A Bibliographic Analysis of the IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems Literature

This paper presents a bibliographic analysis of the papers published in the IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems (T-ITS). We identify the most productive and high-impact authors, institutions, and countries/regions. We find that research on intelligent transportation systems is dominated by U.S. researchers and institutions and that China and Japan are the second most productive countries. According to this analysis, M. M. Trivedi, N. P. Papanikolopoulos, and P. A. Ioannou are the three most productive and influential authors in the IEEE T-ITS, whereas the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, the University of California, San Diego, and the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, are three of the most productive and influential institutions in the IEEE T-ITS.
