Artificial intelligence applications in supply chain management

Abstract

This paper presents a systematic review of studies related to artificial intelligence (AI) applications in supply chain management (SCM). Our systematic search of the related literature identifies 150 journal articles published between 1998 and 2020. A thorough bibliometric analysis is completed to develop the past and present state of this literature. A co-citation analysis on this pool of articles provides an understanding of the clusters of knowledge that constitute this research area. To further direct our discussions, we develop and validate an AI taxonomy which we use as a scale to conduct our bibliometric and co-citation analyses. The proposed taxonomy consists of three research categ..
