Integrating Generative Artificial Intelligence techniques into technology function matrix analysis

Journal article

1 volume.

This study proposes a novel method for automating the construction of technology-function matrices using generative artificial intelligence (GAI), specifically focusing on quantum technologies. By leveraging GAI to analyze International Patent Classification (IPC) definitions and benchmark reports, we developed a system that rapidly generates technology-function matrices, significantly reducing the time required for manual analysis. The method was applied to 2,399 quantum technology patents from 2023 to March 2024, covering four key areas: secure communications, computing, quantum simulators, and sensors. This approach not only aids government agencies in identifying new technological opportunities but also facilitates the industrialization of potential technologies. By combining GAI with established analytical frameworks, this study contributes to both the theoretical understanding and practical application of patent analysis in emerging fields.
