Artificial Intelligence Final Year Topic: Design and Evaluation of Retrieval-Based Citation Placement

This Artificial Intelligence final year project examines attaching relevant source passages to claims in a short original draft through a bounded AI prototype with an explicit baseline and evaluation dataset.

Why choose this project topic?

A study of attaching relevant source passages to claims in a short original draft gives this topic a concrete purpose beyond simply adding an AI model. Comparing support precision, missed evidence and irrelevant citation rate helps a student demonstrate capability, inspect failure cases and explain where human review or a simpler method remains necessary.

How effectively can retrieval-based citation placement support attaching relevant source passages to claims in a short original draft, evaluated using support precision, missed evidence and irrelevant citation rate?

Choose a feasible licensed or synthetic dataset and available compute budget, then agree a narrow evaluation for attaching relevant source passages to claims in a short original draft with your supervisor.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define the task, evidence and evaluation assumptions for attaching relevant source passages to claims in a short original draft.
  2. 02Use original drafts and licensed reference passages, compare retrieval strategies and have reviewers assess whether each passage supports its claim.
  3. 03Measure support precision, missed evidence and irrelevant citation rate against a stated baseline and analyse failure cases.

A suggested research approach

Use original drafts and licensed reference passages, compare retrieval strategies and have reviewers assess whether each passage supports its claim. Check dataset permissions and keep evaluation examples separate from model development. Record model versions, prompts or training settings, then compare support precision, missed evidence and irrelevant citation rate using repeatable runs and retain incorrect outputs for a transparent limitations discussion.

What you will need

  • Original draft claims
  • Licensed source excerpts
  • Reviewed claim-evidence labels

Keep your project scope clear

A retrieved citation does not automatically support a claim and bibliographic details require verification. Generated project writing does not include a trained or deployed AI application.
