Russian regions scientific and technological security monitoring: multi-criteria analysis

The article continues works series devoted to Russian regions’ scientific and technological security monitoring. We’ve developed and verified an approach to Federation’s subjects scientific and technical security multi-criteria assessment. This approach is based Two methods are basic for this specific approach: regions’ Pareto efficiency ranking and its hierarchical cluster analysis. The proposed tools are aimed at information analysis and processing processes improvement during decision-making. It is also instruments for country’s regions scientific and technological security monitoring. Presented methods verification results made it possible to draw a conclusion about regions’ significant stratification in terms of scientific and technological security level. As a multi-criteria assessment part, it was found that in the considered dynamic range, regions generally retain their positions, and Federation subjects transitions within the ranks are insignificant. Should be noted that there is a tendency to ranks equalization and their total number reduce. Meanwhile, hierarchical clustering made it possible to divide country’s regions totality into two clusters. The first cluster includes subjects with scientific and technological security relatively favorable level. The second one consists of regions with relatively low scientific and technical security indicators values. Presented approach further development regards more detailed indicators analysis indicators changes predictive models construction and cause-and-effect relationships identification.

Keywords: scientific and technological security, multicriteria analysis, Pareto ranking, hierarchical clustering, monitoring.
