In the epoch of globalization, the safeguarding and preservation of intangible cultural heritage (ICH) have transcended national boundaries, emerging as a universal imperative and a cornerstone of global cultural diversity. This global consensus underscores the significance of preserving the rich tapestry of traditions, practices, beliefs, and expressions that are integral to the identity and continuity of various communities worldwide. The advancements in information technology and the proliferation of new media platforms have revolutionized the landscape for ICH preservation and dissemination, offering unprecedented opportunities for documentation, accessibility, and global outreach. This comprehensive study delves into the digitization of ICH by leveraging the extensive resources of the China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI) database, a preeminent repository of scholarly publications. To conduct a rigorous analysis, we employed a multi-faceted methodological approach, integrating CNKI's sophisticated search capabilities with the K-Means clustering algorithm for data categorization, the versatility of the Python programming language for data processing, and Gephi-powered data visualization techniques to visually illustrate complex patterns and relationships. Our investigation spans the last two decades, examining journal articles that specifically address the digitization of ICH. The findings reveal distinct patterns in several key dimensions: publication trends, highlighting the growing interest and momentum in this field; authorship profiles, showcasing the diversity and contributions of researchers; journal distribution, reflecting the preferences and influence of specific publications; institutional affiliations, illuminating the collaborative networks and research strengths across institutions; collaborative networks, uncovering the intricate webs of collaboration among researchers; subject term co-occurrence, indicating emerging research foci and interdisciplinary connections; and the evolution of prominent themes within the digital research landscape on ICH. At the core of digital preservation efforts for ICH lies a multifaceted agenda that encompasses fundamental theories underpinning the process, innovative technologies enabling its realization, strategic management practices for sustainable preservation, diverse applications that enhance access and appreciation, and research that pushes the boundaries of knowledge and practice. Building upon the current research landscape, future endeavors in this domain ought to prioritize the development of robust theoretical frameworks and integrated knowledge systems, fostering interdisciplinary interpretations that bridge gaps between traditional disciplines and emerging fields.
