Oignon: Citation Graph Tool
Abstract
Citation graph visualisation is a useful tool for contextual awareness in academic research. Unfortunately, existing solutions can suffer from several drawbacks, such as a poor scaling, shallow network traversal, freemium gating, and slow build times. Oignon is a free, open-source tool for systematically exploring academic research. It uses a dual-path ranking system with recency weighting to create graphs capturing both foundational works and recent breakthroughs related to a specific publication.
