In recent years, the rapid development of artificial intelligence and data science has given rise to the study of data driven algorithms in highly volatile systems. The scheduling of complex shop floor resources falls into such a category, which is often non-linear in nature, time varying, multi-objective, and subject to interruptions. Ergo, the machine learning-based scheduling, has become a research hotspot and attracted the attention of many scholars. In the literature, the research methods employed in solving scheduling problems are based on various perspectives, such as mathematical programming, combinatorial optimization, and heuristic rules. However, due to the inherent complexity of the problem, many issues remain to be addressed. In particular, with the availability of production data, the progress of computing power, and the breakthrough in intelligent algorithms, a novel branch of data driven algorithms present great potential, for example, the deep learning and reinforcement learning-based algorithms. To reveal the value of machine learning-based scheduling methods, bibliometric analysis was conducted to analyse the relevant articles and documents from the year 1980 to 2019. Finally, the future research trend in the domain of machine learning-based scheduling is considered and tips are provided for researchers as well as practitioners to find leading scientists for collaborations.
