I am working with a bunch of fellows to make scalable teaching/training tools. Most of it will be open source, some will be free to access (since we have to use platforms like youtube).

The current project in that direction is a timeline-maker targeting research labs. Imagine joining a research lab (for MS/PhD) and getting a timeline of key papers in their field. This will set a baseline for "literature survey". Some of my professors from my college have already shown interest.

It is nothing fancy though. A python script that take YAML input and produce an HTML output. Now producing that YAML input with all the data from 100+ papers is the tedious task. I am currently doing it for my field - speech recognition.
