What Hacker News says?
You can more or less do this with scite's Citation Statement Search[1,2], or by setting email notifications when we detect new citation statements to one or more papers (grouped by a topic you're interested in like a disease or drug, an author, or more)[3]. Quick video of our citation statement search to give you a glimpse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYjCn-4uMJk [1] https://scite.ai [2] https://citation.to [3]…

So let's say paper A cites paper B. If you look at paper B, we show you: - how many times it was cited - the direct paragraphs from paper A where it was cited - the sections from paper A where paper B was referenced - ... and a lot more You c…

HN discussionWe (scite.ai) have extracted 918M citation statements (3 full sentences) from 27M full-text articles (more than half are from paywalled articles from indexing agreements). We've taken this an extra step and have classified the citation statements as providing supporting or contrasting evidence ( https://direct.mit.edu/qss/article/doi/10.1162/qss_a_00146/1... ) And, recently, have made these citation statements easil…

HN discussionWell, only because this is relevant to the bit about citations in academic papers: you may find what we're doing at scite interesting! https://scite.ai/ You can see how papers are cited by others, see the context around the citation snippet, and whether others just mention, support, or dispute your findings. Feedback is always welcomed (drop me a line at ashish@scite.ai if you have any thoughts)

HN discussionI'm not sure that's actually something we want within the institution. IMO the most important thing is improving the overall _reliability_ of research. On this note, and admittedly a bit of a (relevant) plug: I work at a startup called scite that's trying to improve this -- https://scite.ai Citations are the primary mechanism by which scientific papers "talk" to one another, and one of the systemic issues we see in…

HN discussionThis is part of what https://scite.ai/ is doing. They categorize citations as supporting, detracting, or neutral. The theory being you want to know if you’re citing something debunked. Scite also flags citations of retracted papers (and a Twitter bot that tweets when a new paper is published that cites a retracted study). And I think they have zotero integration (?) I have no affiliation other than I have met the fo…
