A Signature Approach to Patent Classification
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a document signature approach to patent classification. Automatic patent classification is a challenging task because of the fast growing number of patent applications filed every year and the complexity, size and nested hierarchical structure of patent taxonomies. In our proposal, the classification of a target patent is achieved through a k-nearest neighbour search using Hamming distance on signatures generated from patents; the classification labels of the retrieved patents are weighted and combined to produce a patent classification code for the target patent. The use of this method is motivated by the fact that intuitively document signatures are more efficient than previous approaches for this task that considered the training of classifiers on the whole vocabulary feature set. Our empirical experiments also demonstrate that the combination of document signatures and k-nearest neighbours search improves classification effectiveness, provided that enough data is used to generate signatures.

One of the basic problems in signature verification is variability and differences apparent on patterns of signature even for an individual. Signature segmentation to basic components, in addition to the access to the stable features, the hidden differences are revealed between genuine and forgery patterns. In this paper, signature patterns of two-dimensional are segmented by using dominant poi...

In this paper a new patch-based digital signature (DS) is proposed. The proposed approach similar to steganography methods hides the secure message in a host image. However, it uses a patch-based key to encode/decode the data like cryptography approaches. Both the host image and key patches are randomly initialized. The proposed approach consists of encoding and decoding algorithms. The encodin...

In this paper, we propose an approach for automatic generation of novel intrusion signatures. This approach can be used in the signature-based Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDSs) and for the automation of the process of intrusion detection in these systems. In the proposed approach, first, by using several one-class classifiers, the profile of the normal network traffic is established. ...
