Abstract
In recent years, with the rapid development of digital technology, digitization has become one of the main ways to protect and disseminate intangible cultural heritage (ICH). In this study, 298 papers in the Web of Science (WoS)database and 240 papers in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)database from January 2004 to December 2021 were used as samples to compare and analyze the research on digitization of ICH in China and abroad. By analyzing and visualizing the information of publication time, discipline distribution, country distribution, authors, institutions, and keywords, the results revealed that: (1) Most international research focuses on scientific and technical disciplines, and computer disciplines occupy an important position in the research of ICH digitization. Chinese research, for the most part, focuses on humanities disciplines, and the proportion of computer disciplines is lower than international levels. (2) In recent years, international research involves emerging disciplines such as green sustainable science technology, environmental sciences, environmental studies, remote sensing, and materials science multidisciplinary, but Chinese research has not yet covered the above-mentioned fields. China should strengthen the cross-fertilization between different disciplines, encourage more engineering disciplines to participate in research, and focus on the research and application of emerging technologies. (3) Whether in China or abroad, there is no stable core author group in the field of in the field of ICH digitization. There are few collaborations among authors. (4) In the future, China should stimulate the communication vitality of various research subjects, build an open and integrated innovation ecology, and jointly promote the construction of a collaborative research network for digitization of ICH.
