The convergence of deep learning and smart factory is drawing a lot of attentions from not only industrial but also academic circles. The objective of this article is to quantitatively review on deep learning and smart factory from 2010 to 2023. This research analyzed the 138 articles, extracted from the Core Collection of Web of Science, in terms of four dimensions such as the main trend in article publications, the main trend in article citations, the distribution of article publications by research area, and the keywords representing the main contents of published articles. The quantitative review results reveal the following four points: First, the article publications drastically grew from 2019 to 2022 in its annual trend. Second, the article citations have rapidly grown since 2018. Third, Engineering, Computer Science, and Telecommunications are the top 3 research areas composing the 138 articles. Fourth, it is the top 10 keywords such as 'deep', 'learning', 'smart', 'detection', factory', 'data', 'system', 'manufacturing', 'neural', and 'network' that represent the main contents of the 138 articles published from 2010 to 2023 in deep learning and smart factory. These findings revealed by this quantitative review will be significantly useful for deepening and widening relevant future research on deep learning and smart factory.
