Dataset Viewer

The dataset viewer is not available because its heuristics could not detect any supported data files. You can try uploading some data files, or configuring the data files location manually.

ResearchIT metadata sidecar

A read-only SQLite mirror of the ResearchIT papers table (1,597,097 arXiv papers), carrying the indexes the upstream Turso database does not have.

Consumed by ResearchIT; the Dockerfile downloads metadata.sqlite at image build time.

Why

Turso has a single index (arxiv_id), so it serves point lookups quickly and everything else via a full scan of 1.6M rows. Measured:

query Turso sidecar
metadata for 50 ids ~1,200 ms 0.5 ms
trending by category ~15,000 ms 45 ms
MIN/MAX(update_date) times out (>100 s) 50 ms

Schema

  • papers — arxiv_id, title, authors, abstract_preview, categories, primary_topic, update_date, citation_count, influential_citations
  • paper_categories — one row per (paper, arXiv code); 2,953,666 rows across 176 codes. Indexed on (code, citation_count DESC) and (code, update_date DESC).

Coverage: update_date spans 2007-05-23 to 2025-05-30.

Rebuild with scripts/build_metadata_sidecar.py in the ResearchIT repo.
