The research is applied and uses scientific indices to evaluate the scientific outputs of the field of information retrieval and the statistical population includes all records of the Web of Science Citation Database. The findings showed that molar, H. was the top author in this field with 36 records, and the United States was the top country with 1984 records. The NATIONAL DELA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE CNRS Institute was recognized by producing 235 records best Institute and LECTURE NOTES IN COMPUTER SCIENCE with 915 records best Journal. Computer science was introduced as the top subject area with 8241 records. An article entitled Graph Regularized Nonnegative Matrix Factorization for Data Representation received the highest citation (including 585 citations) as the top information retrieval article. The results showed that the growth of scientific productions in the field of information retrieval did not follow a steady trend and declined during 2011-2012 as well as in 2017 and during the period of 2013 to 2016 with a growing trend in this field.
