Technology Mining

Tech mining is text-oriented analytics that supports decision-making in science, technology, and innovation (ST&I) policy and management in areas including competitive technical intelligence, R&D management, and research evaluation. Presenting selected papers from the 12th Global TechMining Conference (GTM2022), this book covers novel digital information sources such as optimization and integration of 360-degree view in science, economic, political, and social domains; processing methods that accelerate and optimize procedures involving human expertise, such as Delphi; and visualizations and other outputs such as data visualization to provide better communication of research findings. Technology Mining: Text-Analytics for Evidence-Based Foresight is an essential guide for a cross-disciplinary network of ST&I policy analysts, software specialists, researchers, technology managers, and students to further advance and adopt textual information in multiple scientific, technology, and business development fields.
