The application of image recognition techniques in the realm cultural heritage represents a significant advancement preservation and analysis. However, existing scholarship on this topic has largely concentrated specific methodologies narrow categories, leaving notable gap broader understanding. This study aims to address deficiency through thorough bibliometric analysis Web Science (WoS) literature from 1995 2024, integrating both qualitative quantitative approaches elucidate macro-level evolution field. Our reveals that integration artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning, significantly enhanced digital documentation, artifact identification, overall management. Looking forward, it is imperative research endeavors expand these into multidisciplinary domains, including ecological monitoring social policy. Additionally, paper examines non-invasive identification methods for material classification damage detection, highlighting role advanced modeling optimizing management sites. emergence keywords such as ‘ecosystem services’, ‘models’, ‘energy’ recent underscores shift toward sustainable practices conservation. trend reflects growing interconnectedness between environmental sciences. heightened awareness crises has, turn, spurred development technologies tailored applications. Prospective field anticipated witness rapid advancements, real-time community engagement, leading creation more holistic tools

A growing body of epidemiologic research has examined the potential associations between contaminants in drinking water and various cancers, with a special emphasis on sources particular concern, including arsenic, asbestos, radon, agricultural chemicals, byproducts hazardous waste sites. Given public health implications, bibliometric analysis literature this field is warranted. This aims to systematically map progression relationship cancer. By identifying emerging trends knowledge gaps, can inform future directions prioritize areas greatest for impact. In study, we employed approach analyze We searched articles all languages published 1939 2023 using Scopus database. To ensure precision our search, validated search strategy relevant keywords related The data included indicators such as citation patterns, publication trends, identification most productive countries institutions field. Finally, used VOSviewer software (version 1.6.20) visualize through network co-occurrence analysis. visualization helped us identify key clusters topics within comprehensive database from yielded 11,703 focusing journal excluding errata retracted documents, set was refined 10,751 publications. majority (91.06%) these were original (n = 9790), while reviews accounted 6.49% 698). United States country that contributed field, contributing 3,268 (30.4%), followed by China 1496; 13.9%), Japan 1358; 12.6%), India 758; 7.1%). Recent (post-2015) focuses assessing carcinogenic pollutant risks, mainly groundwater. contrast, earlier studies often animal human models explore effects chemicals found water. study offers insight into current link Most high-income countries, highlighting need more low- middle-income regions. advance understanding develop effective strategies, further essential. includes improving methods detecting measuring contaminants, well evaluating impact treatment sanitation practices.
