dc.description.abstractThis paper presents a comprehensive analysis of 12,724 projects approved by TUBITAK (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye) between 2008 and 2022. The research employs advanced text mining techniques, including N-gram-based text categorization, TF-IDF, and PMI scores, to uncover trends in research and development activities in Türkiye. The analysis begins by examining the distribution of projects across years and regions, then focuses on five leading sectors: Information Technologies, Automotive, Machinery Manufacturing, Electrical-Electronics, and Defense Industry. The study identifies prominent themes and their evolution over time for each sector, thereby illuminating the dynamics of Türkiye's innovation ecosystem. The results highlight sector-specific trends as well as cross-sector common themes such as artificial intelligence, mobile applications, and sustainable technologies. This research provides valuable insights for policymakers, researchers, and industry stakeholders in shaping Türkiye's scientific and technological development. By leveraging text mining techniques on a large corpus of project data, the study offers a data-driven perspective on the changing landscape of innovation in Türkiye, contributing to a better understanding of national research priorities and emerging technological focus areas. © Author(s) 2024.
