Keywords:
Influence maximization,Scientometric analysis,information dissemination,community detection,Heuristic methods.Abstract
Recent decades have witnessed a surge in research on influence maximization, yet rigorous investigation in this area remains limited. This study, analyzing Scopus-indexed publications from 2005 to 2024, reveals a growing research output, with China, the United States, Australia,and Singapore as key contributors. Chinese researchers dominate influential authors, with collaborations prominent between these nations and countries like the United States and India.Chen emerges as the most influential author. "Social networking" is a significant and emerging area of study, emphasizing the importance of understanding information diffusion and identifying key players within networks. This research aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the available literature on influence maximization for researchers in the field.
