[Objective] This paper analyzes and summarizes recent researches about topic evolution on social media, and mainly introduces the relevant analysis techniques. [Coverage] Relevant literatures were collected in DBLP, Semantic Scholar and CNKI with the use of keywords "Social" and "Topic Evolution". Finally, a total of 83 representative literatures were cited. [Methods] According to the research objects and the methods of topic extraction, the topic evolution techniques are analyzed. [Results] The techniques are divided into two categories and six subcategories, and the prediction of the topic’s trend is analyzed. [Limitations] We didn’t discuss the detailed comparative analysis of the way these techniques introduce time. [Conclusions] This paper analyzed and summarized the techniques of topic evolution on social media, and found the challenges and future directions of this research.
