Instruct: Identify the main and secondary category of Arxiv papers based on the titles and abstracts
Query: Citation Count Analysis for Papers with Preprints   We explore the degree to which papers prepublished on arXiv garner more
citations, in an attempt to paint a sharper picture of fairness issues related
to prepublishing. A paper's citation count is estimated using a
negative-binomial generalized linear model (GLM) while observing a binary
variable which indicates whether the paper has been prepublished. We control
for author influence (via the authors' h-index at the time of paper writing),
publication venue, and overall time that paper has been available on arXiv. Our
analysis only includes papers that were eventually accepted for publication at
top-tier CS conferences, and were posted on arXiv either before or after the
acceptance notification. We observe that papers submitted to arXiv before
acceptance have, on average, 65\% more citations in the following year compared
to papers submitted after. We note that this finding is not causal, and discuss
possible next steps.
