为了总结和推动图象工程这一新学科的发展，需要了解和掌握该学科有关科技人员的情况，为此根据文献计量学的原理，对最近5年“中国图象工程”综述系列中索引文献的作者数量、作者发文量、作者合著量、篇均作者数、活跃作者群、作者增复量等进行了统计分析。该项工作为揭示我国图象工程研究者的水平、现状和变化，为概括图象工程在我国的发展情况、研究趋势和应用范围提供了有参考价值的数据。

To summarize and promote the development of the new discipline——image engineering, a study for knowing and mastering the situation of related researchers is required. This paper, according to the principles and methods of bibliometrics, made a systematic investigation on the authors of articles published in 15 important journals in the last five years. All these journals are indexed in the survey series of“Image Engineering in China”. The statistics investigated include the number of authors, the author productivity, the number of collaborated publications, the average number of authors per paper, the active author group and the author variation ratio. Analysis and discussion on the statistics made are also presented. This work reveals the level, current status and alteration of researchers on image engineering, and provides useful information for summarizing the development, progress trends and application areas of image engineering in China.
