The Analysis of Research Hot Spot and Trend on Artificial Intelligence in Education

摘要

In this work, a total of 871 papers that were published between 1999 and 2018were retrieved from the Web of ScienceTM (WOSTM) platform. The descriptive analysis considered the publication volume, and countries. A global network of authors’ keywords and content analysis of related scientific literature highlighted major techniques, including Virtual Reality (VR), Robotic, Machine learning, Artificial neural network, Artificial intelligence (AI), Natural language processing (NLP), most frequent applications in learning, teaching, and managing. AI technology applications in the field of education are summarized, mainly concentrated in self-adaptive learning, intelligent tutoring system and intelligent evaluation.
