We propose a method for scientific terms extraction from the texts in Russian based on weakly supervised learning. This approach doesn't require a large amount of hand-labeled data. To implement this method we collected a list of terms in a semi-automatic way and then annotated texts of scientific articles with these terms. These texts we used to train a model. Then we used predictions of this model on another part of the text collection to extend the train set. The second model was trained on both text collections: annotated with a dictionary and by a second model. Obtained results showed that giving additional data, annotated even in an automatic way, improves the quality of scientific terms extraction.
