  • The purpose of this study is to compare the differences in national R&D research outcomes in science and technology according to gender. For this purpose, the analysis was conducted by mapping WoS SCI(E) papers from 1990to 2018 and NTIS R&D papers from 2007 t0 2016. As a result of examining the differences in research achievements in science and technology according to gender based on three bibliometic indicators - average Times cited, Time-lag, and Impact factor - we found that the overall topography of research achievement was still male-centered, and the differences in the main research area between male and female were also very prominent. On the other hand, in top 10 research areas, it was confirmed that female researchers' outcomes were higher in the number of Times cited and Impact factor.

  • Studies have shown that research and development has positively impacted the upbringing of construction industry. However, its economic effect has not yet been fully investigated. This study develops an economic effect analysis model for R&D performance. In-depth interview and review of the literature produced a total of 11 performance indicators that considered the public characteristics of construction industry. A case study which involved the Expressway & Transportation Research Institute was conducted in order to verify the proposed model. The result showed that the return on investment of the institute was 3.3 times of the R&D investment. The proposed model is expected to help researchers analyze an economic effect analysis model for R&D performance.

  • The Comprehensive in vitro Proarrhythmic Assay(CiPA) project was launched for solving the hERG assay problem of being classified as high-risk groups even though they are low-risk drugs due to their high sensitivity. CiPA presented a protocol to predict drug toxicity using physiological data calculated based on the in-silico model. in this study, features calculated through the in-silico model are analyzed for correlation of changing action potential in the near future, and features are verified through predictive performance according to drug datasets. Using the O'Hara Rudy model modified by Dutta et al., Pearson correlation analysis was performed between 13 features(dVm/dtmax, APpeak, APresting, APD90, APD50, APDtri, Capeak, Caresting, CaD90, CaD50, CaDtri, qNet, qInward) calculated at 100 pacing, and between dVm/dtmax_repol calculated at 1,000 pacing, and linear regression analysis was performed on each of the 12 training drugs, 16 verification drugs, and 28 drugs. Indicators showing high coefficient of determination(R2) in the training drug dataset were qNet 0.93, AP resting 0.83, APDtri 0.78, Ca resting 0.76, dVm/dtmax 0.63, and APD90 0.61. The indicators showing high determinants in the validated drug dataset were APDtri 0.94, APD90 0.92, APD50 0.85, CaD50 0.84, qNet 0.76, and CaD90 0.64. Indicators with high coefficients of determination for all 28 drugs are qNet 0.78, APD90 0.74, and qInward 0.59. The indicators vary in predictive performance depending on the drug dataset, and qNet showed the same high performance of 0.7 or more on the training drug dataset, the verified drug dataset, and the entire drug dataset.

  • In this paper, numerical values are derived using topic modeling among data-based evaluation methodologies discussed by various research institutes. In addition, we will focus on the ICT field to see if there is a difference in policy perception between the national R&D project and standing committee. First, we create model for classifying ICT documents by learning R&D project data using HAN model. And we perform LDA topic modeling analysis on ICT documents classified by applying the model, compare the distribution with the topics derived from the R&D project data and proceedings of standing committees. Specifically, a total of 26 topics were derived. Also, R&D project data had professionally topics, and the standing committee-discuss relatively social and popular issues. As the difference in perception can be numerically confirmed, it can be used as a basic study on indicators that can be used for future policy or project evaluation.

  • This study draws implications by surveying and analyzing performance evaluation cases in Korea and overseas, and analyzes qualitative and quantitative performance evaluation indexes and evaluation models that fit the national R & D performance evaluation system through analysis of patent creation performance data or company status data. Also, in order to apply this to a specific group of companies with excellent exports and technical skills, we will conduct a case study on the performance analysis of patent strategy support projects based on the results of the survey. Although this study has some limitations in developing performance evaluation indicators due to the limited scope of business or business characteristics of the patent strategy support project, the qualitative evaluation system can be reviewed through previous studies and domestic and overseas case studies. Due to the problem of accessing and collecting data related to the performance of the support project, there is a limitation that performance analysis cannot be performed at a sufficient level. Nevertheless, after the completion of R&D support projects and patent strategy support projects, follow-up performance analysis can be performed through follow-up surveys. It is expected to be possible.

