[Blindmath] LaTeX to MathML (Dzhovani)

[Kyle Keane]

As an exercise I spent a few hours today seeing if I could deploy a quick and dirty web app that would grab the equations from an arxiv article and return them in an HTML document as MathML. 
I think I had some success, although it certainly needs some refinement. 
You can test the app at 
https://www.wolframcloud.com/objects/10f82ee8-946b-401b-8997-1906b87da404 

You will need the arxiv identifier for the article, which has the form ####.#####. 
If you need a version of an article other than v1, you should enter that as a number in the second input field in the app. 

The h1 of the resulting HTML will tell you if equations were imported successfully. 
If the importer is successful it will spit out a web page with a bunch of h2's with the label of the equation. 
Inside the h2 will be the actual MathML of the equation. 

You can save the resulting file as HTML for later use. 
If you can read through your article somewhere else and find the label for an equation, then you can search for the MathML over here. 

I realize, that you want a full importer, but this is what I could make in a few hours. 

The source code for deploying this web app is available on GitHub and available for the community under the MIT License at

Hope this helps in some way,
