Skill: Funding Trend Forecaster

ID: 200 Version: 1.0.0 Author: OpenClaw Agent License: MIT

Overview

Funding Trend Forecaster is an intelligent analysis tool that uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology to analyze awarded project abstracts from major global research funding agencies (NIH, NSF, Horizon Europe) and predict funding preference shift trends for the next 3-5 years.

Features

• Multi-source Data Collection: Automatically fetches awarded project data from NIH, NSF, Horizon Europe
• NLP Deep Analysis: Uses advanced text mining techniques to extract topics, keywords, and research trends
• Trend Prediction Model: Predicts funding direction changes based on time series analysis and topic modeling
• Visualized Reports: Generates charts and trend reports for intuitive display of analysis results
• Field Segmentation: Categorized analysis by medicine, engineering, natural sciences, and other fields
