Gender-specific patterns in the artificial intelligence scientific ecosystem

作者：

Highlights：

• Gender disparity in science is one of the most focused debating points among authorities and the scientific community.

• Despite the ongoing efforts, gender gaps persist across the world, and more measures need to be taken.

• Using advanced techniques, we comprehensively analyzed gender-specific patterns in the highly interdisciplinary and evolving field of artificial intelligence.

• Our findings suggest an overall increasing rate of mixed-gender collaborations.

• We found evidence in support of expecting the rise of new female superstar researchers in the artificial intelligence field.
