Outline

This paper proposes DeepWriter, a customizable, multimodal long-form writing assistant tool to overcome the limitations of large-scale language models (LLMs), which struggle to be utilized in specialized fields such as finance, medicine, and law. DeepWriter leverages an offline, refined knowledge base to perform tasks, outline generation, multimodal information retrieval, paragraph-by-paragraph writing, and review. It leverages both textual and visual elements from a structured corpus to generate factual, consistent, and expert-level documents, while hierarchical knowledge representation enhances retrieval efficiency and accuracy. Experiments on financial report generation demonstrate that DeepWriter outperforms existing methods in both factual accuracy and generated content quality.

Takeaways, Limitations

Takeaways:
Presenting new ways to enhance the utility of LLMs in specialized fields.
Improving information reliability and consistency by leveraging offline knowledge bases
Improving the quality of content created by leveraging multi-modal information
Increasing search efficiency and accuracy through hierarchical knowledge representation
Performance verification in real-world applications such as financial report generation
Limitations:
Currently focused on generating financial reports, but needs to be verified for scalability to other specialized fields.
Consider the cost and effort involved in building a custom knowledge base.
The need for continuous updating and management of offline knowledge bases
Further research is needed to determine generalizability across various fields of expertise.
