• 2026.02.26 🔍 Efficiency upgrade: We have introduced a multi-stage pre-filtering system. New articles now pass through a 'funnel' starting with a Journal Blacklist and an OpenAlex Topic Pre-screening. Only relevant candidates proceed to the LLM analysis, significantly reducing processing time and focusing only on core hydrological and climate science.
• 2026.02.25 🛡️ System enhancement: We have officially transitioned to a peer-review-only policy. All preprints and non-journal sources (e.g., Zenodo, Figshare) have been excluded to ensure the highest academic quality. Meanwhile, our backfilling process continues at a steady pace, currently processing October 2025, and we continue refining our relevance filters.
• 2026.02.16 🎯 We are working on fine-tuning the filtering prompt. The goal is to reduce false positives from articles that lack a clear focus on water resources, hydrology, droughts, ...
• 2026.02.15 🔄 A backfilling script has been created and implemented. This tool will allow us to automatically retrieve and process relevant articles from previous months and years to complete the project's historical database.
• 2026.02.09 🚀 We officially launch the BiblioAssistant website. This portal was born with the mission to automate the monitoring of scientific literature in hydrology and climate change, facilitating the synthesis work for researchers.
