This study introduces a novel Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) platform designed to streamline the peer review process. By analyzing a case study of 10 scientific articles, we demonstrate that GAI effectively evaluates article quality and pinpoints specific areas requiring improvement. Our platform achieves an average similarity of 63.6%…

The literature search underpins data collection for all systematic reviews (SRs). The SR reporting guideline PRISMA, and its extensions, aim to facilitate research transparency and reproducibility, and ultimately improve the quality of research, by instructing authors to provide specific research materials and data upon publication of the…

Dictionaries for under-resourced languages are, like other dictionaries, traditionally in hard-copy form. Electronic online formats can improve access to dictionaries for under-resourced languages. To make it easier to create online dictionaries with linked sound and image files, starting from a Toolbox file or similar backslash-formatted…
