Abstract
This paper presents a current overview of the main productive and influential countries around the world in the computer science field. Research in the computer science field has experienced significant growth in recent years. This study develops a bibliometric overview of all journals that have been indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database over the past 25 years (1995–2019), according to several bibliometric indicators in the seven categories of computer science research. The study shows that United States is the leading country in the computer science field. Other countries, such as the United Kingdom, China, Canada and Germany, also obtain high positions in the ranking. The average country that performs research in computer science is European, has English-speaking researchers, is highly developed and has a high income. However, there is a wide range of countries that perform research in computer science, including South American and Arabic countries, meaning that computer science traverses many countries and cultures.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.
Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
