知识流动视角下的突破性成果早期识别研究
Research on the Early Identification Method of Breakthrough Achievements from the Perspective of Knowledge Flow
摘要
Abstract
Breakthrough research drives greatly advances in science and technology,and expands the boundaries of human knowledge.The early identification of such achievements is essential for forward-looking basic research plan-ning,the efficient allocation of scientific resources,and the formulation of national innovation strategies.However,ex-isting studies on the identification of breakthrough achievements often focus on a single-dimension rather than an inte-grated theoretical framework,and few adequately explore the early formation mechanisms of breakthrough achieve-ments.To address these limitations,this study proposes a theoretical framework that grounded in knowledge flow theo-ry,encompassing the process of knowledge input,knowledge production,and knowledge output.Based on this frame-work,a multi-dimensional early identification index system comprising 15 indicators is constructed by integrating fea-tures across the three stages.Multiple machine learning algorithms are then employed to build identification models,from which the most effective model is selected.Finally,SHAP is applied to interpret the model and to quantify the relative importance and contributions of different features in the identification process.The results indicate that:① the CatBoost model demonstrates the best performance in early identification.② three key early signals are particularly in-fluential,which are citations within five years,disruption index within five years in the knowledge output stage,and the author's highest academic achievement in the knowledge production stage.③ the model exhibits strong generaliza-tion capability when it verified by APS milestone papers.Overall,this study proposes a novel paradigm that integrates predictive accuracy with interpretability for the early identification of breakthrough research,and provides evidence for understanding its early formation mechanisms.关键词
