Ensemble Modeling for Sustainable Technology Transfer

Abstract

These days, technological advances are being made through technological conversion. Following this trend, companies need to adapt and secure their own sustainable technological strategies. Technology transfer is one such strategy. This method is especially effective in coping with recent technological developments. In addition, universities and research institutes are able to secure new research opportunities through technology transfer. The aim of our study is to provide a technology transfer prediction model for the sustainable growth of companies. In the proposed method, we first collected patent data from a Korean patent information service provider. Next, we used latent Dirichlet allocation, which is a topic modeling method used to identify the technical field of the collected patents. Quantitative indicators on the patent data were also extracted. Finally, we used the variables that we obtained to create a technology transfer prediction model using the AdaBoost algorithm. The model was found to have sufficient classification performance. It is expected that the proposed model will enable universities and research institutes to secure new technology development opportunities more efficiently. In addition, companies using this model can maintain sustainable growth in line, coping with the changing pace of society.

Impact of Construction IT Technology Convergence Innovation on Business Performance

“…Having experienced the rapid changes brought about by two Industrial Revolutions, we are now living in the era of the Third Industrial Revolution, and preparing for the Fourth Industrial Revolution [10]. In recent years, Technology has been the important factor in the information society [11]. The more importantly innovation is emphasized, the more frequently technology is being recognized [11].…”

“…In recent years, Technology has been the important factor in the information society [11]. The more importantly innovation is emphasized, the more frequently technology is being recognized [11]. In the fierce global competition environment, it is a necessary strategy for companies to create new services by fusing themselves with other industries to make inroads into new markets and ultimately achieve sustained growth.…”

“…IT convergence technical innovation within a company is an important factor to select and promote a convergence strategy [12]. Technological conversion is being created through technological advances [11]. Following this trend, the companies should know the changes and what things they need to adapt for their own sustainable technological strategies [11].…”

“…Technological conversion is being created through technological advances [11]. Following this trend, the companies should know the changes and what things they need to adapt for their own sustainable technological strategies [11]. Considering the importance of IT convergence innovations, many companies strive to achieve business performance by introducing various innovations and diffusing them within their companies, but it is undeniable that business performance through IT convergence innovations is hard to evaluate [12].…”

Building Sustainable Development through Technology Transfer Offices: An Approach Based on Levels of Maturity

“…Their main mechanisms of TT commercialization are licensing agreements between the university and private companies, joint research ventures, and university start-ups [15]. Intellectual property has become an indispensable element for the sustainable growth of a corporation and it must be fostered for the development of new technologies [16].…”
