“…The choice between a symmetric and asymmetric index assumes a key role in the strategic behavior of companies. According to Bar and Leiponen (2012), asymmetric proximity might demonstrate the potential for vertical spillovers rather than horizontal spillovers. This limitation could be discussed in further research using patent citations (Aldieri, 2011;Jaffe, Trajtenberg, & Henderson, 1993).…”

“…In this perspective, the most frequently used measure is the uncentered correlation coefficient, introduced by Jaffe (1986). This procedure rests in the construction of a technological vector for each firm based on the distribution of its patents in a multidimensional space, and the proximity is the uncentered coefficient between the corresponding technology vectors (Aldieri, 2011 and2013;Aldieri & Cincera, 2009 (Cincera, 2005;Rosenkopf & Almeida, 2003) and the Min-complement measure developed by Bar and Leiponen (2012).…”

This paper explores the relationship between a firm's knowledge sourcing strategy and green innovation. The data are taken from Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development REGPAT database, February 2016, relative to the European Patent Office firms' patent applications published up to December 2015.The study contributes to the literature by focusing on the moderating role of integration between different activities related to environmental performance on the relationship between knowledge sources and green innovations. The results from 240 firms indicate a shift in the focus from internal knowledge to external knowledge when developing environmental innovations. Government policies promoting more knowledge complementarity and coordination between environmental fields will help to promote more knowledge transfer, allowing more sustainable development.

“…Numerous measures like this are based on angular separation between classes or [7][8][9] or adjacent class juxtaposition and measures of their overlapping [10][11][12] or probability distance measures [13] based on hypergeometric distribution of probability. As Jaffe states [9] if there is fundamental measure-it is possible to create proper space and measure in it.…”

Main goal of this article-assessment of scientific projects and their economic impact. This assessment includes economic and technological feasibility on the example of elementary physics collider projects. Methodology includes structural integration in other technological fields by means of self-organizing neural maps and anthological retrospective analysis of radical discoveries with their recent impetus for economic development. Self-organizing neural map helps to expose hidden structural similarities of technology spreading and integration with other technologies. This is a new approach exposing the capacity for technology convergence into other industries. Capacity evaluations for integration and emergence of new technologies on the frontiers of elementary particles physics is provided. Explanation of integration problems in explained. Novelty of the study is based on integration of physical attributes into economics enabling new explanations of technology development models. Risk adjusted net present value evaluation is carried out. Comparison of similar projects around the world created in the article shows common frames and model of collider projects development. Risk adjusted model takes into account integration potential of technology under study. Conclusion combining obtained results in neural maps and historical retrospection is made.

“…We therefore suggest measuring the technological distance between two businesses thanks to a distance, in the mathematical sense, between two vectors; for instance, the euclidean distance or the min-complement distance measure. (Bar and Leiponen, 2012). By using equation (12) 5 which provides optimal technological distance as a solution to the optimization issue, we can write that:…”
