Social Media Big Data (SMBD) is widely used to serve the economic and social development of human beings. However, as a young research and practice field, the understanding of SMBD in academia is not enough and needs to be supplemented. This paper took Web of Science (WoS) core collection as the data source, and used traditional statistical methods and CiteSpace software to carry out the scientometrics analysis of SMBD, which showed the research status, hotspots and trends in this field. The results showed that: (1) More and more attention has been paid to SMBD research in academia, and the number of journals published has been increased in recent years, mainly in subjects such as Computer Science Engineering and Telecommunications. The results were published primarily in IEEE Access Sustainability and Future Generation Computer Systems the International Journal of eScience and so on; (2) In terms of contributions, China, the United States, the United Kingdom and other countries (regions) have published the most papers in SMBD, high-yield institutions also mainly from these countries (regions). There were already some excellent teams in the field, such as the Wanggen Wan team at Shanghai University and Haoran Xie team from City University of Hong Kong; (3) we studied the hotspots of SMBD in recent years, and realized the summary of the frontier of SMBD based on the keywords and co-citation literature, including the deep excavation and construction of social media technology, the reflection and concerns about the rapid development of social media, and the role of SMBD in solving human social development problems. These studies could provide values and references for SMBD researchers to understand the research status, hotspots and trends in this field.

Identifying combustion regimes is important for understanding combustion phenomena and the structure of flames. This study proposes a combustion regime identification (CRI) method based on rotated principal component analysis (PCA), clustering analysis and the back-propagation neural network (BPNN) method. The methodology is tested with large-eddy simulation (LES) data of two turbulent non-premixed flames. The rotated PCA computes the principal components of instantaneous multivariate data obtained in LES, including temperature, and mass fractions of chemical species. The frame front results detected using the clustering analysis do not rely on any threshold, indicating the quantitative characteristic given by the unsupervised machine learning provides a perspective towards objective and reliable CRI. The training and the subsequent application of the BPNN rely on the clustering results. Five combustion regimes, including environmental air region, co-flow region, combustion zone, preheat zone and fuel stream are well detected by the BPNN, with an accuracy of more than 98% using 5 scalars as input data. Results showed the computational cost of the trained supervised machine learning was low, and the accuracy was quite satisfactory. For instance, even using the combined data of CH4-T, the method could achieve an accuracy of more than 95% for the entire flame. The methodology is a practical method to identify combustion regime, and can provide support for further analysis of the flame characteristics, e.g., flame lift-off height, flame thickness, etc.
