The productive forces of innovative development factors economic modelling

Abstract:  

The model of the significant innovative development factors of productive forces in the Russian regions is offered. Considering innovations as a key factor of economic growth, in this paper we identify main instruments stimulating innovative activity in Russian regions. Since the number of potential factors of innovative activity and respective hypotheses is large, the process of model selection becomes a crucial part of the research implementation. A new efficient solution to this problem is suggested, applying optimization heuristics. The model selection is based on information criteria and the Sargan test within the framework of a log-linear panel data model.
