Artificial intelligence has developed rapidly in the past ten years, and it has gradually moved from academic research to commercialization. However, the main achievements in this field will still be published in top international journals and conferences (ie, top journals and top conferences ).
Top conference top journals usually refer to "CCF Recommended International Academic Journals and Conference Catalog" and ACM computer science classification system related sub-fields A journals and conferences, in addition, there are recommendations from relevant experts and groups.
In the field of artificial intelligence, in addition to the most well-known and core four top conferences AAAI , IJCAI , ICML and NeurIPS , as well as the two academic conferences CVPR and ACL as representatives of computer vision and natural language , many "rising stars" have emerged "For example, ICLR , known as the "Uncrowned King" of the deep learning conference, which was founded only six years ago, and EMNLP , the top conference in the field of natural language processing, which was founded in 1996 and has the potential to catch up with ACL , these "Rising Star Conferences" The rise of AI has made the conference in the field of AI present a bright spot and multi-faceted situation.
CCF Recommended Catalog of International Academic Journals
In 2019, the China Computer Federation (CCF) recently completed the approval of the fifth edition of the Catalog of International Academic Conferences and Journals Recommended by the China Computer Federation . The international computer journals and conferences are divided into 10 fields, and three categories of journals and conferences, A, B, and C, are selected for each field, which is what everyone calls CCF-A and CCF-B.
- Computer Architecture / Parallel and Distributed Computing / Storage Systems
- computer network
- Network and Information Security
- Software Engineering/System Software/Programming Languages
- Database/Data Mining/Content Retrieval
- computer science theory
- Computer Graphics and Multimedia
- artificial intelligence
- Human-Computer Interaction and Ubiquitous Computing
- Crossover/Comprehensive/Emerging
For Chinese publications, in May 2021, CCF updated the " Classified Catalog of High-Quality Scientific and Technological Journals in the Computing Field ". CCF's classification of Chinese publications is relatively simple, divided into three categories: T1, T2, and T3. T1 is the top journal, T2 is very excellent journal, and T3 is excellent journal. Among them, there are 16 T1 periodicals, 23 T2 periodicals, and 29 T3 periodicals; the fields are not distinguished.
AMiner scientific research big data platform
In order to facilitate the understanding and tracking of the development trend of the top conferences/journals in the AI field, the AMiner platform, a big data mining and service system for scientific and technological information, can be used to deeply explore the data of conferences/journals in the past five years. H5-index , citation median (cit_med), 10H value (the sum of the citations of the 10 most cited papers), annual average number of articles (avg_pub) and other indicators of the journal, and the journal also considers the impact factor (IF ), eigenfactor (EF) and 2 additional indicators, combined with CCF grades for index correlation analysis, statistics and rankings were carried out based on the H5 index of these conferences/journals, and finally the conference TOP40 list and journal TOP60 list were selected .
AI field conference TOP40 list
Judging from the conference rankings, CVPR, the top computer vision conference , topped the list with an H5 index of 235 and a 10H value of 78158. NIPS , the top conference in the field of machine learning , ranks second with an H5 index of 149. The third place is also the top conference in the field of machine learning, ICML , with an H5 index of 128. Ranked fourth and fifth are ECCV and ICCV respectively . The three top conferences in the field of computer vision are all on the list, which shows the popularity and enthusiasm of this research direction.
Natural language processing is another research field that has attracted much attention besides computer vision. ACL and EMNLP , as the two top conferences that have made great contributions to the field of natural language processing, rank sixth and eighth respectively.
As a comprehensive top conference in the field of artificial intelligence, AAAI ranks seventh with an H5 index of 89. ICRA , the top international conference in the field of robotics , ranks ninth, with an H5 index of 81. The conference is sponsored by the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society. From the perspective of the acceptance rate of papers, ICRA is still relatively high compared to other academic conferences, with an average of 40.9%.
IJCAI (International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence), the first international academic conference in the field of AI , has an H5 index of 60, ranking 10th. As a veteran conference in the field of artificial intelligence, the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI) has a history of 50 years. It is considered to be the most important and one of the top academic conferences in the field of artificial intelligence. Many pioneers in the field of artificial intelligence have attended this conference. Awarded and published excellent papers. At present, it has been downgraded from CCF's A category to B category in the list of computer science recommended journal conferences in Tsinghua University. For complaints about Tsinghua's recommendation list, you can refer to this article .
AI field journal TOP60 ranking
It can be seen from the list of journals that TPAMI has the most outstanding performance in journals in the field of AI , both in terms of quantity and quality , with an H5 index of 125, ranking first on the list. Ranked second is IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics , with an H5 index of 98. Ranked third is TNNLS , which belongs to category B journals among CCF-recommended journals, with an H5 index of 94.
Best Paper
Top journals and conferences in the field of artificial intelligence will select the most innovative and valuable research papers as the best research papers among numerous academic research papers through "double-blind review" every year, and award the "Best Paper" award . The best paper awards of the annual conference are generally divided into two categories, one is the best research paper (Research track), and the other is the best applied paper (Applied track). Some conferences select multiple best papers each year (ranked first, second, and third), while some top conferences select only one best paper every few years.
