Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of data mining technology, and more specifically, relates to a method, apparatus, and storage medium for recommending research collaboration institutions based on technology topic identification. Background Technology

[0002] With continuous social development and progress, open innovation has become a hot topic, and collaborative innovation has become the optimal choice for innovation entities to achieve resource complementarity, improve innovation efficiency, and reduce new product development costs. Enterprises, universities, research institutes, government agencies, and social organizations participate in collaborative innovation, gradually forming innovation cooperation networks with organizational forms such as industry-university-research cooperation, university-enterprise cooperation, industry alliance cooperation, and research institution cooperation. However, due to the scarcity and finiteness of resources, finding partner institutions with similar research fields and a willingness to cooperate is becoming increasingly difficult.

[0003] Current methods for recommending partners include those based on the similarity of future common neighbors. This method calculates the similarity between the node to be recommended and the node to be examined, and all nodes including the node to be recommended, the node to be examined, and future common neighbors, based on the connections between enterprises in the supply chain network. This yields a final cooperation score between the node to be recommended and the node to be examined, aiming to improve the accuracy of the recommendation results. However, supply chain networks are formed during product production and distribution, and network nodes include raw material suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, retailers, and consumers. Such networks focus more on upstream and downstream relationships between enterprises than on collaborative innovation. Therefore, they cannot be used to find innovative entities with strong R&D capabilities and high levels of expertise. Other methods include recommendation systems and methods based on patent data for recommending partner institutions. This method, based on collaborative filtering, incorporates inverse distance weights to optimize the recommendation ranking, effectively improving the accuracy of partner institution recommendations. Recommendation methods based on candidate sets of patent text similarity can better uncover the needs of target enterprises; however, patent data, as a single data source, has limitations and cannot simultaneously consider cutting-edge science and technology. Furthermore, this method does not consider the cooperation intentions and R&D activity of candidate institutions, requiring further screening of the selected institutions.

[0037] Example 1

[0038] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a method for recommending research cooperation institutions according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, it includes steps S101-S105.

[0039] In step S101, the scope of research and development activities of the target research institution is obtained.

[0040] In this embodiment, the scope of research and development activities of the target research institution refers to the fields involved, including but not limited to the scope of industries engaged in, the industry classification, related disciplines, and organizational structure.

[0041] In step S102, topic classification terms are generated based on the scope of the R&D activities.

[0042] In this embodiment, the method for generating topic classification terms based on the scope of R&D activities includes: generating a technology decomposition table based on the obtained scope of R&D activities of the target research institution, wherein the technology decomposition table includes at least a first technology branch and a second technology branch; and determining the topic classification terms according to the branches of the technology decomposition table.

[0043] In this embodiment, the technology decomposition table is a division of topic classification terms. The technology decomposition table includes a hierarchical structure, that is, each first-level technology branch is decomposed into at least second-level technology branches. The topic classification terms correspond to each level of technology branch, and each technology branch contains at least one word.

[0044] Optionally, generating the technology decomposition table includes: using a word similarity calculation method to determine words related to the research and development activities of the target research institution, forming a topic classification word library; and classifying the words in the topic classification word library according to their text type and position to form a technology decomposition table. In this embodiment, commonly used word similarity calculation methods, such as methods based on world knowledge or a certain classification system and methods based on statistical context vector space models, can be used to generate the technology decomposition table.

[0045] In step S103, based on the literature dataset generated by retrieving the topic classification terms, the cutting-edge technologies corresponding to the literature data are labeled.

[0046] In this embodiment, the method for labeling the cutting-edge technologies corresponding to the literature data in the literature dataset includes: filtering scientific and technological literature in the literature dataset; labeling the literature data derived from the scientific and technological literature, wherein the types and sources of the scientific and technological literature data depend on the data resources accessed by the system, including but not limited to: science and technology policies, project texts, academic papers, conference papers, patent documents, research reports, independent web pages, electronic documents, etc.

[0047] The method for labeling cutting-edge technologies corresponding to literature data based on the literature dataset generated by retrieving the topic classification terms includes: calculating the proportion of technical topic terms in the literature dataset to obtain the first word frequency of the technical topic terms, wherein the technical topic terms include the topic classification terms; determining high-frequency technical topic terms by comparing the first frequency with the frequency threshold according to a preset frequency threshold; constructing a high-frequency technical topic term co-occurrence network based on the co-occurrence relationship of the high-frequency technical topic terms and summarizing the characteristics of high-frequency technical topic term clusters; identifying high-frequency technical topic terms of the same term cluster as a cutting-edge technology topic to form a list of target research institutions whose R&D activities include the cutting-edge technology topic; calculating the proportion of the cutting-edge technology topic in the list of cutting-edge technology topics in the literature dataset according to the TF-IDF algorithm to obtain the second word frequency of the cutting-edge technology topic; and labeling the cutting-edge technologies corresponding to the literature data based on the second word frequency.

