Is there a good ML tool for renaming PDFs? There are some tools out there but they assume a journal format.
- Reptur 3y agoI tend to just select all the files and then paste their filenames into a Chat AI and tell it to write mv commands to rename them however I need. May be more complicated if you need it to open the PDF to get content for the rename though.
- d7y 3y ago> renaming PDFs Sorry, I didn't understand. Why do you need ML tool for renaming PDFs? or did you mean rephrasing or rewriting in a different format?
- mattsan 3y agoMaybe they mean walking a file tree and cleaning up file names to match the titles on the covers of them more accurately?
- abnry 3y agoExactly. You download something from arxiv and the filename has no meaningful content in it. Generally speaking, you want the filename to be descriptive in some way, extracting the title of the document is a good start.
- bravura 3y agoYou can just import them all into paperpile, which has good ways of inferring the metadata like title author year etc. and then connect to your google drive. Which will download them with nice filenames.
