As recognized by all scientific and industrial groups, carbon dioxide($CO_2$) capture and storage(CCS) could play an important role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Especially carbon capture technology by dry sorbent is considered as a most energy-efficient method among the existing CCS technologies. Patent analysis has been considered to be a necessary step for identifying technological trend and planning technology strategies. This paper is aimed at identifying evolving technology trend and key indicators of dry sorbent from the objective information of patents. And technology map of key patents is also presented. In this study the patents applied in korea, japan, china, canada, US, EU from 1993 to 2013 are analyzed. The result of patent analysis could be used for R&D and policy making of domestic CCS industry.

This study aims to derive a technology development roadmap in related fields by utilizing patent documents of financial technology. To this end, patent documents are extracted by dragging technical keywords from prior research and related reports on financial technology. By applying the TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) technique in the extracted patent document, which is a text mining technique, to the extracted patent documents, the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm was applied to identify the keywords and identify the topics of the core technologies of financial technology. Based on the proportion of topics by year, which is the result of LDA, promising technology fields and convergence fields were identified through trend analysis and similarity analysis between topics. A first-stage technology development roadmap for technology field development and a second-stage technology development roadmap for convergence were derived through network analysis about the technology data-based integrated management system of the high-dimensional payment system using RF and intelligent cards, as well as the security processing methodology for data information and network payment, which are identified financial technology fields. The proposed method can serve as a sufficient reason basis for developing financial technology R&D strategies and technology roadmaps.

특허의 중요성이 커짐에 따라 특허분석의 중요성 또한 점점 커지고 있다. 특허분석은 네트워크 기반 방법과 키워드 기반 방법으로 나눠지는데 네트워크 기반은 특허 내부에 존재하는 세부 기술정보에 대한 분석이 불가능하다는 단점이 있고 키워드 기반은 기술정보간의 상호관계를 규명하지 못한다는 단점이 있다. 기존에 제시된 네트워크 기반 특허 분석과 키워드 기반 분석의 한계를 극복하기 위해서 두 방법을 혼합한 방법으로서 본 연구에서는 특허 키워드 네트워크 기반 분석 방법론을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 LED 분야의 특허들을 대상으로 텍스트 마이닝을 통해 중요한 기술정보를 추출한 다음, 키워드 네트워크를 구축하고, 이를 대상으로 커뮤니티 네트워크 분석을 수행하였다. 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 특허 키워드 네트워크는 매우 낮은 밀도와 매우 높은 클러스터링 지수를 나타내었다. 밀도가 높다는 것은 LED 분야내 특허 키워드 네트워크 내 노드(키워드)들이 산발적으로 연결되어 있다는 것을 의미하며, 클러스터링 지수가 높다는 것은 해당 키워드 네트워크 내 노드, 즉 키워드들이 각각의 커뮤니티로 매우 긴밀하게 연결되어 있음을 나타낸다. 둘째, 특허 키워드 네트워크도 다른 지식네트워크와 마찬가지로 명확한 멱함수 분포를 따른다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 이는 기존에 활발히 연구, 활용되어 많은 연결고리를 갖고 있는 특허개념(키워드)수록 지속적으로 다른 연구자들에 의해 선택되고 이 키워드를 바탕으로 새로운 키워드들이 연결되어서 이들 키워드간의 조합으로 새로운 기술이 발명된다는 것이다. 셋째, 특허가 개발될 때 특정 분야에 유입된 키워드 중 새로운 링크가 생긴 키워드의 대부분이 기존에 연결되어 있던 커뮤니티 내의 키워드들과 결합되어 새로운 특허 개념을 구성한다는 사실을 발견하였다. 이러한 사실은 단기(4년) 장기(10년) 두 기간 모두 동일하게 나타났다. 나아가 본 연구에서 제시한 방법론을 통해 도출된 특허 키워드 조합 정보를 활용하면 미래에 어떤 개념들이 합쳐져서 새로운 특허 단위로 만들어 질지 가늠해볼 수 있고, 새로운 특허를 개발할 때 참고할 수 있는 유용한 정보로 활용할 수 있다.

