listed against specific catagories. Current catagories are, bnn, causal, interpretable and variational. Papers are displayed in a markdown format, inspired by arXausality by Logan Graham, who displays new papers relating to causality and machine learning. This project works in a similar (though less comprehensive in implelementation), but allows for additional search catagories to be included. The papers for each catagory are listed in each corresponding directory.
Currently Supported Search Catagories:
BNNs (Bayesian Neural Netyworks)
Causal Inference (Link to arXausality by Logan Graham)
Fairness in Statistics and Machine Learning
Interpretable Machine Learning
Variational (and other approximation) Methods
MCMC (and other sampling based methods)
This Repo is automatically updated once a week on Fridays 12:30pm AEST (+10 GMT)
If you have used a previous commit of this package for your own searches and wish to update, have a look at the CHANGELOG.md which describes any changes (mostly formatting and name changes to become consistent with the arXiv API).
#install arxivpy
pip install git+https://github.com/titipata/arxivpy
#clone this repo
git clone https://github.com/ethangoan/arxivsearch.git
#add this module to your PYTHONPATH
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/<where you cloned this repo>/To add this package to your Python path permanently (on Linux), you can run the commands
echo export PYTHONPATH=\$PYTHONPATH:/<where you cloned this repo>/ >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrcSearching for recent preprints:
# search most recent papers from specified field
# should be in format of:
# ./bin/search <category_of_choice>
./bin/search variationalConcatenating the search reseults from the search script with previous search results and displaying them in a markdown format:
# ./bin/concatenate <category_just_searched_for>
./bin/concatenate variationalTo update all categories, cocnatenate the results and push to Github:
./bin/update_allI have made a bash script that will change to the directory of this repo, and then run the update script to push everything to this repo. This script is then added to cron so that it can be set to automatically run once a week.
To add your own search catagory,
- add a your own category class in
category.pythat inherits from thecategoryclass - set your general and specific terms as done in the other classes (look for some notes below on how you might want to specify these)
- Add your class selection to the
get_category()method - Update the
InvalidCategoryErrorexception string at the top to an informative error message of your choice - You can stop here if you just want to run the
searchscript, but if you want to run the concatenate and update all script keep playing along - Update the
bin/update_allscript to include the new search classes you made - If you want to use the Git markdown functionality, you will have to store your credentials using
git config credential.helper store. You will also have to change the remote path to your own repo where you can push to. - On a Linux machine, you can add the running the
update_allscript tocronto schedule it to run automatically (Will be able to do something similar on Windows or Mac)
The search function has 3 fields, the subject, generic_terms and specific_terms.
The subject refers to the arXiv subject category where the preprint was submitted. These are listed at the bottom of this page. You can specify which subject/category you want to search for in the self.subject attribute in the category parent class. The search function will only search within these categories.
The next terms are the general_terms and the specific_terms. The general_terms should be broad terms that are related to your field, for example, for my fairness category, I include general terms such as equality and bias which are common terms used when discussing fairness in systems. The specific_terms should be specific to your field of interest. Again, for the fairness category, I use specific terms such as algorithms and statistics to limit my search results to fairness preprints within the context of statistics and machine learning.
The search will work in the format of,
within_category & general_terms & specific_terms
where it will iterate over all of the different combinations of your terms.
The arXiv API describes a funky way for formatting your search queries. If you have multiple words in a term you want to search for, you need to format it in a way that arXiv will handle properly. For example, say you want to search for the term Monte Carlo, you will need to set your search term to %22Monte+Carlo%22. The %22 is basically a code that translates into double quotes, and the + sign is there as the URL that is sent to arXiv for the query can't handle spaces. I might automate this formatting at some point so you don't need to do this.
If you have any questions, or want me to add a catagory, please feel free to email me
