MapHub uses LLMs to generate daily relevance heatmaps for arXiv preprints

MapHub is a new tool designed to help researchers stay updated on new arXiv preprints relevant to their work. It uses a large language model to read papers and score their relevance to individual researchers based on their established portfolios. The tool generates daily heatmaps showing which papers touch whose work, with early blind ratings indicating that MapHub's top-ranked papers captured a significant portion of raters' own top-ranked research.

    MapHub: Daily Relevance Heatmaps of New arXiv Preprints for a Research Community

    MapHub, the MIDAS arXiv Preprint Hub, assesses each day's new arXiv submissions for every participant in a research community, with a large language model reading each paper against portfolios built for the participants. It publishes the relevance scores, from 0 to 100, as a heat…
