WikiLink Smart

• WikiLink Smart is a semantic network designed for combinatorial creativity.
• It's constructed based on statistical weights using Wikipedia data and semantic weights using fastText. It's further filtered using spaCy's en_core_web_trf model.
• For ideas diverge and converge, it supports neighborhood exploration and shortest path finding with node masking strategy.

* For idea generation, it further incorporates LLM to generate design ideas based on concept nodes chosen by users, following a "Base Concept + Additive Concept" - "Idea Explanation" - "Design Description" chain-of-thought few-shot prompting strategy.

Getting Started

Installation

WikiLink Smart is developed and tested on Windows platform.

Package Requirements:

• Python >= 3.7
• OpenAI API key (We use gpt-3.5-turbo as default LLM backend)

Create conda environment:

python -m venv venv 
venv\Scripts\activate 

Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

To use gpt-3.5-turbo as LLM backend, make sure you have some funds (at least 3 dollars) in your OpenAI account and set your OpenAI API key:

• Windows:

set OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-xxxx

Run code

first make directory data/，

mkdir data

and download files of semantic network from here and put them(test6_37_28_nominus_updated_cleannameplace2.gpickle and word2id_from_graph.json) in data/ directory.

Within the repo, run the following command in your terminal:

python server.py

This will start a web application page and you can explore WikiLink Smart in it.
