THE GLOBAL INNOVATION INDEX 2012 II: Data Tables
Weaknesses are all scores with percent
ranks lower than the 10th
smallest percent rank among the
84 indicators in a specific economy.
For three hard data series (7.3.1,
7.3.2, and 7.3.4), the raw data were
provided under the condition that
only the normalized scores be published
and therefore the original
value equals the normalized score.
For indicator 3.3.2, the range for
both measures is the same, [0, 100],
and therefore both measures are also
identical. In the case of five composite
indicators that were calculated
as percent ranks at the source
(indicators 1.3.1, 1.3.2, 1.3.3, 4.1.1,
and 4.2.1, singled out with ‘*r’), the
normalized scores correspond to the
percent ranks recalculated for the
sample of 141 economies times 100.
Details on the computation
methodology can be found in
Appendix IV, Technical Notes.