[0048] In this embodiment, the technical subject terms include, but are not limited to: subject classification terms, words marked in the titles, keywords, and abstracts of scientific and technological documents.

[0049] Specifically, after completing the statistics of technical topic terms in the literature dataset, the occurrence frequency of each technical topic term is determined, i.e., the first term frequency; according to the preset frequency threshold, when the first term frequency of the technical topic term is greater than the frequency threshold, the technical topic term is determined to be a high-frequency technical topic term.

[0050] A co-occurrence network is constructed based on high-frequency technical keywords and their co-occurrence relationships. The co-occurrence relationships determine the relationship between the high-frequency technical keyword and other technical keywords in the document dataset. The co-occurrence network is then analyzed using a network community partitioning algorithm to summarize the characteristics of high-frequency word clusters within it. This network community partitioning algorithm can explain the correlations between information resources. In this embodiment, the summary of high-frequency word cluster characteristics can be achieved using any method of the network community partitioning algorithm.

[0051] High-frequency technical terms within the same term cluster are grouped as a single technical topic. A list of cutting-edge technical topics is determined, using communities as boundaries. The proportion of each cutting-edge technical topic in the corresponding scientific literature is calculated using the TF-IDF algorithm, and this proportion is taken as the term frequency of that cutting-edge technology. The cutting-edge technologies corresponding to the literature data are identified based on their term frequencies and then tagged. When multiple cutting-edge technologies correspond to a single piece of literature data, the cutting-edge technology tagging of that literature data includes all corresponding cutting-edge technical topics; that is, one piece of literature data corresponds to zero, one, or more cutting-edge technical topics.

[0052] TF-IDF (term frequency–inverse document frequency) is a commonly used weighting technique in information retrieval and text mining. TF-IDF is a statistical method used to evaluate the importance of a word to a document within a document set or corpus. A word's importance increases proportionally to its frequency of occurrence in a document, but decreases inversely proportionally to its frequency of occurrence in the corpus. Term frequency (TF) represents the frequency of a term (keyword) in the text. This number is usually normalized (generally by dividing the term frequency by the total number of words in the document) to prevent bias towards longer documents. Inverse document frequency (IDF) refers to the IDF of a specific word, which can be obtained by dividing the total number of documents by the number of documents containing that word, and then taking the logarithm of the quotient. The fewer documents containing term t, the higher the IDF, indicating that the term has good class distinguishing ability.

[0053] In step S104, data information of the innovation entities engaged in the cutting-edge technology is extracted to establish an innovation entity dataset.

[0054] In this embodiment, the method for establishing an innovation subject dataset includes: extracting innovation subject information based on the labeling of the cutting-edge technology, wherein the innovation subject information includes at least: scope information of the innovation subject, field information of the innovation subject dataset, evaluation index information of the innovation subject, etc.

[0055] In this embodiment, the extracted innovation entity information includes the scope information of the innovation entity, the field information of the innovation entity dataset, and the evaluation index information of the innovation entity. The scope information of the innovation entity includes at least the author and institution information of the scientific and technological literature. The field information of the innovation entity dataset includes at least the innovation entity name, innovation entity ID, innovation entity address, country of origin, city of origin, scholar ID, scholar email, document ID, number of collaborating entities, document type marker, publication date, and cutting-edge technology marker. The evaluation index information of the innovation entity includes at least the number of academic papers produced by the innovation entity, the number of patent applications, the growth rate of scientific and technological literature output, and the number of collaborating institutions. Based on the innovation entity information, an innovation entity dataset is established.

[0056] In step S105, the cooperative institutions of the target research institution are determined by calculating the recommendation scores of the innovation subjects in the innovation subject dataset.

[0057] In this embodiment, the method for determining the collaborating institutions of the target research institution includes: obtaining pre-set evaluation index weights for the innovation entity; calculating a recommendation score for the innovation entity based on the index weights; sorting the recommendation scores in descending order to obtain a list of collaborating institutions, and determining the collaborating institutions of the target research institution.

