Deriving technology intelligence from patents: Preposition-based semantic analysis

Using semantic technology in intelligence analysis

In this paper, we discuss how modern intelligence information management can be enhanced by using wiki and semantic web technology concepts, and how the fusion of these concepts, the semantic wiki, could be beneficial in helping decision-makers achieve situational awareness. The Semantic MilWiki, a semantic wiki prototype developed at the Swedish Defence Research Agency, is described, as well a...

Decomposition Analysis of Water Treatment Technology Patents

Water treatment technology development supports a steady, safe water supply. This study examines trends in water treatment technology innovations, using 227,365 patent granted data published from 1993 to 2016 as an indicator of changing research and development (R&D) priorities. To clarify changes in R&D priorities, we used a decomposition analysis framework that classified water treatment tech...

Classifying patents based on their semantic content

In this paper, we extend some usual techniques of classification resulting from a large-scale data-mining and network approach. This new technology, which in particular is designed to be suitable to big data, is used to construct an open consolidated database from raw data on 4 million patents taken from the US patent office from 1976 onward. To build the pattern network, not only do we look at...

Deriving Business Intelligence from Unstructured Data

The bulk of an organization’s data is unstructured that is the information that doesn't nicely fit into the typical data-processing format. It remains stored, but unanalysed. The information hidden or stored in unstructured data can play a critical role in making decisions, understanding and complying with regulations, and conducting other business functions. Integrating data stored in both str...
