Visualization Analysis of Research Progress on Artificial Intelligence Application in the Public Security Field Based on CiteSpace
(Graduate College, China People's Police University, Langfang 065000, China)
Abstract
Based on CiteSpace software, this paper conducts a visual analysis of relevant literature on the application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in public security from 2017 to 2025 in CNKI. The research finds that research in this field has evolved from preliminary exploration to in-depth integration, forming a research system with “AI” as the core, radiating clusters such as “smart policing” and “Big Data” and “smart investigation”. At present, research is growing explosively, but there are problems such as unbalanced regional development, insufficient research depth and fragmented cooperation networks. In the future, regional collaboration should be strengthened, research on human-machine collaboration and risk governance should be deepened, and the integration of “industry-university-research-application” should be promoted to realize the large-scale and standardized application of AI in actual public security operations.
