• Visual Exploration: Connected Papers provides a visual graph of academic papers, enabling users to visually understand the trends, popular works, and dynamics of their field of interest.
• Extensive Database: Connected Papers uses the Semantic Scholar database, which contains hundreds of millions of published papers across many scientific fields.
• Similarity-Based Connections: Connected Papers arranges papers according to their similarity, meaning that even papers that do not directly cite each other can be strongly connected and very closely positioned.
• Real-Time Analysis: Connected Papers analyzes an order of ~50,000 papers and selects a few dozen with the strongest connections to the origin paper.

• Visual Graphs: Connected Papers generates visual graphs of academic papers based on a single "seed" paper.
• Similarity-Based Connections: Connected Papers arranges papers in the graph according to their similarity.
• Prior and Derivative Works: Connected Papers allows users to discover the most relevant prior and derivative works.
• Multi-Origin Graphs: Connected Papers allows users to add multiple seed papers to refine the graph.

Connected Papers is used by researchers and applied scientists to find and explore academic papers relevant to their field of work.
