ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, Communications, and Applications (TOMM) has been dedicated to advancing multimedia research, fostering discoveries, innovations, and practical applications since 2005. The journal consistently publishes top-notch, original research in emerging fields through open submissions, calls for papers, special issues, rigorous review processes, and diverse research topics. This study aims to delve into an extensive bibliometric analysis of the journal, utilising various bibliometric indicators. The paper seeks to unveil the latent implications within the journal’s scholarly landscape from 2005 to 2022. The data primarily draws from the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection database. The analysis encompasses diverse viewpoints, including yearly publication rates and citations, identifying highly cited papers, and assessing the most prolific authors, institutions, and countries. The paper employs VOSviewer-generated graphical maps, effectively illustrating networks of co-citations, keyword co-occurrences, and institutional and national bibliographic couplings. Furthermore, the study conducts a comprehensive global and temporal examination of co-occurrences of the author’s keywords. This investigation reveals the emergence of numerous novel keywords over the past decades.
