Noy Sternlicht

I'm a first-year PhD student at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, advised by Dr. Tom Hope. My research leverages natural language processing to analyze scientific literature and identify new research directions.

I'm also an ex-Amazonian, where I worked as a software engineer for two years.

When I’m not wrangling papers, you can find me at my sewing machine 🧵🪡

CHIMERA: A Knowledge Base of Idea Recombination in Scientific Literature

Noy Sternlicht, Tom Hope

Arxiv Preprint

We present CHIMERA, a large-scale knowledge base of over 28K idea recombination examples mined from scientific literature. CHIMERA supports large-scale analysis of scientific creativity and enables applications in hypothesis generation and cross-domain exploration. We demonstrate how this data can be used to train models that generate novel and inspiring research directions.
