The reciprocity factors to technological innovation activities

Abstract

Abstract: Many scholars usually illustrate the function of technological innovation by analyzing technological input-output relationship. However, with the different from current researches taking patent as an input indicator, the patents are classified into applying and granting patents and they are attributed to the input factor and output factor, respectively. Based on that, the relationship between the different elements in technological innovation is studied. Researches show that the elements, such as R&D funds, patent, and technology transfer could not totally regard as endogenous variables. By using the method of Kalman filter, an indicator to measure unitary technological innovation level could be found. After that, the progress of technological innovation in the economic development in China is precisely described, and following conclusion that the innovation activities in China are now falling into a bottleneck is drawn.

Key words: technological innovation, patent application, patent-granting, R&D fund, technology transformation