Judging from the experience of the past ten years, the best research papers of the top international conferences over the years will have a groundbreaking impact on subsequent research in many fields. Therefore, no matter from the perspective of reading classic literature or learning the latest research results, analyzing and discussing the best research papers each year is of great value.
The Best Paper Awards in Computer Science website collects the best paper awards from 30 computer science conferences since 1996.
Highest Impact Paper
The number of citations of papers is a measure of the industry's recognition of a scientific research document, and it is also an
important manifestation of the influence of the document. "AMiner Artificial Intelligence Development Report 2020" analyzes the citation characteristics and fields of the papers published in the top journals of the International Conference on Artificial Intelligence during the period 2011-2020. The analysis of the results shows that the paper with the highest citations in a certain academic conference is not necessarily the paper awarded the best paper award by the conference, and vice versa.
The analysis also found that the magnitude of the highest citations of papers in different subfields of artificial intelligence spans a wide range. During the period from 2011 to 2020, the top ten papers with the highest citations in the top journals of the International Conference on Artificial Intelligence are led by the field of machine learning, followed by research papers in the field of computer vision. The citations of papers in the fields of machine learning and computer vision have reached more than 250,000 times (data as of 2020), which is significantly higher than the citations of the most highly cited papers in other subfields.
Among them, the most influential paper in the field of computer vision is the "Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition ( ResNet )" article on CVPR in 2016, with Facebook AI Research He Yuming as the first author , and its citations have exceeded 60,000 . The most cited paper in the field of machine learning is " Adam : A Method for Stochastic Optimization" published at the 2015 ICLR conference , which was jointly published by Diederik P., Kingma of Google Brain and Jimmy Lei Ba, an assistant professor at the University of Toronto Published, the current citations are nearly 60,000 .
In the field of machine learning , the citation rates of the top 10 influential papers all exceed 10,000 times, and more than half of the papers have a citation rate of more than 20,000 times. From the perspective of research topics, the 10 most influential papers are all related to deep learning. From the source of papers, among the 10 most influential papers, 5 are from NeurIPS, 3 are from ICLR, and 2 are from ICML.
The first place is the " Adam : A Method for Stochastic Optimization" paper jointly published by Diederik P., Kingma of Google Brain and Assistant Professor Jimmy Lei Ba of the University of Toronto at the 2015 ICLR conference. The second most influential is a paper "Generative Adversarial Nets" published by Apple researcher Ian J. Goodfellow on NeurIPS 2014, which is also the pioneering work of GANs . The third most influential paper is "Distributed Representations of Words and Phrases and their Compositionality ( Word2vec )" published by Facebook scientist Tomas Mikolov on NeurIPS 2013.
The top ten most influential papers in the field of computer vision . Among them, the most cited paper is the "Deep Residual Learning for Image Recognition" article published on CVPR in 2016, with Facebook AI Research He Yuming as the first author, and its citations have exceeded 60,000. This paper also won the CVPR Best Paper award that year. The co-authors also include Zhang Xiangyu, a researcher at Megvii Technology, Sun Jian, the chief scientist and dean of the research institute, and Ren Shaoqing, who worked at Momenta at the time. This article is a very classic neural network paper. It mainly solves the problem that the effect of the deeper network is not as good as that of the shallower network when the number of network layers is too high by constructing a new network structure, and makes Properly explained and solved with ResNet residual network.
The top ten most influential papers in the field of natural language processing in the past ten years. Among them, the most cited paper is the paper " Glove : Global Vectors for Word Representation" published by Google researcher Jeffrey Pennington at the 2014 EMNLP conference . The word representation model proposed in this paper is trained only by non- Zero elements, rather than entire sparse matrices or individual context windows in large corpora, to efficiently utilize statistics. The model produces a vector space with meaningful substructure, outperforming related models on similarity tasks and named entity recognition.

Computer Field Awards
The ACM AM Turing Award is the most prestigious and noble award in the computer industry, known as the "Nobel Prize in the computer industry". The Turing Award is an award established by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) in 1966 to reward individuals who have made important contributions to the cause of computing. Its name is taken from Alan Turing (AM Turing), a pioneer of computer science in the world, a British scientist, and a professor at the University of Manchester. The annual Turing Award winners are generally officially awarded by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) in late March of the following year
Turing Award winners must have made lasting and significant technological contributions in the computer field, and most of the winners are computer scientists. The first Turing Laureate was Alan Perlis of Carnegie Mellon University (1966), and the first female Laureate was Frances E. Allen of IBM (2006).
In 2018, Yoshua Bengio , Geoffrey Hinton and Yann LeCun , the three great masters in the field of deep learning, won the Turing Award for their major breakthroughs in concepts and engineering that promoted deep neural networks to become a key technology in the computer field. Hinton's backpropagation (BP) algorithm, LeCun's promotion of convolutional neural network (CNN), and Bengio's contribution to cyclic neural network (RNN) are the basis for the leapfrog development of image recognition, speech recognition, and natural language processing. .
