How Does RecRec Work?

RecRec uses Semantic Scholar's citation database to analyze and identify all researchers who have cited your papers. In addition, it uses the Academic Award database to highlight researchers with awards, such as ACM Fellow and IEEE Fellow. Finally, RecRec provides an easy-to-use interface to help you quickly sort, filter, and select potential recommenders.

To find potential recommendation letter writers, follow these three steps:

Step 1 Type your name to identify your semantic scholar profile
Step 2 Select your most representative papers
Step 3 Browse and filter potential letter writers
Optional Repeat Steps 2 and 3 if needed
