Research on determination of weaknesses of research quality management in universities

Abstract

At present, the research on college scientific quality management system was only limited to effectiveness evaluation, while the quantitative determination of the weaknesses was less considered. It would cause that the persuasion of research quality management was not strong. Based on this situation, the model determining weaknesses was established based on extendable optimal degree. Through the introduction of eligible degree, learn the principle determining the number of principal components in the principal component analysis, the formula for calculating the cumulative contribution rate of weak degree of the index was proposed. Numerical example shows that the weaknesses of the quality could be determined scientifically. Finally, the application prospects of the method were looked in related fields. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
