Richardson Alan Hao Yang Alexander Volfovsky Zhexiao Lin Eli Ben-Michael Ilya Shpitser AmirEmad Ghassami Michael C. Knaus 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 .
