Table 1
Selection of variables and measurement.
| Variables | Name | Code | Meaning | Measurement |
| Dependent variable | Number of patent applications | | The output of the main innovation outcome, i.e., innovation performance | Number of patent applications in the current period | Intermediate centrality | | The degree of centrality of the subject in the network | The probability that a subject is on the shortest path between any two other subjects in the network |
| Independent variables | Structural hole limit system | | The extent to which the subject occupies the position of the “bridge” | Subjects in the network limit system | Intensity of cooperation | | Average number of times a subject cooperates with other subjects | Sum of the total number of point degrees of the nodes of the network without deduplication/node degrees | Innovation activity | | The extent to which subjects are active in innovation in the network | Number of times the subject of innovation appeared between 1985 and 2015 |
| Control variables | GRP per capita | | The level of economic development of the city where the innovation subject is located | Total regional output/total population | R&D investment intensity | | The level of technological development of the city where the innovation subject is located | Science and technology expenditure in government expenditure/GRP |
