Found a paper that's exactly what you need? Similar helps you find more like it. 🐰 It shows you papers that often appear in the same reference lists as the one you're looking at, so they're likely to cover the same topic, even if they don't cite each other.

Common questions
What happened to "Similar Work"?
In the new version of ResearchRabbit, Similar Work is now the Similar button, which you'll find on every paper.
How is Similar different from citations and references?
Citations and references follow the direct links between papers: who cites whom. Similar finds papers that other researchers tend to cite alongside this one, so it can surface related work that isn't directly linked. See How to see a paper's citations.
