contents It's hard to imagine human life in the digital and AI age without polynomials because they are everywhere but mostly invisible to ordinary people: in data trends, on computer screens, in the shapes around us, and in the very fabric of technology. One of these, the simple but elegant Bernstein polynomials, was discovered by a scientist from the Russian Empire, Sergei Bernstein, in 1912 and plays a central role in mathematical analysis, computational and applied mathematics, geometric modelling, computer-aided geometric design, computer graphics and other areas of science and engineering. They have been the sub-ject of much research for over a hundred years. However, no work has carried out database-derived research analysis, such as bibliometric, keyword or network analysis, or more generally, data analysis of manuscript data related to Bernstein polynomials extracted from digital academic databases. This work, which appears to be the first-ever attempt at the bibliometric data analysis of Bernstein polynomials, aims to fill this gap and open researchers' eyes to potentially new or underexplored areas of mathematics and engineering where Bernstein polynomials may one day be used to make discoveries. The results may be helpful to academics researching Bernstein polynomials and looking for potential applications, collaborators, supervisors, funding or journals to publish in.
