Citations with different levels of relevancy: Tracing the main paths of legal opinions

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (2014)

John S. Liu Hsiao‐Hui Chen Mei Hsiu‐Ching Ho Yuchen Li

This study explores the effect from considering citation relevancy in the main path analysis. Traditional citation‐based analyses treat all citations equally even though there can be various reasons and different levels of relevancy for one document to reference another. Taking the relevancy level into consideration is intuitively advantageous because it adopts more accurate information and will thus make the results of a citation‐based analysis more trustworthy. This is nevertheless a challenging task. We are aware of no citation‐based analysis that has taken the relevancy level into consideration. The difficulty lies in the fact that the existing patent or patent citation database provides no readily available relevancy level information. We overcome this issue by obtaining citation relevancy information from a legal database that has relevancy level ranked by legal experts. This paper selects trademark dilution, a legal concept that has been the subject of many lawsuit cases, as the target for exploration. We apply main path analysis, taking citation relevancy into consideration, and verify the results against a set of test cases that are mentioned in an authoritative trademark book. The findings show that relevancy information helps main path analysis uncover legal cases of higher importance. Nevertheless, in terms of the number of significant cases retrieved, relevancy information does not seem to make a noticeable difference.

Taiwan as a Regional Laboratory for Corporate Governance

Asian Survey (2015)

Claude Vincent John S. Liu

Taiwan is a regional laboratory for Anglo-American-style corporate governance; we examine it from legal, capital, labor, and management perspectives. Statistical analyses of Taiwanese-listed companies show that independent directorship reduces financial distress and improves information disclosure.

Autonomous Vehicle Technology Development: A Patent Survey Based on Main Path Analysis

2022 Portland International Conference on Management of Engineering and Technology (PICMET) (2019)

Rico L. T. Cho John S. Liu Mei Hsiu‐Ching Ho

This study surveys the patents on autonomous vehicles in a systematic and quantitative manner. Autonomous vehicle has been widely discussed recently due to the fast improvement in the related technologies. Aside from investigating the patent owners who are participating in development of autonomous vehicles, we apply main path analysis to uncover the technology developing trajectory. Three major findings are highlighted for further discussion: communication system will be further developed to pursue vehicle-to-everything, the perception technologies will integrate artificial intelligent, and the vehicle makers will cooperate with ICT companies to develop autonomous vehicle. Monitoring these observations may help companies to evaluate their future directions on R&D management, IP management, and business strategy development for autonomous vehicle.

Herding of Corporate Directors in Taiwan

Emerging Markets Finance and Trade (2008)

John S. Liu Chyan Yang

Corporate directors can be said to herd when they sit together on not only one, but several company boards. Such herding is commonly called "multiple interlock" in the literature. This study analyzes the factors involved in director herding using a binary logistics regression model. Statistical analysis indicates that directors who control a large amount of effective assets in the corporate world, own a high percentage of equity in a company, or hold an inside management position are more likely to be involved in multiple firm interlocks. In other words, controlling shareholders and their associates are the main individuals involved in such interlocks. Finally, company financial performance is negatively related to multiple interlocks.

Exploring the knowledge diffusion trajectories for the VoIP research

I-Chiang Shih Liang-Chu Chen John S. Liu

Many businesses nowadays are migrating from traditional enterprise telephone PSTN to VoIP because it combines voice, data, and video into a single, easy to manage service such that users are able to strongly secure their data. Research related to VoIP studies focuses on different issues from time to time. This study applies an integrated approach of main path analysis to explore the development and knowledge diffusion trajectories of the VoIP literature. We investigate thousands of papers in VoIP and visualize the knowledge diffusion trajectory of VoIP research via a social network analysis tool.

The development of pandemic outbreak communication: A literature review from the response enactment perspective

Knowledge Management Research & Practice (2021)

Chen-Hao Huang Tzu‐Chuan Chou John S. Liu

In December 2019, the novel coronavirus 2019-nCoV, which has caused the latest public health emergency of international concern, began to spread with exponential speed around the whole world. To further the understanding of how media technologies contribute to knowledge management for a pandemic outbreak communication (POC), this paper, through Key-route main path analysis (MPA), investigates the research literature on POC. This paper found that studies on the main paths mainly focus on public cognition at the beginning and later the attention is transferred to how to fight against the outbreak and thus reveals the changing role of media technologies in knowledge management. To examine the dynamic structure of communication between government and public, this study relies on the "enactment" perspective to shed light on how the government makes sense of the media technologies and the circumstances of the pandemic to further knowledge management in POC.
