The United States maintains the lead in top-cited publications in Human-Computer Interaction with a forecasted decrease of 0.092% from 2023. China shows significant growth with a 15.14% YoY increase, reflecting its expanding research capacity. Germany, the United Kingdom, and South Korea are seeing modest but stable growth between 0.84% and 8.73% YoY. Emerging countries like Vietnam and Egypt exhibit rapid growth exceeding 10%, while the UAE leads with a staggering 36.25% increase. Meanwhile, Switzerland and Singapore display slight declines.
Future trends to watch include China potentially closing the gap with the United States if its growth trend continues. South Africa and emerging economies such as Colombia and Egypt will likely increase their research impact, driven by substantive YoY gains. Notably, the focus on encouraging scientific contributions from these regions could reshape global HCI research dynamics in the long term.
