Due to the demand for safety and convenience in traveling, self-driving technology has developed very fast in the past decades. In this paper, a novel technology forecasting model is developed. The topic-based text mining and expert judgment approaches are combined to forecast the technology trends efficiently and accurately. To improve the reliability of the results, multidimensional information including scientific papers, patents, and industry data is considered. Then, the model is utilized to forecast the development trends of self-driving technology in China. Data ranging from 2002 to 2019 are adopted with proper data cleaning. Topic clustering for papers and patents is performed, and the hierarchical structures are constructed. On this basis, the results of technology’s evolution based on papers and patents are compared and the development trends are obtained. With these results, it is speculated that technology on “Decision” will be the next hotspot in patents. The research results of this paper will provide reference and guidance for Chinese enterprises and government in decision-making on self-driving technology.
The resource integration of the scientific and technological innovation service platform is to accurately grasp the changing trend of users’ innovation needs through big data, tap potential innovation needs, provide effective innovation services in a timely manner, and improve the utilization efficiency of innovation resources. Through the analysis of resources and the research of reorganization, it is possible to further clarify the integration mechanism of scientific and technological innovation service resources and realize the rapid and healthy development of service resources with technological integration.
Japan is one of the first countries to enter the aging society in Asia. According to the Aging Society White Paper issued by Japanese government in 2010, the proportion of Japanese people over the age of 65 has risen from 22.1% in 2008 to 22.7% in 2009. People over the age of 75 make up 10.8% of the total population. It is expected to have 1 elderly in every 2.5 men in 2055. The elderly rate will reach 40.5%. Based on this social background, the systems on pension insurance, elderly care and so on are relatively sound in Japan. In early 1987, "Social Welfare and Nursing Nurses Act" was born at the right moment in Japan. In 2000, Nursing Insurance System was implemented, providing legal support and technical support for the geriatric nursing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
