We present CiteAssist, a system to automate the generation of BibTeX entries
for preprints, streamlining the process of bibliographic annotation. Our system
extracts metadata, such as author names, titles, publication dates, and
keywords, to create standardized annotations within the document. CiteAssist
automatically attaches the BibTeX citation to the end of a PDF and links it on
the first page of the document so other researchers gain immediate access to
the correct citation of the article. This method promotes platform flexibility
by ensuring that annotations remain accessible regardless of the repository
used to publish or access the preprint. The annotations remain available even
if the preprint is viewed externally to CiteAssist. Additionally, the system
adds relevant related papers based on extracted keywords to the preprint,
providing researchers with additional publications besides those in related
work for further reading. Researchers can enhance their preprints organization
and reference management workflows through a free and publicly available web
interface.

CiteAssist 是一个自动化生成预印本的 BibTeX 条目的系统，简化了文献注释的流程。该系统提取元数据，如作者姓名、标题、出版日期和关键词，以创建文档内的标准化注释。它自动将 BibTeX 引文附加到 PDF 的末尾，并在文档的第一页上链接，以便其他研究人员立即访问文章的正确引文。此方法通过确保注释在不管用于发布或访问预印本的存储库如何都能保持可访问性，促进了平台的灵活性。即使预印本在 CiteAssist 以外的地方查看，这些注释仍然可用。此外，该系统会根据提取的关键词为预印本添加相关的研究论文，为研究人员提供除相关工作之外的其他出版物供进一步阅读。研究人员可以通过一个免费和公开可用的网络界面增强他们的预印本组织和参考管理工作流程。
