Features

• Download arXiv Papers
  Search for and download a specified number of PDF papers from arXiv based on the keywords provided by the user.

• Large Model Q&A
  For each downloaded paper, extract the first page from the PDF and use the local large model to generate a Chinese summary along with an evaluation score for the paper.

   ollama pull deepseek-r1:1.5b
   

2. Install paperagent

Install using pip:

pip install paperagent

from academicagent.agent import run_agent

run_agent(paper_keyword="object detection", total_count=1, save_path="papers", model_name="deepseek-r1:1.5b")
