Group: G In this paper we will present you the process and progress of our state-of-the-art AR paper analysis.

In this blog article we would give an update about the progress of our state-of-the-art AR paper analysis. Within the last weeks we were busy creating a plan for selecting, and retrieving, sorting and analyzing state-of-the-art papers in the area of AR. Our methodology follows proposals from the literature that we have slightly adapted to conform to our requirements. The goal of the paper analysis is to analyse and collect, which AR technologies were used in state-of-the-art AR papers and especially how these applications were evaluated, so that we could indicate the frequency of the used methods, identify gaps and trends and compare them with results from previous work.

We already defined our selection criteria in the blog article “Selecting state-of-the-art papers (2018-12-12)”. As already described there, we analyzed publications from the ISMAR and CHI, two major conferences in the field of Augmented Reality. Based on Duenser, Grasset, & Billinghurst (2008) the ACM Digital Library and IEEE Xplore are two main publishers in the field of AR. Therefore they used these as sources for their paper analysis.

Regarding the time interval for our publication analysis we finally decided us for the years 2015 to 2017, succeeding the work of Dey, Billinghurst, Lindeman, & II (2016) who analysed AR publications from the years 2005 to 2014. Against our initial idea we decided to drop papers from the years 2018, as the papers from ISMAR 2018 are not yet in the database of IEEE, so they can not be searched based on our keyword searching approach (State: January 2019) and therefore could not be analyzed.
