Recent advances in deep learning methods for natural language processing(NLP) have created new business opportunities and made NLP research criticalfor industry development. As one of the big players in the field of NLP,together with governments and universities, it is important to track theinfluence of industry on research. In this study, we seek to quantify andcharacterize industry presence in the NLP community over time. Using a corpuswith comprehensive metadata of 78,187 NLP publications and 701 resumes of NLPpublication authors, we explore the industry presence in the field since theearly 90s. We find that industry presence among NLP authors has been steadybefore a steep increase over the past five years (180% growth from 2017 to2022). A few companies account for most of the publications and provide fundingto academic researchers through grants and internships. Our study shows thatthe presence and impact of the industry on natural language processing researchare significant and fast-growing. This work calls for increased transparency ofindustry influence in the field.
