Abstract:Technology convergence shows the application status of a certain technology in different fields, and technology development opportunities can be better found by using technology convergence prediction. Taking quantum information technology as the research object, a co-occurrence matrix is constructed based on patent data. The co-occurrence network is used to analyze and display the development status of technology, and the similarity index with high prediction accuracy in link prediction is selected to predict the potential technology convergence. It is found that the convergence of quantum information technology at different stages of development is generally stable with small fluctuations. The overall development of technology convergence in the field of quantum information is relatively stable, and the network structure of technology co-occurrence is gradually stable, but the development balance in different technical fields needs to be improved. Based on the analysis results, suggestions on the development of quantum information technology are put forward from the three levels of government, technology research and development and enterprises.
