6. Find the topics

The review's topics

  1. Choose how many topics to group the papers into, and which papers, then press Find topics.
  2. How the topics relate draws the topics as a tree: two topics whose branches meet further left share more of their words, and branches of one colour form a group. Press a topic's name to see its papers in the list.
  3. Each topic is named by a phrase its papers use, and shows its most telling words and how many papers it holds; press one to see its papers in the list.

The grouping uses the words of each title and abstract, the same way every time. It reads at most 500 papers: where the set holds more, the 500 most cited are read, and the page says how many are left out. Choose a narrower set, such as included papers only, to decide which are read. Each topic analysis counts towards your plan's analyses for the day.
