Text mining supports decision making in Science, Technology & Innovation (ST&I) policy & management – e.g., competitive technical intelligence, R&D management, and research evaluation. Expanding and novel data bring both opportunities and challenges. Researchers, analysts, and decision makers need to track ST&I dynamics together with rapidly evolving economic & societal factors, validating the necessity of evidence-based foresight.
- “text analytics” is advancing sharply now as “intelligent bibliometrics” develops – i.e., applying Artificial Intelligence to analyses of ST&I text resources
- “evidence-based foresight” – increasing availability of multiple “large data” resources invites novel, powerful new forecasting capabilities
