This paper analyzes 80,814 papers from five top AI conferences (2017-2025) to show that major AI topics advance through abrupt 'topical phase transitions' rather than gradual growth. It proposes an early-warning signature for detecting such transitions and flags reasoning, agentic AI, and multimodal LLMs as topics to monitor through 2028.
This paper evaluates whether bibliometric structure improves LLM-assisted scientific literature synthesis by comparing six pipelines for generating cluster descriptions. Results show LLMs perform best in a hybrid workflow where bibliometric algorithms define clusters and LLMs generate readable descriptions.
