super powerful search

Inspiration

People needs more convenient tool

What it does

Grab the database from the ELSEVIER medical database and display the search results on a webpage. In addition, we display the number of relevant papers vs time, showing the trend of the research topics.

How I built it

We use the ELSEVIER api to get access to the medical paper database, organize/analyze the data and display the results using flask to a webpage.

Challenges I ran into

We have no experiences, need to start everything from scratch.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We successfully create a preliminary version of the search/analysis tool.

What I learned

python, javascript, flask, api requests

What's next for super powerful search

optimize the UI; add in more data analysis results, using machine learning algorithms (clustering, LDA); make it more powerful