[0058] The method for determining the evaluation indicators of the innovation entity includes: calculating the theoretical research indicator Ti of the innovation entity's participation in the target frontier technology topic based on the number of academic papers produced by the innovation entity; calculating the applied research indicator Ai of the innovation entity's participation in the target frontier technology topic based on the number of patent applications of the innovation entity; calculating the R&D activity indicator Ri of the innovation entity's participation in the target frontier technology topic based on the growth rate of the innovation entity's scientific and technological literature output; calculating the cooperation activity indicator Ci of the innovation entity's participation in the target frontier technology topic based on the number of collaborating institutions of the innovation entity; and normalizing the theoretical research indicator, the applied research indicator, the R&D activity indicator, and the cooperation activity indicator to determine the normalized values ​​of the evaluation indicators.

[0059] In this embodiment, based on the number of academic papers produced by the innovation entity, the theoretical research index (Ti) of the innovation entity in the specified cutting-edge technology topic can be obtained by calculating the proportion of academic papers related to the specified cutting-edge technology topic produced by the innovation entity; based on the number of patent applications of the innovation entity, the applied research index (Ai) of the innovation entity in the specified cutting-edge technology topic can be obtained by calculating the proportion of patent applications related to the specified cutting-edge technology topic submitted by the innovation entity; based on the growth rate of scientific and technological literature output of the innovation entity, the R&D activity index (Ri) of the innovation entity in the specified cutting-edge technology topic can be obtained by calculating the average annual growth rate of scientific and technological literature related to the specified cutting-edge technology topic produced by the innovation entity; based on the number of collaborating institutions of the innovation entity, the collaboration activity index (Ci) of the innovation entity in the specified cutting-edge technology topic can be obtained by statistically analyzing the number of collaborations between the innovation entity and other entities in the specified cutting-edge technology topic.

[0060] The methods for normalizing the evaluation indicators include:

[0061] Normalization is performed according to the following formula:

[0062]

[0063] Where, x max x represents the maximum value of the evaluation indicator data. mix is the minimum value of the evaluation indicator data, and is the normalized value of the evaluation indicator data.

[0064] In this embodiment, the method for calculating the recommendation score of the innovation subject includes:

[0065] The recommendation score for the innovation entity is calculated using the following formula:

[0066]

[0067] in, These are the weights of indicators in theoretical research; These are the weights of applied research indicators; It is the weight of the R&D activity index; 1 is the weight of the collaboration activity index; Ti is the theoretical research index; Ai is the applied research index; Ri is the R&D activity index; Ci is the collaboration activity index; i is the target frontier technology theme.

[0068] This application, on the one hand, bases its decision on the scope of research and development activities of the target research institution, ensuring that the final selected collaborating institution has a similar research field to the target research institution; on the other hand, by generating a literature dataset, it can extract the innovation subject from multiple perspectives in a comprehensive manner, making the establishment of the innovation subject dataset more objective; furthermore, by quantifying the innovation theme and calculating recommendation scores, it can enable users to optimize the recommendation ranking according to their needs and select collaborating institutions.

[0069] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a method for recommending collaborating institutions of the X Institute according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 2 As shown, this example illustrates a recommended partner institution for Institute X. Institute X primarily engages in research in the field of human settlements, meaning its research and development activities fall within this area.

[0070] In this embodiment, step 201 is first executed to determine the technology decomposition of the research and development activities of Institute X, resulting in a technology decomposition table. This technology decomposition table includes two levels of technology branches. The first technology branch includes: natural systems, human systems, residential systems, social systems, and supporting systems. The second technology branch includes: dividing the natural system into atmospheric environment and air pollution; dividing the human system into subjective annoyance evaluation, comfort assessment, and ecology; dividing the residential system into urban sewage and domestic waste; dividing the social system into noise, sound insulation, and sound absorption; and dividing the supporting system into indoor air and ventilation.

[0071] Then, step 202 is executed to determine relevant subject classification terms based on the discipline system of human settlements. Step 203 involves searching and downloading relevant scientific and technological documents from literature retrieval databases based on the subject classification terms. These databases include academic journal databases, patent databases, and national policy databases. Step 204 involves marking the sources of the documents in the literature dataset. Step 205 involves establishing a literature dataset. In this embodiment, the literature dataset includes 16,058 academic papers, 1,302 patents, and 15 national policies. Based on manual interpretation of the literature dataset, step 206 is executed to mark the cutting-edge technologies in the literature data.

[0072] In this embodiment, the labeling of cutting-edge technologies in literature data includes three methods: the first is manual interpretation; the second is extracting keywords as technical subject terms and calculating word frequency; and the third is extracting IPC sub-category technical subject terms and calculating word frequency.