This research proposes the use of a patent analysis methodology that can suggest promising technology in the ICT sector at the micro-level. This approach identifies core patents from the technology field, groups them as research frontiers (RFs), and develops a visualized network based on the citing relationships to monitor the relationship among RFs. In addition, it calculates a "promising index" based on the growth potential, impact, and marketability of patents to ultimately derive promising RFs. To illustrate the proposed approach, this research presents analysis results for a chosen area, which is the user interface and user experience (UI/UX) technology field. By proposing promising technological fields at the micro-level, the proposed methodology will serve as a useful decision-making support tool in selecting R&D projects, technology planning, and determining technology policy direction.

As basic research to develop HEV and EV agricultural field machinery, the present study analyzes the technical trend of electric agricultural field machinery through product analysis, paper analysis, and patent analysis concerning HEV and EV in the automobile, construction machinery, and agricultural machinery sectors. For product analysis, the homepages of companies in these sectors were consulted to analyze the number of products of each company. For paper analysis, key words related to HEV and EV were selected, a search formula was drawn up, and articles search sites were consulted. And for patent analysis too, key words were selected and then a search formula was drawn up to examine published patent applications or registered patent applications, and trends were analyzed by structure, country, and year. The number of HEV and EV products were 17 in the automobile area, 8 in construction machinery, and 4 in agricultural machinery. Notably, in the agricultural machinery area, all HEV and EV products were from advanced companies overseas. In terms of papers, papers published in the past 5 years were searched and 33,195 papers were from the automobile area, 3,806 were from construction machinery, and 2,687, the fewest papers, were from the agricultural machinery area. A search of patents in the electric drive technology area in Korea, USA, and Japan, and Europe showed 1,927 valid patents, with 1,120 in Japan, 497 in USA, 193 in Korea, and 117 in Europe. Analysis of the trend of research on electric agricultural field machinery by product, paper, and patent shows the development of HEV and EV technology in Korea is insufficient compared to USA, Japan, and Europe, which means rapid technological development is needed.

This study attempts to explore the difference of innovation sources between high-tech industry and mid-tech industry through patent analysis. After extracting 119 corporates, commonly surveyed in 2007 HCCP(Human Capital Corporate Panel) and 2005~2006 Korea Innovation Survey, their patents applied for the Korean Intellectual Property Office in 2007~2012 are analysed mainly through negative binomial regression model. Analytical results shows that external information source could be opposite effects to technological innovation depending on technological level and industrial characteristics. The current results are still bounded in the statistical significance, mainly due to the limited observations and information.

Background: The purpose of this study was to utilize text network analysis and topic modeling to identify interconnected relationships among keywords present in patent information related to oral health, and subsequently extract latent topics and visualize them. By examining key keywords and specific subjects, this study sought to comprehend the technological trends in oral health-related innovations. Furthermore, it aims to serve as foundational material, suggesting directions for technological advancement in dentistry and dental hygiene. Methods: The data utilized in this study consisted of information registered over a 20-year period until July 31st, 2023, obtained from the patent information retrieval service, KIPRIS. A total of 6,865 patent titles related to keywords, such as "dentistry," "teeth," and "oral health," were collected through the searches. The research tools included a custom-designed program coded specifically for the research objectives based on Python 3.10. This program was used for keyword frequency analysis, semantic network analysis, and implementation of Latent Dirichlet Allocation for topic modeling. Results: Upon analyzing the centrality of connections among the top 50 frequently occurring words, "method," "tooth," and "manufacturing" displayed the highest centrality, while "active ingredient" had the lowest. Regarding topic modeling outcomes, the "implant" topic constituted the largest share at 22.0%, while topics concerning "devices and materials for oral health" and "toothbrushes and oral care" exhibited the lowest proportions at 5.5% each. Conclusion: Technologies concerning methods and implants are continually being researched in patents related to oral health, while there is comparatively less technological development in devices and materials for oral health. This study is expected to be a valuable resource for uncovering potential themes from a large volume of patent titles and suggesting research directions.
