Background of the study
AI-driven document clustering organizes vast amounts of academic research into coherent groups by analyzing content similarity and thematic relevance. At Federal University of Petroleum Resources Library, Effurun, Delta State, this technology facilitates efficient navigation of digital repositories and enhances the retrieval of related research papers (Olayinka, 2023). Machine learning algorithms automatically group documents, thereby reducing the manual workload involved in indexing and categorizing academic materials. This clustering not only improves user experience by offering intuitive search results but also supports the discovery of emerging research trends and interdisciplinary connections. Adaptive learning within these systems ensures continuous refinement as new documents are added. However, challenges such as processing heterogeneous data and ensuring high clustering accuracy remain significant. This study evaluates the effectiveness of AI-driven document clustering in supporting academic research, focusing on operational efficiency, user satisfaction, and the potential for enhancing scholarly communication (Ibrahim, 2024).
Statement of the problem
Despite the advantages of AI-driven document clustering, the library at Federal University of Petroleum Resources faces challenges related to data heterogeneity and algorithmic accuracy. Inconsistent clustering can lead to misclassification, affecting research efficiency and user satisfaction. High computational demands and integration issues further complicate the implementation of these systems. This study seeks to identify these challenges and propose strategies to optimize document clustering for improved research support (Chinwe, 2024).
Objectives of the study
To evaluate the impact of AI-driven document clustering on academic research efficiency.
To identify challenges affecting clustering accuracy.
To recommend strategies for optimizing document clustering systems.
Research questions
How effective is AI in clustering academic documents?
What challenges limit clustering performance?
What measures can improve the accuracy and efficiency of document clustering?
Significance of the study
This study is significant as it examines the role of AI in enhancing document organization and retrieval in academic libraries. The findings will guide improvements in clustering algorithms, leading to better resource discoverability and research productivity at the Federal University of Petroleum Resources Library (Balogun, 2024).
Scope and limitations of the study
Limited to the topic only.