[0073] For example, in one embodiment, cutting-edge technologies are labeled by interpreting the cutting-edge technologies in the national policy data. In this embodiment, the national policy data includes 15 cutting-edge technologies.

[0074] In another embodiment, keywords are used as technical topic terms. The frequency of each technical topic term is calculated and sorted in descending order based on frequency. A frequency threshold is set, and high-frequency technical topic terms are determined by comparing the frequency with the threshold. For example, if the frequency threshold is set to 30, 234 words are included in the high-frequency technical topic term range. A high-frequency technical topic term co-occurrence network is constructed based on the co-occurrence relationships of these terms, and community structures are defined. For example, this co-occurrence network is divided into 7 community structures, including 7 high-frequency word clusters, which represent the cutting-edge technologies in academic paper data based on the frequency of high-frequency technical topic terms, totaling 7 items.

[0075] In another embodiment, patent IPC subcategories are used as technical subject terms. The frequency of each technical subject term is calculated and they are arranged in descending order based on frequency. A frequency threshold is set, and high-frequency technical subject terms are determined by comparing the frequency with the threshold. For example, if the high-frequency threshold is set to 20, then 156 IPC subcategories are included in the high-frequency technical subject term range. A high-frequency technical subject term co-occurrence network is constructed based on the co-occurrence relationships of these high-frequency technical subject terms, and community structures are defined. For example, this co-occurrence network is divided into 8 community structures, including 8 high-frequency word clusters. These high-frequency word clusters represent the cutting-edge technologies of the patent data, totaling 8 items.

[0076] The labeled cutting-edge technologies are deduplicated to obtain the final labeled cutting-edge technologies. In this embodiment, 23 cutting-edge technologies are finally labeled from the human settlements literature data, including: outdoor sound reinforcement systems, traffic noise pollution control technology, noise monitoring and evaluation, pipeline vibration reduction and noise reduction technology, flue gas nitrogen oxide purification technology, dioxin-like air pollutant control, intelligent spray dust suppression technology, VOCs, ozone and other organic waste gas treatment, low-concentration malodorous waste gas treatment, indoor air quality improvement, synergistic control technology of air pollutants and greenhouse gases, rural domestic sewage treatment, harmless treatment and resource utilization technology of toilet waste, rural domestic waste treatment technology, beautiful countryside, urban thermal environment and thermal comfort research, urban ecology, the impact of climate change on human settlements, the impact of vegetation diversity on human settlements, intelligent management of human settlements, intelligent buildings, intelligent monitoring of human settlements, and smart urban environment and monitoring.

[0077] After the final frontier technologies are labeled, step 207 is executed to establish a frontier technology innovation subject dataset. Taking the labeling of traffic noise pollution control technology in the literature dataset as an example, in this embodiment, the literature dataset includes 338 academic literature records and 124 patents. The innovation subject data of the academic literature data and patent papers are extracted. The innovation subject data includes: extracting the author and institution information of journal articles and the patentee information of patents. After cleaning and processing the innovation subject data, the final innovation subject data information is retained. Based on the innovation subject data information, an innovation subject dataset for traffic noise pollution control technology is established.

[0078] After obtaining the innovation entity dataset, step 208 is executed to calculate the evaluation indicators of the innovation entities. In this embodiment, based on the innovation entity dataset for traffic noise pollution control technology, the evaluation indicators of the innovation entities are calculated according to the following formula:

[0079]

[0080]

[0081]

[0082] Collaboration Activity Index (Ci) = Number of papers co-published with other institutions + Number of patent applications co-filed with other institutions

[0083] In this embodiment, calculations show that the theoretical research index, applied research index, scientific research activity index, and collaborative activity index scores of the WAVES research group at Ghent University, Belgium are 0.86, 0.84, 0.60, and 0.49, respectively; while the theoretical research index, applied research index, scientific research activity index, and collaborative activity index scores of the State Key Laboratory of Traction Power at Southwest Jiaotong University, China are 0.68, 0.44, 0.57, and 0.71, respectively.

[0084] According to step 209, the weights of each evaluation indicator are set. In this embodiment, the weights of theoretical research indicators are set. Weight of applied research indicators Research activity index weight Cooperation Activity Index Weight Step 210 calculates the recommended score of the innovation entity, and step 211 rearranges the order of the innovation entities according to the recommended score, that is, the top five innovation entities are included in the list of technical cooperation institutions for traffic noise pollution control.
