This seems like a cool idea, thanks for creating it!

Some feedback:

I tried searching for "wave function collapse algorithm", "gumin wave function collapse", "wfc" and "model synthesis" without any relevant hits to the area of research I was interested in. I got a lot of quantum computing and other physics related papers.

The "WFC algorithm" overloaded the term (and has nothing to do with quantum mechanics) so it's kind of a bad case for this type of search. Model synthesis is way too generic, so again, might be a bad case for this.

The first page of results using "wave function collapse algorithm" from arXiv itself gives relevant results.

Thank you for taking the time to try out the site!

arXiv has a keyword based search engine. It looks for words as is in the text. PaperMatch tries to find similar papers that are closer in meaning.

Here is an alternative approach: Take one paper that you like, copy the abstract from arXiv (or arXiv ID) and paste it in PaperMatch. This should help you find similar papers.

Very nice! Putting in an arXiv ID looks to produce many results that are much more relevant.

EDIT: You should provide this in an "information"/"about"/"how to use" dialogue or page to help people use the tool better.
