Forensics and counterforensics

Steganography and steganalysis

Covert and subliminal channels

Watermarking and fingerprinting

Networks and protocols

Anonymity and privacy
Biometrics and deep fake analytics

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the use or advances of the following methods:

Information, coding, and complexity theory

Game and decision theory

Statistical modelling

Machine learning and deep learning

Adversarial machine learning

DNN watermarking
Deep learning security

Overview

This ranking presents a comprehensive assessment of scientific conferences in the field of Computer Science, meticulously compiled to support researchers, institutions, and professionals in identifying the most impactful venues for scholarly exchange. Developed by Research.com—a recognized leader in science research analytics across all major scientific disciplines and a provider of trusted data on scientific contributions since 2014—this ranking exemplifies a data-driven approach grounded in transparency and rigor.

The position of each conference in the ranking is determined according to a unique bibliometric score engineered by Research.com. This proprietary metric incorporates the estimated h-index along with the count of leading scientists who have participated in each conference within the preceding three years, offering a robust and dynamic measure of influence within the academic community. The Impact Score values included in this ranking were gathered on 2024-11-27 to ensure currency and relevance.

The process of evaluating conferences for inclusion in this ranking was comprehensive and exacting. More than 2,742 conferences were examined, each subjected to meticulous scrutiny and rigorous review. This detailed analysis involved the inspection of over 148,739 scientific documents published within the last three years by a cohort of 13,184 prominent and respected scientists specializing in Computer Science. Such depth of investigation underpins the reliability and credibility of the results presented.

For those seeking an in-depth understanding of the analytical framework and the specific methodologies used in the computation of the ranking scores, comprehensive details are available on our Methodology Page.

Papers citation over time

A key indicator for each conference is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.

The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.

The top authors publishing at Information Hiding (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Jiwu Huang (6 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition,
  • Teddy Furon (5 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Jessica Fridrich (5 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Patrick Bas (5 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition the same number as at the previous edition,
  • Boris Skoric (4 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition.

The overall trend for top authors publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top authors.

Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered

The top affiliations publishing at Information Hiding (based on the number of publications) are:

  • Sun Yat-sen University (6 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition,
  • Binghamton University (6 papers) published 2 papers at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (5 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 2 less than at the previous edition,
  • Eindhoven University of Technology (4 papers) published 1 paper at the last edition, 1 less than at the previous edition,
  • Technische Universität Darmstadt (3 papers) absent at the last edition.

The overall trend for top affiliations publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top affiliations.

Publication chance based on affiliation

The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions at the conference edition to all articles published within that conference. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the conference.

The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.

During the most recent 2012 edition, 9.09% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 45.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 15.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 35.00% of all publications and 5.00% were from other institutions.

Returning Authors Index

A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of conferences they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same conference from year to year.

The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the conference in relation to all participants in a given year.

Returning Institution Index

The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.

The experience to innovation index

Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing at a conference. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a conference, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).

The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:

  • Novice - P < 5 or C < 25 (the number of publications less than 5 or the number of citations less than 25),
  • Competent - P < 10 or C < 100 (the number of publications less than 10 or the number of citations less than 100),
  • Experienced - P < 25 or C < 625 (the number of publications less than 25 or the number of citations less than 625),
  • Master - P < 50 or C < 2500 (the number of publications less than 50 or the number of citations less than 2500),
  • Star - P ≥ 50 and C ≥ 2500 (both the number of publications greater than 50 and the number of citations greater than 2500).

The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
