  • Patent number: 11188205
    Abstract: A system includes a processor and a memory accessible to the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to provide a graphical user interface (GUI) including a plurality of user-selectable elements accessible by a user to select a patent strength calculator from a plurality of patent strength calculators, to edit a patent strength calculator, or to create a new patent strength calculator. The memory further stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to apply a selected patent strength calculator to a list of documents to determine a patent strength score for each patent of the list of documents.

  • Patent number: 10235455
    Abstract: A method for semantic searching includes receiving a user input including seed data and a semantic input at a search system. The method further includes automatically generating a filter set based on the user input, where the filter set including a plurality of documents that correspond to the seed data, and includes providing the filter set and the semantic input to a semantic search engine. The method also includes receiving a set of semantic search results from the semantic search engine based on the filter set and the semantic input. The set of semantic search results corresponds to a sub-set of the filter set that is semantically similar to the semantic input.
