The study proposes a novel approach for automating meta-analysis in scientific documents using large language models (LLMs). The authors highlight the need for automated pipelines to streamline the process, as conducting meta-analysis by hand is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and prone to human error. They introduce a fine-tuning method that leverages Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and Inverse Cosine Distance (ICD) loss metric to optimize LLMs for generating structured meta-analysis content. The results show that fine-tuned models outperform non-fine-tuned models, with fine-tuned LLMs generating 87.6% relevant meta-analysis abstracts. The study demonstrates the potential of this approach in enhancing the efficiency and reliability of meta-analysis automation.

Meta-analysis is a way to combine findings from multiple studies into one big picture. Researchers usually do this by hand, but it’s time-consuming and can be wrong. This study shows how to use computers to help with this process. They used special language models that can learn from lots of data and make predictions. The models were fine-tuned to work well for meta-analysis and were able to generate reports that are very relevant. This means the computer can help researchers by making it easier and faster to do meta-analysis.
