Technologies at a very early stage of development that could impact the future
The report presents a list of 75 individual weak signals in science and technology development in 2020. In addition, 4 clusters of weak signals have also been detected and are reported. These early signs of emerging technologies or products were detected using text mining, clustering techniques and scientometrics indicators applied on a corpus of peer-reviewed scientific publications.
A dashboard is at the disposal of the reader to further explore the weak signals:
