Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GETTING STARTED WITH PATENT SEARCHING Do you wish to discover the methods of investigation for patent search? Do you want to know how to trademark your company? This book serves as a condensed version of all you need to know. A patent search is a search of issued patents and published patent applications for inventions that might be considered important "prior art" references when applying for a patent. The prior art is anything in the public domain, patented or not patented, that may determine whether an invention is novel or not. You can begin your patent search by choosing a relevant keyword if the tool you are using offers more advanced search features such as semantic search. Such features may help to identify your search intent and can provide you with the most accurate search results. It is often the first thing that is done in the invention startup process. The purpose of a patent search is to determine how different an invention is from what already exists in the prior art. It will not tell you if your invention infringes someone else's patent. How to File a Patent: Search the United States Patent and Trademark Office Find a patent attorney Determine what type of patent you need File a provisional patent application Become a Registered eFiler Gather information for your formal application Complete and review your formal application.

Download or read book Current Challenges in Patent Information Retrieval written by Mihai Lupu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-24 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition provides a systematic introduction to the work and views of the emerging patent-search research and innovation communities as well as an overview of what has been achieved and, perhaps even more importantly, of what remains to be achieved. It revises many of the contributions of the first edition and adds a significant number of new ones. The first part “Introduction to Patent Searching” includes two overview chapters on the peculiarities of patent searching and on contemporary search technology respectively, and thus sets the scene for the subsequent parts. The second part on “Evaluating Patent Retrieval” then begins with two chapters dedicated to patent evaluation campaigns, followed by two chapters discussing complementary issues from the perspective of patent searchers and from the perspective of related domains, notably legal search. “High Recall Search” includes four completely new chapters dealing with the issue of finding only the relevant documents in a reasonable time span. The last (and with six papers the largest) part on “Special Topics in Patent Information Retrieval” covers a large spectrum of research in the patent field, from classification and image processing to translation. Lastly, the book is completed by an outlook on open issues and future research. Several of the chapters have been jointly written by intellectual property and information retrieval experts. However, members of both communities with a background different to that of the primary author have reviewed the chapters, making the book accessible to both the patent search community and to the information retrieval research community. It also not only offers the latest findings for academic researchers, but is also a valuable resource for IP professionals wanting to learn about current IR approaches in the patent domain.
