Abstract

[Purpose/Significance] Terminology is an important linguistic resource and serves as the foundation and core element of the discourse system. In the context of the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and large language models, a systematic review of the progress and challenges of terminology resource construction and service at home and abroad holds significant value for AI-driven terminology research in the future and for terminology to support the development of artificial intelligence. [Method/Process] Through literature review and online research, this paper organized the situation of terminology institutions, policies, and standards both domestically and internationally. It explained the research hotspots of terminology resource construction and service based on literature knowledge mapping and theoretical research content. Typical terminology platforms were analyzed from various perspectives, including their fundamental attributes, domains, and functional modules. The modes of resource construction and service delivery for terminology were synthesized by integrating theoretical research with practical case studies. Finally, this paper offered suggestions and prospects for enhancing terminology resource development and improving service quality. [Result/Conclusion] The hot topics of terminology resource construction and service include terminology translation, terminology services based on knowledge organization, its methodologies and technologies, and the research and application of domain-specific terminology resources. Both domestic and international terminology organizations have established policies and standards to facilitate terminological work, and developed diverse terminology database platforms. Current modes of terminology resource construction involve collaborative efforts among various stakeholders, driven by scientific research projects, expert contributions, academic community building, and the support from artificial intelligence technologies. Terminology service models are based on mobile platforms, multimedia resources, professional dictionaries, specialized platforms, academic dissemination, and large AI models. The current and future paradigm of AI-driven scientific research（AI4S） places increasing demands on the construction and service of terminology resources. It is essential to continue strengthening research on terminology standardization and normalization, to build an integrated platform for terminology resources, to create a foundational and intelligent platform for AI4S terminology resources, to improve organizational coordination and support mechanisms, and to enhance the training of terminology professionals as well as international cooperation and exchange, in order to promote the efficient and sustainable development of terminology resources and services.

Key words： terminology; terminology management; terminology database; terminology resource construction; terminology services
