Abstract

Researchers have long been interested in the transportation industry, recognizing its significant impact on human societies. Specifically, the automobile industry and its components have garnered special attention due to the evolving nature of transportation technologies. With this in mind, this study aims to explore the current and future technologies within the tire industry as a technological-based component of the automotive industry. Additionally, the research examines the key topics, leaders of technology, and strategies of technology-owning companies in these topics. To carry out this investigation, we employed a combination of methods including patent analysis and topic modeling. The selection of leading technology companies was based not only on the number of patents but also on the impact and quality of their patents, which was carefully evaluated. By leveraging these methods and results, tire companies and other industries can gain a competitive edge in technology, acquire insights into the current and future market share of leading companies, and develop effective roadmaps for their own advancement.
