Somewhere in this cloud is the paper that could change your life and you have no idea which one it is.

  Any ideas how could 'content discovery' work (or be improved) with the research papers? What is the current standard, just the keywords/topics/authors or is there something else?

    Forward and backward citations, every paper is a node in a graph of highly related content.

    Content discovery does work using citations. How it can be meaningfully improved, I don't know. Often, the missing piece will come from a completely different discipline. I don't see how this gap could be bridged using only citations, unfortunately.

      That's the thing. I understand that citations are good enough when you know what you're looking for (at least from my perspective), but imo there's no good solution to finding seemingly unrelated paper/research that could be 'the missing piece', hence the question about 'content discovery' :).
