    • Title: Finding Scientific Gems with Google
    • Authors: P. Chen, H. Xie, S. Maslov, S. Redner
    • Comment: The Google PageRank algorithm is used to judge the importance of papers in PRL, and compared to the raw number of citations. The algorithm gives more weight to papers that are cited by important papers, or those that have few references (the assumption is that each reference is then more important)
    • Idea: Modify my RefParse program to use the PageRank algorithm
