Application of artificial intelligence methods in solving information security problems: effectiveness and relevance of research results of Russian scientists
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of research results of Russian scientists and specialists in 2013-2019 in the field of artificial intelligence methods in solving information security problems. The analysis was carried out on the basis of RSCI databases (Russian science citation index), taking into account a number of scientometric indicators: the publication activity of researchers - the annual number of their publications based on research results, as well as the citation of these publications and the demand for the results of work. The author identify the dynamics of the formation of indicators of publication activity: there is a continuous increase in the number of publications in this field of knowledge throughout the analyzed period up to 2019 inclusive. At the same time, the growth in their number in 2019 exceeded the figures of 2013 by more than six times. This fact indicates the explosive growing interest of Russian researchers in the analyzed area of knowledge (even in the 2014 crisis). It is noted that the citation index, despite its minimum value in 2015, reaches its maximum in 2017, exceeded the value in 2013 more than twofold. The most popular research results are highlighted in 2017. The minimum demand was observed in 2015 (this indicator may have been affected by the 2014 crisis). At the same time, the maximum of 2017 was 20% higher than the value of 2013 and more than twice the minimum value of demand for 2015. Small indicators of demand for research results in 2019 are obviously due to the same reason as for low citation indicators this year: the slow "response" of the scientific community to the current year's publications. The directions of research in the field of information security, the results of which were distinguished by their high demand, were determined. The article provides illustrations reflecting the results of the study.
