Show HN: Interactive research papers (a big step up from ArXiv HTML)

https://sciencestack.ai
9•cjlooi•2mo ago
I’ve been frustrated with PDFs and found arXiv HTML lacking, so I built a fully interactive paper reader.

Features: • Hover references, citations, equations • Light/dark mode • Auto-generated dependency graphs for definitions/lemmas/theorems • Table of contents that syncs with scroll • Highlighting + annotations • “Copy raw LaTeX” anywhere

Featured paper: Video models are zero-shot learners and reasoners (Veo 3) https://www.sciencestack.ai/arxiv/2509.20328v2

Cool project, the space is very crowded: https://x.com/JeffDean/status/1991053401061536027 and http://semanticscholar.org/ come to mind
cjlooi•2mo ago
Yea there were several attempts (including ar5iv), and distill.pub is no longer active + Semantic Scholar is PDF-based. None quite made the full use of HTML or have a robust conversion system. Jeff Dean's post is awesome - though using Gemini 3 is compute intensive and may still hallucinate in the end (I'm using a source-based latex to json parser). And the output is still...not very interactive.
billconan•2mo ago
I have a question, can it convert any pdf paper to this format? or I need the latex of that paper?
cjlooi•2mo ago
Works with any latex source

Just passing by to mention that if you get excited about seeing your upgrades in arXiv itself, we can talk about contributing them to the arXiv HTML pages.

But seeing your plans for Science Stack, all the best with the endeavour!

And I am curious to know if arXiv:2105.10386 works well.

cjlooi•2mo ago
It works! After the initial data load (big paper), the scrolling and performance works nicely.

Can visit at sciencestack.ai/arxiv/2105.10386

Note: no support for nomenclature/index yet. I'm also working on refactoring the data/json to a streaming model (right now it's one big json dump on load)

MrCoffee7•2mo ago
Why isn't there a dependency graph for the example paper "Sheaf Cohomology of Linear Predictive Coding Networks"?
cjlooi•2mo ago
Currently the dependency graph only works on newtheorems e.g. theorems/lemmas/definitions etc
