Abstract
This article aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of robot collaborative service from 2011 to 2021 based on VOS viewer. 5141 articles have 162,358 cited references were analyzed. Publication source, publication organization, authors, country and citation of articles were recorded and analyzed. Bibliometric maps of authorship, citation, co-citation and network of co-occurrence of keywords are drawn. The China and USA dominates the publications (1279,24.87% or 895, 16.71%) and citations (15960 times or 22017 times). Chinese Academy of Science is the most productive organization. Bu jiajun is the most productive author. The top 5 highly cited journals are “Intelligent Service Robotics”, “IEEE Access”, “Sensors”, “International Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems”, “Robotics and Computer-integrated Manufacturing”. The 215 minimum number of occurrences of a keyword was set 35, of the 18681 keywords, 97 keywords were divided into four clusters. Cluster 1 mainly about design of robot. Cluster 2 mainly design about task of robot collaborative service. Cluster 3 mainly technology of robot collaborative service. Cluster 4 mainly about fields of application of robot collaborative service. The latest keyword analysis shows that “task”, “robot sensing system”, “robot kinematics”, “deep learning” and “manipulators” have burst end time of 2021.
