How does it work?

PhDs “autoreferats” Shorter version Not indexed Indexed by search engines

  • 1. Split the text of “autoreferats” into many short phrases.
  • 2. Send quests one by one to a search engine
  • 3. Collect statistics of the search engine responses
  • 4. Analyze the obtained statistical data
