EFFICIENCY EVALUATION OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION IN CHINA PROVINCE: BASED ON CONTEXT-DEPENDENT DEA AND TWO-STAGE DEA MODEL

摘要

It is particularly important for the government to make relevant policies on the basis of innovation performance scientifically and reasonably. In this paper, we define scientific and technological innovation of 30 provinces and municipalities in China as a two-stage process: technological input stage and technology marketization stage. On this basis, we use the two-stage network data envelopment analysis (DEA) model to calculate the stage efficiency and the overall efficiency of 30 provinces and municipalities in China. Further, according to the calculation results, using context-dependent DEA method, we divide 30 provinces and municipalities into five levels in macroscopic view. From the macro and micro perspectives, we explore the innovation efficiency in China province and give some policy proposals.
