- 经典算法在网络中居核心位置,影响力随时间增强
- 适合关注算法发展脉络与科研趋势的学者
在人工智能时代,算法已成为科学研究的核心。现有研究多孤立评估算法影响力,忽视其相互关联形成的集体影响。本研究基于自然语言处理领域论文全文,构建大规模算法共现网络,利用深度学习模型提取算法实体,建立整体、累积及年度共现网络。分析其结构特征并采用多种中心性度量评估算法在整个领域及时间维度上的群体影响力。结果表明,算法网络具有复杂网络典型特征,近二十年来连接日益紧密。经典高性能算法及处于不同时期交汇点的算法通常具有高流行度、控制力、中心性与均衡影响力。当算法影响力下降时,往往先失去核心网络地位,随后与其他算法的关联减弱。这是首个大规模算法共现网络分析,覆盖四十余年学术出版物,提供了算法影响力的时空结构视角,为未来算法-学者-任务网络研究奠定基础。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Algorithms have become central to scientific research in the era of artificial intelligence (AI). Although algorithm mentions in papers are often used to indicate popularity and influence, existing studies usually evaluate individual algorithms in isolation and pay limited attention to the collective influence formed through their interconnections. This study constructs large-scale algorithm co-occurrence networks in natural language processing (NLP) based on the full text of academic papers and investigates algorithm influence from a network perspective. Using deep learning models, we extract algorithm entities and build overall, cumulative, and annual co-occurrence networks. We analyze their structural characteristics and apply multiple centrality measures to assess the group influence of algorithms across the whole field and over time. The results show that algorithm networks display typical features of complex networks, with increasingly dense connections developing over approximately two decades. Classic, high-performing algorithms and those located at the intersections of different research periods tend to have high popularity, control, centrality, and balanced influence. When the influence of an algorithm declines, it usually loses its core network position first, followed by weaker associations with other algorithms. This study is the first large-scale analysis of algorithm co-occurrence networks. Covering more than four decades of academic publications, it provides a temporal and structural view of algorithm influence and offers a foundation for future research on networks linking algorithms, scholars, and tasks.
