PRIME: A System for Multi-lingual Patent Retrieval
Shigeto Higuchi, Masatoshi Fukui, Atsushi Fujii, Tetsuya Ishikawa
TL;DR
PRIME is a multi-lingual patent retrieval system that translates queries, searches patents across languages, and enhances translation accuracy through patent family analysis, improving cross-language patent search efficiency.
Contribution
It introduces a system combining translation, clustering, and patent family analysis to improve multi-lingual patent retrieval.
Findings
Enhanced retrieval accuracy across languages
Improved translation quality via patent family extraction
Increased browsing efficiency for multi-lingual patent databases
Abstract
Given the growing number of patents filed in multiple countries, users are interested in retrieving patents across languages. We propose a multi-lingual patent retrieval system, which translates a user query into the target language, searches a multilingual database for patents relevant to the query, and improves the browsing efficiency by way of machine translation and clustering. Our system also extracts new translations from patent families consisting of comparable patents, to enhance the translation dictionary.
