Abstract
Society has been developed through analogue, digital, and smart era. Every technology is going through consistent changes and rapid developments. In this competitive society, R&D strategy establishment is significantly useful and helpful for improving technology competitiveness. A patent document includes technical and legal rights information such as title, abstract, description, claim, and patent classification code. From the patent document, a lot of people can understand and collect legal and technical information. This unique feature of patent can be quantitatively applied for technology analysis. This research paper proposes a methodology for extracting core technology and patents based on quantitative methods. Statistical analysis and social network analysis are applied to IPC codes in order to extract core technologies with active R&D and high centralities. Then, core patents are also extracted by analyzing citation and family information.
