企业在多大程度上依赖于基础科学的研发工作？一些学者试图回答这个问题和相关的问题，但由于难以将专利中的非结构化参考文献与已发表的论文相匹配，进展受到阻碍。我们介绍了一个开放获取的参考文献数据集，这些参考文献来自自1800年以来在全球范围内授予的专利的首页。每个专利论文链接都被分配了一个置信度得分，该得分在随机样本中由假阴性与假阳性来表征。所有的匹配都可以在http://relianceonscience.org上下载。我们概述了这些新数据所支持的战略研究的几种途径。一些学者试图回答这个问题和相关的问题，但由于难以将专利中的非结构化参考文献与已发表的论文相匹配，进展受到阻碍。我们介绍了一个开放获取的参考文献数据集，这些参考文献来自自1800年以来在全球范围内授予的专利的首页。每个专利论文链接都被分配了一个置信度得分，我们手动检查这些置信度得分的随机样本，以估计两者的覆盖率（即，在我们应该找到的匹配中，我们找到了多少百分比）和准确性（即，我们发现的匹配，有多少百分比是正确的）。我们概述了这些新数据支持的战略研究的几种途径。
Research summaryTo what extent do firms rely on basic science in their R&D efforts? Several scholars have sought to answer this and related questions, but progress has been impeded by the difficulty of matching unstructured references in patents to published papers. We introduce an open‐access dataset of references from the front pages of patents granted worldwide to scientific papers published since 1800. Each patent‐paper linkage is assigned a confidence score, which is characterized in a random sample by false negatives versus false positives. All matches are available for download at http://relianceonscience.org. We outline several avenues for strategy research enabled by these new data.Managerial summaryTo what extent do firms rely on basic science in their R&D efforts? Several scholars have sought to answer this and related questions, but progress has been impeded by the difficulty of matching unstructured references in patents to published papers. We introduce an open‐access dataset of references from the front pages of patents granted worldwide to scientific papers published since 1800. Each patent‐paper linkage is assigned a confidence score, and we check a random sample of these confidence scores by hand in order to estimate both coverage (i.e., of the matches we should have found, what percentage did we find) and accuracy (i.e., of the matches we found, what percentage are correct). We outline several avenues for strategy research enabled by these new data.
