论文摘要

本文研究了大型欧洲大都市地区科学合作的结构。它旨在将柏林组织之间的战略联盟视为具有高机构和部门多样性的特定案例。通过采用全球,区域和组织的方法,我们为这种多样性提供了定量,探索性和宏观的看法。我们使用1996 - 2017年至少一个位于柏林的组织的出版物数据。我们通过将其与经合组织学科的经验结果进行比较,进一步调查了柏林大学联盟(BUA)的四名成员。使用双方网络建模框架,我们能够超越团队科学和增加国际化的无争议趋势。我们的结果表明,BUA成员塑造了该地区科学合作的结构。但是,他们并不是在所有学科中掌握的合作。在某些学科中存在较大的分歧,例如农业科学和人文科学。只有医学和健康科学才具有凝聚力的区域内合作,这标志着2003年建立的区域合作的成功。我们解释了塑造观察到的趋势以及部门和区域内组的潜在因素。本文的主要方法论贡献是评估不同组织名称歧义技术的覆盖范围和准确性。

This paper examines the structure of scientific collaborations in a large European metropolitan area. It aims to identify strategic coalitions among organizations in Berlin as a specific case with high institutional and sectoral diversity. By adopting a global, regional and organization based approach we provide a quantitative, exploratory and macro view of this diversity. We use publications data with at least one organization located in Berlin from 1996-2017. We further investigate four members of the Berlin University Alliance (BUA) through their self-represented research profiles comparing it with empirical results of OECD disciplines. Using a bipartite network modeling framework, we are able to move beyond the uncontested trend towards team science and increasing internationalization. Our results show that BUA members shape the structure of scientific collaborations in the region. However, they are not collaborating cohesively in all disciplines. Larger divides exist in some disciplines e.g., Agricultural Sciences and Humanities. Only Medical and Health Sciences have cohesive intraregional collaborations which signals the success of regional cooperation established in 2003. We explain possible underlying factors shaping the observed trends and sectoral and intra-regional groupings. A major methodological contribution of this paper is evaluating coverage and accuracy of different organization name disambiguation techniques.
