CiteRadar: A Citation Intelligence Platform for Researcher Profiling and Geographic Visualization

Understanding the geographic reach and community structure of one's scholarly citations is increasingly valuable for career development, grant applications, and collaboration discovery -- yet accessible tools for answering these questions remain scarce. Existing bibliometric platforms either require costly institutional subscriptions or expose only aggregate citation counts without granular per-author metadata. We present CiteRadar, an open-source system that accepts a single Google Scholar user identifier and automatically produces a structured output folder containing: the author's complete publication list, all retrieved citing papers with enriched author metadata, two ranked author tables (by citation frequency and by h-index), a plain-text statistical summary, and a self-contained interactive HTML world map -- all from a single command-line invocation. CiteRadar integrates five heterogeneous data sources -- Google Scholar, OpenAlex, CrossRef, Semantic Scholar, and OpenStreetMap Nominatim -- through a carefully engineered five-stage pipeline. Key technical contributions include: (1) a Scholar meta-string parser resilient to Unicode non-breaking-space separators, a pervasive but undocumented quirk in Scholar's HTML that silently corrupts venue and year fields when unhandled; (2) a two-stage author disambiguation system using stop-word-filtered institution name similarity to guard against the well-known same-name entity-merging failure mode in bibliometric databases, demonstrated to eliminate h-index attribution errors of up to 9x the correct value; (3) an OpenAlex web-URL to API-URL conversion fix that raises the fraction of author records with city-level location data from 0% to ~60%; and (4) a logarithmically-scaled interactive Folium world map with per-city researcher popups, rendered as a fully self-contained HTML file.

RTLocating: Intent-aware RTL Localization for Hardware Design Iteration

Industrial chip development is inherently iterative, favoring localized, intent-driven updates over rewriting RTL from scratch. Yet most LLM-Aided Hardware Design (LAD) work focuses on one-shot synthesis, leaving this workflow underexplored. To bridge this gap, we for the first time formalize $Δ$Spec-to-RTL localization, a multi-positive problem mapping natural language change requests ($Δ$Spec) to the affected Register Transfer Level (RTL) syntactic blocks. We propose RTLocating, an intent-aware RTL localization framework, featuring a dynamic router that adaptively fuses complementary views from a textual semantic encoder, a local structural encoder, and a global interaction and dependency encoder (GLIDE). To enable scalable supervision, we introduce EvoRTL-Bench, the first industrial-scale benchmark for intent-code alignment derived from OpenTitan's Git history, comprising 1,905 validated requests and 13,583 $Δ$Spec-RTL block pairs. On EvoRTL-Bench, RTLocating achieves 0.568 MRR and 15.08% R@1, outperforming the strongest baseline by +22.9% and +67.0%, respectively, establishing a new state-of-the-art for intent-driven localization in evolving hardware designs.
