Abstract

How to reasonably and effectively evaluate the national innovation performance of science has been a major concern for government, research institutions, and academia. By using scale-independent indicators, the performance of science innovation under the influence of scale effects is explored from international perspective. It shows that the increases of GDP, R&D expenditure, etc. have a non-linear impact on the performance of science innovation. Furthermore, the relative performance of the Chinese science innovation system is evaluated, and the relevant policy implication is also concluded.

Key words
