Evaluating the patenting activities of pharmaceutical research organizations based on new technology indices

作者：

Highlights：

• We apply patent h-index and its variants to transgenic animal patents.

• Factor analysis identified three indices for evaluating R&D organization.

• The new indices are forward citation, impact per year, and patent family dimension.

• They represent productive capacity, patent commercialization speed, and effort.
