On the Design of R&D Proposal Screening System

연구제안서 스크리닝 시스템의 설계에 관한 연구

As the size and scope of R&D investment explodes, the strategic and managerial importance of R&D proposal screening becomes highlighted. This point is particularly true for a large-scale research center that deals with multi-product and multi-technology R&D projects. Despite the importance, however, previous research has focused on project evaluation and selection stage. In this research, we propose a R&D proposal screening system. The main objective of the system is to filter R&D proposals that are identified to be duplications of past or existing projects. To this end, the algorithm of the system employs text mining, multivariate statistical method, and case-based reasoning.
