Abstract—Scientific research is a systematic creativity work
for enhancing knowledge and inventing new technologies. Thus,
it is of great significance to evaluate scientific research
performance from the perspective of knowledge flow. This
paper presents an evaluation method of scientific research
performance which matches the scientific research mission
about using existing knowledge to create new knowledge, and
provides a new perspective on multi-angle evaluation of
scientific research performance. The knowledge flow network
formed by citation relationships between literatures will be
constructed firstly. Based on this citation network, the process
in which literature knowledge is acquired, absorbed, rationally
criticized and new knowledge is created will be as an evaluation
criterion. Then, both knowledge utilization rate indicator and
knowledge net utilization rate indicator will be established.
Index Terms—Citation knowledge flow, bibliometric analysis,
scientific research performance, knowledge utilization rate,
knowledge net utilization rate.
