This paper analyzed technologies related to video and sound device manufacturing closely related to media images, divided applicants into companies, research institutes, universities, individuals and the public, and conducted technical statistical analysis, collective intelligence analysis, and open innovation analysis. It is necessary to express innovative ideas through technology in research institutes or universities, and efforts are needed to expand technologies in the media field in universities. Looking at the contents of patents actually filed, patents filed by companies or individuals were mostly related to media technology, and patents filed by universities and research institutes were mostly related to media content. This means that hardware technology patents should be developed extensively and in-depth in an inseparable relationship between media technology and content, and should be a driving force for software content to play a more diverse and creative role.

The valuation of patented technology has been recently emphasized, and the patent citation is known as an important factor. This study performed a generalized linear model to find variables that effect the patent citation. We classified 13 variables as morphological, technological and conceptual factors and used them to find out effective variables in 14 medical devices classification. Through the empirical study, we found seven effective variables (assignee nationality, assignee character, the number of inventors, the number of application countries, the number of IPC, the number of references, the strength of bibliographic coupling). In order to apply to Korean industry, this study has significance that provides basic research to citation analysis model.

These days, regional innovation draws more attention than ever as a growth engine for regional economies, and governments put a variety of efforts to establish Regional Innovation systems(RISs). In this circumstance, this study aims to analyze types of RISs and the combinations of the factors influencing innovation performance as measured by patent application. Most of previous works have depended on case-oriented or variable-oriented strategy to classify types of RISs or to analyze the effects on performance of innovation factors, having some limitations: Variable-oriented approaches fail to capture complex combinatory effects of factors, while case-oriented approaches tend to depend on subjective interpretation. This study made use of the recently proposed fs/QCA(Fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis) to overcome the limitations of those strategies. Based on the theory of RIS, three factors for regional innovation-input, infrastructure, and network-are used to classify 16 Korean Provinces. The results show that eight types of regional innovation types are identified, and that most of the regions are classified into either IN-type, equipped with high levels of Input and Network, or F-type, with high levels of infrastructure. In addition, applying seven sub-variables of the three factors to the fussy-set combination factor analysis, we examine a combination of factors influencing patent application. The results show that regions with high levels of R&D expense, valid patent, industry-academia cooperation, IP budget, and TLO values, and low IP capital almost always have a high level of patent application. Therefore, for regional innovation, the public sector needs to provide institutional support for R & D personnel training. It is also important to for both the public and the private sectors to make efforts to stimulate IP financing.

Firms and individuals who have invented new technologies have options to keep them secret, to apply for patents or to defensively publish them. Defensive publication is strategic use of patents by withdrawing patent applications to make the relevant information public. This paper empirically analyzes the determinants of patent withdrawals and finds that withdrawal of patents before examination of patent office squares with the implication from the defensive publication theory. The paper also shows the importance of applicant type which has been overlooked in previous studies of the patent withdrawal.

This study was conducted using social network analysis, variance analysis, and regression analysis to investigate the effects of cooperation between innovators on technical performance. Based on data of joint applicants filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office from 2009 to 2012, we derive network structural variables and characteristic variables, and identify network characteristics that affect the overall network structural type, roles for each subject of innovation, and innovation performance. The findings are as follows: ⅰ) The network of this study is a distributed, small-world network within which relatively small groups of innovators are distributed. ⅱ) Universities were found to play the most important role in cooperation, but diversity of cooperating partners exhibited similar effects. ⅲ) It was shown that access to quick and accurate knowledge from familiar partners exhibits a more positive influence on generating innovative performance than unfamiliar knowledge from a variety of cooperating partners in non-familiar fields.

In this paper, we investigated the number of domestic patent applications by year, the number of domestic patent disclosures by year, and the number of domestic registrations by year regarding smart factories. The number of patent applications by applicant type was investigated. Based on the patents studied, it was found that the IPC appearing in the most patents was G05B 19/418. In addition, through social network analysis of smart factory patented IPCs, it was found that G05B 19/418 was the IPC with the highest degree of centrality. From the above, if the IPC of the core technology of the patent submitted for smart factory is G05B 19/418, the technology combined with G05B 23/02, that is, the technology combining "factory control" and "monitoring" is the most patented. When the IPC of the core technology was G06Q 50/04, it was confirmed that the technology combined with G06Q 50/10, that is, the technology combining "manufacturing" and "service" was the most applied for patents. Through this, it was found that in order to apply for a patent for a smart factory, it would be necessary to file a patent application that takes into account the connectivity between IPCs.

This study empirically investigates applicable possibility of open technology innovation with which the government is concerned, by figuring out the relationship between firms' innovation behaviors and innovation outputs and their utilization of information network. Empirical methodology was employed as logit regression to explain firms' innovation behaviors and the data set includes more than 2500 firms in the manufacturing sectors. First, empirical findings showed that firms' innovation competencies and behaviors can be explained as the trend of patent application, sales and innovation outputs significantly. The patents of small and medium-sized businesses are inclined to be positive to information sources of university and government-supported research institute and the sales increased when they had labs to concentrate on R&D. On the other hand, the existence of labor union turn out to be negative to their sales. Second, the types of information network which firms utilize turned out to be connected with their innovation behaviors and purposes. Third, four types of innovation, i.e., product, process, organization, and marketing innovation was employed and innovation behaviors and outputs are well connected.
