Journal of Machine Learning Research (JMLR)
jmlr.org
Long-running open-access machine learning journal. Every paper is a free PDF with no paywall, making it easy to build ML literature notebooks.
JMLR was set up partly so machine learning research wouldn't sit behind commercial journal paywalls, and every paper it has ever published is still free, which makes it a clean base for a notebook wanting full-text ML papers with no gaps from access restrictions. Its editorial board draws from senior ML researchers, so inclusion carries real weight. It leans toward methods and theory papers, so a notebook on applied or systems-heavy ML work may need to pull from conference proceedings like NeurIPS or ICML as well.
Import into Gemini Notebook
- 1Copy the link above (or a specific page from the site).
- 2In your notebook, click Add source → Website.
- 3Paste the link and confirm — several links can be pasted at once, one per line.
Conference proceedings and lab blogs publish full papers as PDFs or Website pages — those import cleanly and keep citations intact.
More ai & technology research sources
- AAAI Conference on Artificial IntelligenceProceedings of a major annual AI conference covering the whole field. Individual paper PDFs from the proceedings work well as sources.
- ACM Digital LibraryPublisher library for computing research — conference proceedings and journals. Many papers are open access, and those PDFs import directly.
- AI Alignment ForumLong-form technical posts on AI safety and alignment research. Individual post URLs work well as Website sources.
- DistillInteractive, peer-reviewed explainers of machine learning concepts. Dormant since 2021, but the articles import well as Website sources for ML study notebooks.
- Google DeepMind ResearchPublications and technical blog posts from Google DeepMind. Blog write-ups often summarize a paper more digestibly than the PDF — add both as sources.
- ICLR (OpenReview)ICLR papers with their full peer-review threads on OpenReview. Reviews and author rebuttals add useful critical context alongside the paper PDF.
- IEEE XploreJournals, conference proceedings, and standards in electrical engineering and computing. Abstracts are open; full PDFs need a subscription or purchase.
- Linguistic Data ConsortiumDistributes speech and text corpora for language research and model training. Access is membership-based; corpus documentation pages are freely viewable.
- MLCommons / MLPerf BenchmarksHome of the MLPerf benchmarks for training and inference speed. Results pages and methodology docs anchor notebooks comparing AI hardware and systems.
- Nature Machine IntelligencePeer-reviewed journal on machine learning and AI applications. A curated counterweight to preprints when building an AI literature notebook.
- NeurIPS ProceedingsEvery paper from the top machine learning conference, back to 1987. Free PDFs make it easy to build a notebook around a research thread across years.
- OpenMLShared machine learning datasets and benchmark task results with API access. Dataset description pages document provenance for reproducibility notebooks.
- OpenReview.netPapers plus their full peer-review threads for venues like ICLR. Importing reviews alongside the paper gives a notebook both sides of the argument.
- PerplexityAnswer engine that links every claim to a source. Handy for finding candidate URLs to add to a notebook — import the cited pages, not the AI summary itself.
- Proceedings of Machine Learning Research (PMLR)Free full-text papers from ICML, AISTATS, UAI and other ML venues. Direct PDF links with no paywall — easy bulk imports for ML literature reviews.
- The GradientLong-form essays on AI research written for a technical but general audience. Articles pair well with the papers they discuss in the same notebook.
- Transactions on Machine Learning Research (TMLR)Open-access ML journal with rolling submissions and public reviews. Each paper has a landing page plus a PDF you can pull straight into a notebook.
