HERMES framework extracts structured data from ultra-long geoscience documents

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed HERMES, a multi-agent framework designed to extract structured data from lengthy scientific documents, particularly in geoscience. This system utilizes a coordinating large language model to integrate domain constraints, validation rules, and evidence tracing, processing text, tables, figures, and captions. When applied to the 55-volume Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, HERMES successfully created a structured database of over 32,000 fossil taxonomic entities and 450,000 attributes, achieving high F1 scores for extraction accuracy and significantly improving efficiency compared to manual methods. The framework also demonstrated its adaptability by performing well in palaeomagnetism and geochemistry without additional training, offering a path to convert historical scientific literature into FAIR-compliant structured data. AI

IMPACT Enables efficient conversion of historical scientific literature into structured, FAIR-compliant data for broader accessibility and integration.

    HERMES: a multi-agent framework for structured knowledge extraction from ultra-long documents in geoscience

    arXiv:2608.14055v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Authoritative scientific knowledge in geoscience remains largely trapped in legacy monographs and historical literature, where unstructured text and complex layouts hinder computational access. We introduce HERMES, a scalable multi-…
