作者：

Highlights：

• This study conducts a social network analysis of international co-authorship relationships in “big data” science and analyzes semantic networks.

• The results indicate that the U.S. was the most central country, followed by Germany, the U.K., and France, in that order.

• Some European countries engaged in international collaboration to an extent greater than expected.
