Abstract

This study identified smart manufacturing technologies using patent and topic modeling, and compared the technology development trends in countries such as the United States, Japan, Germany, China, and South Korea. To this purpose, this study collected patents in the United States and Europe between 1991 and 2020, processed patent abstracts, and identified topics by applying latent Dirichlet allocation model to the data. As a result, technologies related to smart manufacturing are divided into seven categories. At a global level, it was found that the proportion of patents in 'data processing system' and 'thermal/fluid management' technologies is increasing. Considering the fact that South Korea has relative competitiveness in thermal/fluid management technologies related to smart manufacturing, it would be a successful strategy for South Korea to promote smart manufacturing in heavy and chemical industry. This study is significant in that it overcomes the limitations of quantitative technology level evaluation proposed a new methodology that applies text mining.

본 연구는 스마트제조 관련 국내·외 특허 데이터와 토픽모델링 방법을 활용하여 스마트 제조 관련 기술의 세부 영역을 식별하고 해당 영역에서 미국, 일본, 독일, 중국, 한국 등 주요국의 기술 개발 동향을 비교하였다. 이를 위해 1991년부터 2020년 사이에 미국과 유럽에서 출원된 특허를 수집하고 특허 초록을 가공한 후, LDA 모형을 적용해 토픽을 식별하였다. 연구 결과, 스마트제조 관련 기술의 세부 영역은 크게 7개로 구분되며 글로벌 차원에서는 최근 '데이터 처리 시스템 관련 기술'과 '열·유체 관리 기술'의 기술 개발 비중이 상당히 높아지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 주요국과 한국의 기술 개발 동향을 비교한 결과, '열·유체 관리 기술' 분야에서 상대적인 강점이 있다는 점을 고려하면 국내 주력산업인 중화학 제조업과 연계한 스마트제조 관련 연구개발 및 관련 산업의 육성 추진 전략이 효과적일 것으로 보인다. 본 연구는 기존 정성적 기술 수준 평가의 한계를 극복하고, 텍스트마이닝 기법을 적용한 기술 역량 평가 방법론을 제안하였다는 측면에서 의의가 있다.
