nice abstraction for listening to abstracts! would really like a "curated playlist" option. The ability to filter based on "Topics" is a step in that direction and a further vetting down of options will make the app more usable. nitpick: the TTS ends up pronouncing the markup as well. maybe the abstract can be cleaned before being passed through the TTS-generator. eg. for the line: "This paper concerns designing distributed algorithms that are {\em singularly optimal}" the "em" ends up on the audio and is confusing.
refer: https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.02197 (also, ability to permalink to the paper on the papertime.app will help.) |

The TTS cleanup ought to become one of my top priorities. I’ve heard a lot of $k$ (dollar k dollar) is etc. I’m guessing it’s LaTeX markup bleeding over into the abstract text rendering somehow.
I am not able to figure out how to curate a list, since I’m just processing Arxiv papers as they come in! One option is to provide papers accepted at conferences.
Another is to let people upvote, but I fear voting dynamics can get messy. Also, without sufficient users, voting isn’t of much use.
I’ll see how I can implement permalinks. I’m not too familiar with doing that in single page apps so I need to work on it. Related question: would you like to be able to star/bookmark papers so that you can come back to them?
