And then, it explored the construction and service of intelligent data facing S&T strategic decision-making scenarios in the form of typical cases. [Result/Conclusion] Intelligent data is the “scientific research data” in the process of intelligence research and service, and is the core production element of data-driven intelligence research and services, which mainly includes three types, namely, intelligence raw data, intelligence core data, and intelligence derived data. It condenses the precise understanding and insights of intelligence personnel on strategic needs, contains longterm accumulation and precipitation of intelligence service. Intelligent data is characterized by decision scenario orientation, embedded expert wisdom, rich data types, high intelligence value density and strong extensibility (SERVE). Its construction should be guided by decision-making scenarios and deeply coupled with decision-making problems. The construction process should follow the principle of experience to intelligence, explicit to implicit, and result-oriented to process-oriented, and the aim of data storage, methods reuse, evidence-based conclusion and knowledge transfer. It is carried out from four aspects: decision-making scenario preset and analysis, decision-making problem combination and solution formulation, intelligent data construction, intelligence service effectiveness feedback and data upgrading. Taking the construction of intelligent data in the context of S&T strategic decision-making such as export control and major S&T issues as examples, this paper expounds the idea of intelligent data construction and the service effect of strategic intelligence work driven by it.

    [Purpose/Significance] Traditional bibliometric indicators fail to capture the distinctions between the internal and external dimensions of academic collaboration networks. This paper introduces new metrics, such as external citations and the external h-index, for evaluating the external impact of scholarly collaboration networks, providing a foundation for a more authentic assessment of scholars’ academic influence. [Method/Process] Utilizing data from the American Physical Society, which includes 463,348 research papers and 234,086 disambiguated authors, this study extracts scholars’ ego-centric collaboration networks from the global network. It distinguishes between internal and external influences within these networks and introduces metrics such as the external citation count and the external h-index. These are tested for consistency against traditional bibliometric indicators and validated using data from prestigious physics awards such as the Nobel Prize, the Wolf Prize, and the Dirac Prize, to demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the external impact metrics. [Result/Conclusion] The study reveals significant disparities in the distribution of internal versus external influence within scholarly collaboration networks. The proposed external impact metrics introduced are highly consistent with traditional indicators. Convergence validity analysis shows that the external citation count and external h-index are more precise in identifying award-winning scholars compared to traditional metrics. These findings suggest that the external influence of collaboration networks reflects the true impact of scholars and plays a crucial role in academic achievements. The new metrics proposed here offer insightful implications for constructing future talent evaluation systems and breaking away from the “five only” criteria, providing a pathway for reform in academic assessments.

    [Purpose/Significance] This study proposes a hierarchical method for predicting the academic impact of papers by integrating their academic contributions and innovative value, based on the knowledge information extracted from the papers themselves. This method provides a more comprehensive assessment for the academic impact of articles. [Method/Process] To evaluate papers based on their content, it first selected conventional bibliometric indicators from the papers themselves. It then employed a prompt-based fine-tuning approach for a large model to extract academic contributions from the paper abstracts and developed metrics to represent the innovative value of the papers, including knowledge heterogeneity, knowledge outlier, knowledge frontier, and knowledge growth. These vectorized academic contributions, with bibliometric indicators and innovative value metrics, were used as inputs for a machine learning algorithm. The algorithm, optimized for performance, predicted the probability of a paper belonging to a high-impact category. Papers were then classified into ten levels (A-J) based on this probability. Finally, it used the SHAP interpretative framework to further analyze the influence and direction of academic contributions, innovative value, and bibliometric indicators on the impact of papers. [Result/Conclusion] The innovative value of a paper is the most important factor in predicting its academic impact, followed by academic contributions, with bibliometric indicators being the least important. The method proposed in this paper significantly enhances the accuracy of predicting the academic impact of papers.
