Hirshberg Avi Feller Eli Ben-Michael Brantly Callaway Anish Agarwal Dennis Shen Jonathan Roth Vasilis Syrgkanis Bruno Ferman Kaspar Wüthrich Alberto Abadie Ruoxuan Xiong Jann Spiess Proximity is measured over citations between two papers we both hold, weighted by how heavily one leans on the other, and is symmetric — it does not distinguish citing from being cited. Authors without a profile here are skipped, and a genuinely close colleague can be missing simply because their work is not in our arXiv corpus. Method: docs/06-citations-pipeline.md .
