An alternative to Papers With Code using their database — looking for feedback and collaborators #117
Description
I’m an ML engineer, and I used to rely on Papers With Code to find the latest models for specific topics or datasets. I was pretty disappointed when the project was discontinued and the site went offline for a while.
So, I decided to build an alternative — starting with the last published Papers With Code database, then cleaning and restructuring it, and adding a data processing pipeline. From here, the idea is to grow it with community contributions and ideas.
We’re using GitHub Issues as the main platform for:
-Submitting missing papers, datasets, or code links
-Suggesting new features
-Reporting bugs or incorrect data
All the main elements — papers, datasets, subsets, methods, benchmarks, and venues — are interlinked, so you can click your way through related content, sort of like Wikipedia for ML research.
I’m looking for feedback on how to make this a genuinely useful alternative to PWC. You can help by:
-Reporting bugs
-Suggesting features
-Submitting missing repo links for papers
-Or even collaborating to improve the platform

Would love to hear your thoughts and ideas!

@ma-abdellaoui I've heard that HuggingFace had an agreement with Papers With Code to close the site and open their own section called "Daily Papers" (see here). However, it’s quite limited and doesn’t match the experience I was used to with Papers With Code. I’ve been really frustrated that such an amazing resource was removed so easily.
I just came back from vacation and discovered your alternative. I haven’t explored it in depth yet, but at first glance it looks fantastic. It’s the first time I’ve seen something that comes so close, and maybe even surpasses, in terms of design.
Thank you for building this! I don’t have time to contribute right now, but I’ll definitely share it tonight.

@ma-abdellaoui Unless I am doing something wrong, the search seems to be broken. Is it expected to work as of now?
Also, it would be great if HF/original Paerwithcode team could comment on their plans for trending papers. As of now, the functionality is seriously limited and hurting the community.

@ma-abdellaoui you are doing God's work your endeavor is magnificent, the downfall of paperswithcode.com would otherwise be the dawn of an era of scientific obscurantism where we can no longer find nor compare the up to date state of the art on any benchmark.

I also don't know how to use the site's search function!

We also built the website using the original data from paperwithcode, http://scholarwiki.ai/, and further supplemented the data later. We will open source the data and the entire website's code in the future. We hope everyone can work together to improve the product.

Our product supports fast search, http://scholarwiki.ai/.

@linxid , If you were actually of the philosophy of the democratization of these works, one would think that, instead of doing the typical "ours is better, f*** this other dude / dudette" spamming / thunder-stealing--such behavior is illustrative of the very essence of the reason paperswithcode was disappeared in the first place--that you'd maybe privately reach out and see if there's anything either of you could offer to one another in service of your supposed end-game, and capitalize on the fact that both of you have the same hair up your asses.
THAT would be helpful, just sayin'.

Any new alternatives? None of these options are working anymore...

@mikel-brostrom let me know, if u find something.

I created researchlit, it uses search to match academic paper titles to github repositories.

Check wizwand.com . We are one of the very few actively maintained PwC alternatives with the latest papers indexed.

Also my shot at providing value - https://www.codesota.com
I also do editorial for things like OCR and speech TTS models https://www.codesota.com/ocr
