Patent Analysis + AI: New Workflows for Better Efficiency and Collaboration

Andrew Klein – Principal Solution Consultant

As visualization and analysis increasingly become expected deliverables for patent information professionals, clients expect better and easier ways to gain insight from the patent literature. Join this presentation to hear more about Minesoft's developments making the work of patent analysis simpler: generative AI summarization, custom classifications and visualizing that data, and better collaboration and dashboard sharing capabilities.  

10:30 – Patsnap -

Categorizing and Visualizing Patents with LLMs

Carl Röst - Head of Consulting at Patsnap

In this session, we compare LLM-based categorization with ML and CPC-based methods. The emphasis is not on the chart type itself, but on how data is bucketed, labeled, and selected to make visualizations more actionable and relevant. The final output takes the form of one of Patsnap’s many visualization options, such as the tailored graph builder in Custom Analysis or 3D Landscaping. The real value comes from a fundamentally different approach to technology categorization at the start.

If time allows, we’ll also show a brand-new text-based alternative, or complement, to traditional patent portfolio graphs. These are designed to deliver the same quick, comparable insights in a new, more intuitive and easy-to-understand format.

11:00 AM – BizInt Smart Charts

Integrating and Cleaning Data Before Creating Reports and Visualizations

John Willmore - (BizInt, product development)

Matt Eberle - (BizInt, analytics and customer projects)

The path from search to a final report or visualization involves a number of steps: integrating results; categorizing; normalizing terminology; and, filtering content to produce your final work product. When you combine results from multiple searches, these challenges multiply. We will look at how to approach the process of preparing the data for your report, highlighting issues to keep in mind.
