Abstract
A new metric for Research Impact index is presented using only X-type and Y-type patent examiner citations cited during prosecution of patents where the patent family must have at least one US patent family member, where the citations are de-duplicated (to remove double counting associated with duplicate Patent Examiner citations from different jurisdictions when examining the same invention), and where the citations are for both non-patent publications and patent publications, where academics are, respectively, the authors and inventors. The quantitative outcomes are demonstrated using a 10-year dataset of 22,255 publications from the Faculty of Engineering and IT at the University of Technology Sydney.
