Cool! Have you considered tagging/sub-categorizing? That would be helpful to organize topics. I’ve often seen papers have a list of keywords somewhere on the first page that could be helpful for indexing

It's on the todo-list. Are you looking specifically for like sub-categories of a particular field? Like in computer science AI, Cryptography, etc.?

Oh hell yeah!

It can be hard to sift through the all the random papers on Arxiv or something, but I do try my best to keep up with current research. Obviously I don't have the time or ability to read every single paper (much as I wish I could!), but I do try and at least read the abstract, introduction, and conclusion to CS papers that are relevant to me, though the "relevant to me" part can be hard to figure out a lot of the time.

Having an "HN-like" experience for research papers could really help with that, I love the idea!

Out of curiosity, what did you build this in? Since I do think this has potential to get to HN-levels of success in the academic world, have you thought about scaling?

This is really cool, I'd love to see this pull data from [1] HuggingFace, [2] Replicate Hype, and [3] GitHub. [1] https://huggingface.co/models?sort=trending [2] https://hype.replicate.dev/ [3] https://github.com/trending

I'll try to accomodate this, thanks for the feedback!

I work at an FPGA company so anything FPGA-related would be cool :)

To capture the most popular topics, you can grab the topics of the top N most attended academic conferences as a starting point
