Unity: USPTO’s path from open data to AI

Category: Prescriptivec Analytics

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office "developed a cognitive assistant called Unity to use AI and machine learning to build on existing tools. “The tool is intended to allow patent examiners, through a single-click, to conduct a ‘federated search’ across patents, publications, non-patent literature, and images,” Iancu said in 2019. “And, through AI and machine learning-based algorithms, this would present to the examiner the results in the form of a ‘pre-search’ report.” Additionally, USPTO enabled employees to create beta tools that would use the agency’s data foundation, Beliveau said. “It was about the empowerment of employees to be able to homebrew things they found useful that they could share with their friends and neighbors through an analytics sandbox,” he said. “What it did was it actually opened the eyes of a lot of people in the building as well as some folks outside to the art of the possible.”"
