Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide an autonomous vehicle with an emergency escape mode. When fleeing a scene is critical, embodiments provide an AV that can operate in an emergency escape mode (EEM) to enable the AV to flee a scene, protecting its occupants. Typically, a passenger or operator invokes EEM in an AV when they are in imminent danger from criminal activity such as carjacking. A least resistance route can be computed to determine an escape route that provides for reduced chance of injury and/or increased probability of a successful escape.

Abstract: A method and system for analyzing a patent disclosure is disclosed. The method and system comprise a disclosure analysis and a separate claims analysis, such that each analysis may be performed independently. Missing and incorrect reference labels are identified within the disclosure. Antecedent basis and specification support are checked for the claim elements. Terms within the specification that do not have a reference number, but may require one, are identified, provided that they fit the profile of one of a set of particular lexical patterns.
