We conduct Publication time analysis, country/region analysis, journal co-citation analysis, author co-citation, document co-citation, the time-zone visualization analysis on research literature in the field of knowledge networks and creativity, the major researchers and topics in the field of knowledge network, and creativity are clearly presented. Moreover, we summarize the developing trends of knowledge networks and creativity research.
