A simple index of innovation with complexity
作者：
Highlights：
• I study limitations of existing innovation indices.
• I propose two indices of innovation with complexity weights.
• I analyze empirically how size-dependent and size-independent innovation behave.
• New rankings are similar to mainstream index, differences in highly innovative countries.
• Size-dependent index is highly correlated with country size (GDP) and technology.
