In 2023, the total number of scientific publications in Computer Graphics and Computer-Aided Design in Canada was notably higher than forecasted figures for upcoming years. From 2024 onwards, there's a consistent decline in publication numbers, dropping from 147.4 in 2024 to 141.93 by 2028. The year-on-year decrease averages between 0.9% and 1.0%. This indicates a gradual reduction in research activity within this domain over the next five years with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting a steady downturn.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential shifts in research funding priorities which could impact publication volumes.
- Emerging technologies or interdisciplinary collaboration may reverse the declining trend by revitalizing interest in these fields.
