Abstract
Purpose
Machine learning (ML) analytical tools are increasingly being considered as an alternative quantitative methodology in management research. This paper proposes a new approach for uncovering the antecedents behind product and product–service innovation (PSI).
Design/methodology/approach
The ML approach is novel in the field of innovation antecedents at the country level. A sample of the Equatorian National Survey on Technology and Innovation, consisting of more than 6,000 firms, is used to rank the antecedents of innovation.
Findings
The analysis reveals that the antecedents of product and PSI are distinct, yet rooted in the principles of open innovation and competitive priorities.
Research limitations/implications
The analysis is based on a sample of Equatorian firms with the objective of showing how ML techniques are suitable for testing the antecedents of innovation in any other context.
Originality/value
The novel ML approach, in contrast to traditional quantitative analysis of the topic, can consider the full set of antecedent interactions to each of the innovations analyzed.
目的机器学习(ML)分析工具越来越多地被视为管理研究中的另一种定量方法。本文提出了一种揭示产品和产品服务创新(PSI)背后先决条件的新方法。研究结果分析表明,产品创新和产品服务创新的前因各不相同,但都植根于开放式创新和竞争优先原则。研究局限性/意义该分析以赤道地区的企业为样本,旨在说明 ML 技术如何适用于测试任何其他背景下的创新前因。原创性/价值与传统的定量分析相比,新颖的 ML 方法可以考虑到与所分析的每项创新相关的全套前因相互作用。
