Enhancing Artificial intelligence Policies with Fusion and Forecasting: Insights from Indian Patents Using Network Analysis

Abstract-- This paper presents a study of the interconnectivity and interdependence of various Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies through the use of centrality measures, clustering coefficients, and degree of fusion measures. By analyzing the technologies through different time windows and quantifying their importance, we have revealed important insights into the crucial components shaping the AI landscape and the maturity level of the domain. The results of this study have significant implications for future development and advancements in artificial intelligence and provide a clear understanding of key technology areas of fusion. Furthermore, this paper contributes to AI public policy research by offering a data-driven perspective on the current state and future direction of the field. However, it is important to acknowledge the limitations of this research and call for further studies to build on these results. With these findings, we hope to inform and guide future research in the field of AI, contributing to its continued growth and success. AI has the potential to revolutionize a wide range of industries from healthcare and finance to transportation and agriculture [1] last but not least environmental hard and societal changes [2]. With the ability to analyze vast amounts of data and automate tasks that were once exclusively performed by humans, AI is reshaping the way we live and work. Given the potential of AI, it is essential to study and understand its applications, fusion of technologies, changes over the years in the domain as well as societal impacts. This understanding is crucial for policymakers, as they must develop effective policies that keep pace with the rapid advancement of AI technology. Moreover, the study of AI is also relevant for individuals, businesses, and organizations, as they must be prepared to adapt to the changes brought about by AI. The study of AI is crucial in today's era to unlock the full potential of this groundbreaking technology and to address the challenges and opportunities it presents.
