Hot authors and topics in quant-ph in 2016 and how to generate a sexy abstract

SciRate gives instant gratification for our precious preprints on arXiv. We analyse the metadata of the papers that appeared in quant-ph in 2016 to find out the hottest authors and topics, and we train a recurrent neural network to generate fake abstracts.

Reflective random indexing on short documents with fixed vocabulary

Reflective random indexing can lead to strange results: if the vocabulary is small compared to the number of documents, term vectors will show little variety.
