Factor Modeling for Innovative Enterprises

The concept of a factor model based on frames is proposed. Factors are considered as slot values of the corresponding frames, which makes it possible to reduce the complexity of the developed model. The method for calculating the factor values by searching for the eigenvalues of the pairwise comparison matrices of the extent of the slots’ influence is proposed. A procedure allowing us to see the spread of the influence of factors along all possible paths of the influence graph is developed. As a result of the calculations, the most influential factors on the efficiency of the entire modeled system are determined. It is shown that it is possible to use the factor model for estimating the activity of innovative enterprises and for selecting an electronic flight bag (EFB) for the crew. This model can be used to forecast the development of complex dynamic systems with feedback, as well as for evaluating and making management decisions on the innovative activity of enterprises under conditions of weakly structured information.
