Products that do what WikTok – A Recommendation UI for Wikipedia does
Hi HN, WikTok is a UI for Wikipedia that lets you quickly swipe (or use your arrow keys) to navigate between random and recommended articles (based on the previous articles you interacted most with).

Let me know if you have any suggestions (or find any interesting articles!) Cheers,

But Arxiv and Open Review APIs weren’t as robust as Wikipedia, so I pulled the papers into a Postgres backend. Right now, I’ve indexed papers from a few recent ML conferences to see if this might be useful for others too. No signups required and it’s…

Small experiment of visualization of wikipedia articles as a graph using d3.js.<p>Articles with more traffic are bigger. I computed the semantic similarity using LSI with python (gensim) You have to scroll down/right a bit!<p>http://similarityapi.appspot.com/graph/?title=blade%20runner<p>There is also a JSON api: http://similarityapi.appspot.com/api/v1/?limit=100&title=blade%20runner<p>All feedback is appreciated:<p>@lucamartinetti [email protected]
