Show HN: Sci-Trust – Compare trust among researchers based on their citations
Sci-Trust is a viewer-relative reading tool for scientific research. It infers trust relationships from citation graphs, so each researcher sees a different ranking of papers, weighted by whom they trust. This makes it harder to game than citation counts and helps users onboard into subfields, trace intellectual lineage, or find papers respected by researchers they admire. It's also a read-only demonstration of UpTrust's trust algorithm, which can be applied to votes, peer reviews, and social networks.
No one told the system who trusts whom; it’s inferred from citations.
