Manually curated university directories easily become out of date and often lack the information necessary to understand a researcher’s interests and past work, making it harder to explore the diversity of research at an institution and pinpoint potential collaborators. PeopleMap solves these problems! To generate a PeopleMap, you only need to provide the researchers’ Google Scholar profile URLs.\n\n\u003ca href=\"https://poloclub.github.io/people-map/ideas/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"PeopleMap.png\" style=\"max-width:100%;\"\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\n                                             \n**Video**: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfKOoR4H1PE                                                                       \n**Documentation**: https://poloclub.gitbook.io/people-map/                                                                             \n\n\n\n[**Mapping Researchers with PeopleMap**](https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.00091)                                                   \nJon Saad-Falcon, Omar Shaikh, Jay Wang, Austin Wright, Sasha Richardson, and Polo Chau                                                       \n*2020 IEEE Visualization (VIS'20) 🏆 Best Poster, Honorable Mention*\n\n[**PeopleMap: Visualization Tool for Mapping Out Researchers using Natural Language Processing**](https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.06105)                                         \nJon Saad-Falcon, Omar Shaikh, Jay Wang, Austin Wright, Sasha Richardson, and Polo Chau                                                    \narXiv Preprint                                                                                                                  \n\n\u003cbr/\u003e\n\n\n# Live Demo\nClick the following links to access two live demos:\n\nhttps://poloclub.github.io/people-map/ideas/\n\nhttps://poloclub.github.io/people-map/ml/\n\nWe have tested PeopleMap on Google Chrome, Firefox, Safari.
