SEOUL, August 12 (AJU PRESS) - Samsung Electronics ranked 14th worldwide in producing high-quality research papers on artificial intelligence (AI), according to a U.S. study.

The analysis of AI publications from the past decade, conducted by Georgetown University's Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET), found Google's parent company Alphabet leading with 3,374 highly cited papers, followed by Microsoft, Meta and IBM.

Samsung contributed 293 papers, becoming the only Korean firm to make the top 100 list.

In papers accepted at top-tier AI conferences, Samsung ranked 11th globally with 525 publications. Microsoft topped this category with 4,305 papers, followed by Alphabet and China's Tencent.

Samsung's AI patent portfolio ranks fourth globally with 6,032 patents registered in the last decade. This places the company behind China's Baidu and Tencent, and America's IBM, but ahead of Huawei, Alphabet and Microsoft.

The CSET report highlights private sector companies' growing importance in driving AI research and development, often outpacing universities due to access to substantial computing resources and capital.
