Manufacturing evolved substantially over the years and with it the inherent complexity increased well. Currently organizations are transitioning towards smart manufacturing and implementation of industry 4.0 paradigms. Artificial intelligence and machine learning can help organizations of any size on this journey. The physics of manufacturing processes have been extensively studied and documented as relationships and equations. Machine learning algorithms rely on quality data to enable inferences and smart actions. At the intersection of these two methods lies hybrid analytics which captures the knowledge in the defined physics-based relationships and uses data-driven methods to fill the gaps that the physics-based model may have. The goal of this paper is to identify approaches and use cases of hybrid modeling wherein the term hybrid is used to indicate the combination of a physics- or first-principle-based modeling component and a data-driven modeling component. VOSViewer, Voyant Tools, and Microsoft Excel have been used to understand the relationships between various attributes associated with the articles on hybrid modeling. The papers cited the most, the organizations/regions that funded the research in this domain, the contents of recent papers, and what categories and keywords are frequently used are discussed. This work is the basis for an extended literature review to understand in detail the algorithms, use cases, and implementation issues of hybrid analytics. This bibliometric analysis uses the state of the art references and procedures mentioned in the documentation of VOSViewer and Voyant Tools. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
