Abstract This research develops a computer-supported ontology-based Technology Function Matrix (TFM) construction method, called eTFM, as an approach to reduce technology mining man-power and enhance the accuracy and consistency of patent analysis results. The paper addresses a rarely discussed issue of the TFM validation. The proposed validation approach compares the TFMs construction based on both on the domain ontology and the International Patent Classification (IPC) classes. The research demonstrates the methodology's practical applications using the patent analysis case of cyber physical system (CPS), an essential core technology enabling advanced manufacturing and Industry 4.0.

基于本体的技术功能矩阵的构建与验证：信息物理系统专利组合的技术挖掘

摘要 本研究开发了一种基于计算机支持的基于本体的技术函数矩阵（TFM）构建方法，称为eTFM，作为一种减少技术挖掘人力并提高专利分析结果的准确性和一致性的方法。该论文解决了一个很少讨论的 TFM 验证问题。提议的验证方法比较基于域本体和国际专利分类 (IPC) 类的 TFM 构造。该研究使用网络物理系统 (CPS) 的专利分析案例展示了该方法论的实际应用，这是支持先进制造和工业 4.0 的一项必不可少的核心技术。
