A new version of the user interface allows you to easily analyse the top 50 CPC symbols which could then be used as input for further elaborating your search strategy. To make this process even easier, classification definitions text are displayed alongside the statistical view.
You can also analyse IPC, FI, F-terms, applicants, cited applicants (applicants of cited patents), inventors and publishing offices.
Links to EP Register, PATENTSCOPE and Global Dossier are added for EP, WO and CN applications.

Dear Users,
When running statistics using IPC-like classification symbols (IPC, CPC or FI), you select the level of hierarchy you want to use and the results depend on you selection:

When running statistics using IPC-like classification symbols (IPC, CPC or FI), you select the level of hierarchy you want to use and the results depend on you selection:
- - At section (e.g. A), main class (e.g. A61), subclass (e.g. A61K) and group (e.g. A61K31) levels: all underlying main group and subgroup symbols of a given level are counted.
- - At main group level (e.g. A61K31/00): only main group symbols are counted, i.e. subgroup symbols of a given main group are not counted.
- - At subgroup level (e.g. A61K31/01): only subgroup symbols are counted.
Best regards,
Patrick
