Seventeen Years of the ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, Communications and Applications: A Bibliometric Overview
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, Communications, and Applications 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 articles, 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 article 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 Core Collection database. The analysis encompasses diverse viewpoints, including yearly publication rates and citations, identifying highly cited articles, and assessing the most prolific authors, institutions, and countries. The article 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.
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.
How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
