Abstract
Mobile Internet-based intelligent media has become a popular academic topic. This study uses the CiteSpace visualisation tool and Scientific Citation Index Expanded database to comb the existing research in the field of intelligent media from a quantitative perspective. A total of 7248 English papers were published on the topic of “intelligent media” from 2012 to 2021, and 145 highly cited papers refined were analysed. Scientific knowledge graphs were analysed from six dimensions: annual publication quantity, country of publication, institution of publication, author, keywords, and cited references. In the last 10 years, the research literature on intelligent media has been found to increase annually. Presently, the People’s Republic of China and the United States of America have a high proportion of documents in this field. Chinese universities and institutions have achieved significantly in terms of the quantity and quality of documents. From the perspective of the whole intelligent media discipline, the high-yield author group has not been formed, and there is minimal cooperation amongst authors. Popular intelligent media topics include film, social media, machine learning, swarming motility, data mining, and artificial intelligence. Subject words of the main research directions are event recognition, fake news, Cable News Network model, reconfigurable intelligent surface, comprehensive survey, microblog message, strain sensor, and traffic event. Combined with popular topics and time zone maps, the future research frontier in the field of smart media is identified.
Highlights
The development of mobile communication, artificial intelligence, intelligent terminal technology, and social media has resulted in some technologies penetrating the media industry, such as Internet of things (IoT), cloud computing, virtual augmented reality, intelligent hardware, and big data
Keyword symbiosis network, and keyword clustering analyses, this study reveals the main forces, evolution process, research hotspots, and theme categories of intelligent media research in the recent 10 years
This research conducted a bibliometric analysis of Scientific Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) retrieved journals from 2012 to 2021 and provided beneficial insights into document types, distribution of countries, regions and institutions, geographical distribution of authors, co-author network, and content analysis
Summary
The development of mobile communication, artificial intelligence, intelligent terminal technology, and social media has resulted in some technologies penetrating the media industry, such as Internet of things (IoT), cloud computing, virtual augmented reality, intelligent hardware, and big data. The transformation of new media has led to the evolution and change of media forms, content production, distribution channels, user experience, and other fields. The media space dominated by people in the past has been substantially expanded, and intelligent media has gradually developed. The emergence of various media forms has resulted in intelligent media becoming an important development direction for media organisations to win against competitors. Changes in user behaviour have promoted the intelligent development of media. Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing of intelligent media has provided substantial convenience, it has brought numerous social problems. This study conducts the necessary examination and reflection on previous academic research
