Hello, I'm trying to create a complex query. My objective is to find patents that cite at least three patents from different technological fields.

Re: Help with counting backward citation

Hi, thanks for your comment. I thought about the german concept of IPC classification. But the other aspect of my comment is the question whether it is possible to select patents with three backward citations (yes first query) and three different technology fields (this is the unknown part of the qu...

Re: Database errors in the field nb_applicants

Hi Geert, thanks for your reply. This query was a nice hint but I have to minimaly modify it. In the subquery I just looked at the relevant entries of the attribute psn_sector.

Re: Database errors in the field nb_applicants

Hi Geert, thanks for your reply. Since last week I've got an access to the PATSTAT 2016 autumn version and I tried to use the psn_sector attribute.

Re: Database errors in the field nb_applicants

Database errors in the field nb_applicants
