Abstract: 

Most of the cutting-edge science is built on scientific software, which makes scientific software often as important as scholarly articles. Despite that, the software is not always treated as such, especially when it comes to funding, credit, and citations. Additionally, with the ever-growing number of open-source software tools, it is impossible for many researchers to track tools, databases, and methods in a specific field.
In this work, we leverage machine learning to automate systematic cataloging and build a comprehensive and queryable knowledge base of scientific software mined from scientific articles (including preprints) with a focus on the CORD19 dataset.
