Decomposing regional patenting rates: how the composition factor confounds the rate factor
TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative measure is constructed that empirically identifies a plausible "inventive class" and does not confound the patenting rate with irrelevant information, allowing the decomposition of overall patenting rates into a compositional factor and a rate factor which leads to a more meaningful regional comparison of patenting productivity.
