Topic pages aggregate useful information about an entity or concept into a single succinct and accessible article. Automated creation of topic pages would enable their rapid curation as information resources, providing an alternative to traditional web search. While most prior work has focused on generating topic pages about biographical entities, in this work, we develop a completely automated process to generate high-quality topic pages for scientific entities, with a focus on biomedical concepts. We release TOPICAL, a web app and associated open-source code, comprising a model pipeline combining retrieval, clustering, and prompting, that makes it easy for anyone to generate topic pages for a wide variety of biomedical entities on demand. In a human evaluation of 150 diverse topic pages generated using TOPICAL, we find that the vast majority were considered relevant, accurate, and coherent, with correct supporting citations. We make all code publicly available and host a free-to-use web app at: https://s2-topical.apps.allenai.org

This paper presents Topical, a novel deep neural network for repository level embeddings. Existing methods, reliant on natural language documentation or naive aggregation techniques, are outperformed by Topical's utilization of an attention mechanism. This mechanism generates repository-level representations from source code, full dependency graphs, and script level textual data. Trained on publicly accessible GitHub repositories, Topical surpasses multiple baselines in tasks such as repository auto-tagging, highlighting the attention mechanism's efficacy over traditional aggregation methods. Topical also demonstrates scalability and efficiency, making it a valuable contribution to repository-level representation computation.
