A clearer signal of how inventors learn & build on each other's ideas

A new study published in the prestigious Strategic Management Journal by EPFL researcher Gaétan de Rassenfosse and collaborators introduces a novel way to trace how knowledge flows among inventors and firms—by looking inside the body of patent documents. The authors show that “in-text” patent citations provide a much cleaner signal of where ideas originate than front-page citations, which researchers have traditionally relied on.

New paper presents method to scale up insights on building operation

Our new paper in Energy and Buildings [https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2025.116610], led by ETHOS PhD student Yufei Zhang, intrdoduces a new framework for inferring building operation characteristics from widely available smart meter data. The framework, OccuEMBED, simulateously infers occupancy levels and analyzes system-level load information for improved flexibility and operation at the urban scale.
