The peer-review literature as a network
Every paper in the corpus, positioned by who cites whom, shared references, co-citation, topical similarity or time. Switch the layout to reorganise the same papers; recolour by any facet; toggle the edges. Click a node for its summary, labels, citation counts, neighbours inside the corpus and references out into the wider literature. Positions, clusters and codings are computed by established methods and are provisional pending source verification.
Nodes: 1,123 corpus papers. Edges: 8,422 in-corpus citations, 29,030 bibliographic-coupling links (three or more shared references), 15,756 co-citation links (co-cited by at least two corpus papers). Outside-corpus references resolved via OpenAlex (17,533 of 19,108 works). Layouts via force-directed placement and UMAP; communities via Louvain; topics via BERTopic. Codings and summaries are AI-generated and provisional, to be verified against the primary source before citation. Self-authored studies are flagged.
