Abstract

The current study provides an integrated bibliometric view of China’s presence in the field of artificial intelligence. China has already become a leading nation in the artificial intelligence research field in terms of the number of publications and the most influential papers. However, the mean citation impact of Chinese artificial intelligence publications still need improvement. The rather concentrated distribution of institutions and journals of Chinese publications deserves much attention. Hong Kong’s institutions are apparently the biggest contributor to Chinese AI publications, and have an extremely leading position. Other Chinese institutions in the mainland China are lack of competence to some extent. A thoroughly comparative analysis is conducted among China and several other “giant” countries in the same field.