  • Various indicators representing skin characteristics such as skin hydration, sebum excretion rate, lightness, and pH are different depending on environmental and genetic factors. However, they are absolute skin indicators and are different from skin characteristics that a person recognizes. Based on this fact, many recent studies have been mainly conducting researches on perspective changes according to changes of absolute skin. This study was proposed not only to find out differences on skin colors of asian by nations, but also to find out whether there was any difference in skin brightness they perceive depending on actual skin color changing. As many as 410 subjects of three Asia nations were participated in this study, and investigated their responses on skin brightness using questionnaire, which was answered their skin color in three different levels. It was also were analyzed how actual skin brightness were changed depending on their perceived skin color changes of subjects. There was a trend showing that the brightness of the actual skin color was increased when participants felt their skin color got brighter regardless of their nationalities. However, there were some differences in color between perceived color and actual color. In addition, there was a different aspect by nations in changes of skin redness and skin yellowness. In conclusion, it was revealed that factors which help people to perceive their own skin brightness were not based on absolute skin brightness, but on different criteria depending on where they are from.

  • The purpose of this study is to propose a scientific performance evaluation framework for measuring and managing the overall outcome of complex types of projects that are linked to public demand-based commercialization, such as information system projects and public procurement, in integrated national R&D projects. In the case of integrated national R&D projects that involve multiple research institutes to form a single final product, and in the case of demand-based demonstration and commercialization of the project results, the existing evaluation system that evaluates performance based on the short-term outputs of the detailed tasks comprising the R&D project has limitations in evaluating the mid- and long-term effects and practicality of the integrated research products. (Moreover, as the paradigm of national R&D projects is changing to a mission-oriented one that emphasizes efficiency, there is a need to change the performance evaluation of national R&D projects to focus on the effectiveness and practicality of the results.) In this study, we propose a performance evaluation framework from a structural perspective to evaluate the completeness of each national R&D project from a practical perspective, such as its effectiveness, beyond simple short-term output, by utilizing the Hourglass model. In particular, it presents an integrated performance evaluation framework that links the top-down and bottom-up approaches leading to Tool-System-Service-Effect according to the structure of R&D projects. By applying the proposed detailed evaluation indicators and performance evaluation frame to actual national R&D projects, the validity of the indicators and the effectiveness of the proposed performance evaluation frame were verified, and these results are expected to provide academic, policy, and industrial implications for the performance evaluation system of national R&D projects that emphasize efficiency in the future.

  • In this study, the characterization of projects and analysis of R&D products and commercialization performances were done to serve some implications on the policy decisions related to the commercialization of R&D in marine and fisheries sector. A total of 212 R&D projects with 144 ones for marine and 68 for fisheries performed for 5 years, from 2010 to 2014, were sorted and analyzed on the respect of government budget, main performing body, and research period. The R&D result and commercialization performance were substituted to quantitative indicators, such as the number of published papers, the number of patents, the amount of the technology royalty, the number of technology transfers, and the improvement of public service, which were subjects to be analysed. Based on the results, this study suggests the policy implications for the success of national R&D program; 1) diversifying the main performing body, 2) operating the system for sharing research infrastructures among researchers, 3) introducing the adaptable R&D program management, 4) expending the portion of grants without detailed requests for proposal, and 5) leaning the investigation of R&D budgets on projects focusing on the practicalization and commercialization.

  • Software is not only control and operational technology of computer, various system, and machines, but also knowledge handling and service technology for production, storage, and utilization of digital information. Many nations invest enormous budget in SW R&D to acquire core and original technology, and commercialize. To select and concentrate on SW R&D investment by segmenting diverse functions and element technologies consisting of sw technology, introduction of evaluation and analysis methodology on technology level utilizing reliable patent and bibliometrics is demanded these days. The purpose of this paper is to suggest some analysis frameworks of national technology level in the field of sw technology. Another practical purpose is to verify sw technology policy using qualitative and quantative indicators of patent and bibliometrics.

  • As the value and role of intellectual property increases in our knowledge-based economy, countries around the world have exerted various efforts to secure, utilize, and protect their intellectual property. The present study diagnoses the level of IP infrastructure of major OECD countries and analyzes their characteristics and impact. According to the diagnosis, the US, Switzerland, and Germany form a leading group followed by the mid-level countries of Korea, Ireland, Australia, and France, with Spain and Italy in the bottom group. In contrast to Korea's competitiveness in S&T and R&D infrastructures, its competitiveness in IP infrastructure is lower than the OECD average. This is thought to be due to Korea's IP infrastructure being hastily formed under the influence of international pressures rather than having been gradually built up by internal needs. A TFP analysis of the impact of IP infrastructure on economic growth shows IP infrastructure positively influences economic growth. Though this analysis is limited due to inability to secure sufficient data and indicators, it is a useful guide for understanding the nature and key characteristics of IP infrastructure.
