Analysis of Russian Document Flow on the Topic “Artificial Intelligence” in the 21^st Century

Abstract

The topic of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly attracting attention. The purpose of the article is to present the results of a bibliometric analysis of the document flow on this topic. For the study, various scientometric data from the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI) for 2001–2023 are used. The analysis showed the following. In Russia the growth of document flow began in 2016. The most cited publications are both monographs and articles. The vast majority of names named in the ranking are young people who have published their first works in the year of getting into the rating or1-3 years before that, but the authors with the most citations are not those actively publishing. The authors, organizations and leading sources of information are named. The breadth of the topic AI indicates a transition from the general fundamentals and understanding of the topic to specific developments used in a certain field of activity, but the library aspect in AI is practically not developed. In recent years, there have been reports on AI that are reflected in collections of conference proceedings, but scientific articles can be found in the ranking for each year.
