Automatic matching PDF with reference

When you upload a file, Laser AI tries to match it to a reference. At first, model tries to match by filename format: The filename should follow a specific pattern for it to be matched - author's name, a year, and a title separated by a hyphen (-). For example, "AuthorName-2020-Title.pdf". Next, model match by filename components, e.g. year or title 

Detailed matching steps:

• First, the system checks if the uploaded filename follows the required format. If it doesn't, the matching process ends without matching the file to any of the references.
• Then, the system extracts the author's name, the year, and the title from the filename.
• With the extracted information (author's name, year, and title), the system then looks in the database to find a matching reference.
• If a match is found, the system links the file to the first reference found in the database.
• If no match is found, the process ends without matching the file to any of the references.
