Nowadays, under the pressure of numerous research publications, researchers increasingly pay attention to writing survey papers to track and understand one research topic they are interested in, and then begin to conduct more in-depth research. Until this moment, there are two types of survey papers: traditional review analysis and bibliometric statistical analysis. Compared with traditional review analysis, due to the analysis of various bibliometric information that can be quickly summarized to assess and predict one research field’s development, the bibliometric statistical analysis is progressively proposed. However, no research relied on the bibliometric approach to explore fuzzy inference system (FIS) -based classifiers. More importantly, since the current open-ended bibliometric analysis approaches have different assessment focuses, choosing a suitable approach is problematic. Therefore, based on the extraction, integration, and expansion of previous bibliometric analysis theories, this research proposes a new systematic and time-saving bibliometric statistical analysis approach. It is worth noting that the proposed approach eliminates the need to read the internal content of all publications. Two core parts (Publication Information and TOP 20 SETs) are generated by the proposed analysis approach. Among them, analyzing Author Keywords and TOP 20 SETs are unprecedented guiding features to assist researchers in exploring research topic. Significantly, this research relies on the proposed approach to explore FIS-based classifiers. Various assessments cover the bibliometric information of the entire related publications. In addition, these results may need to be considered to increase the citation rate of future publications.
