Rapidly changing trends and anomalies related to competitors utilization map
Using Apple as an example of a competitor company/company of interest and Augmented Reality (AR; AR glass) as an example of a field, we provide rapidly changing and anomalies contents of competitors or companies of interest utilizing PatentPia GoldenCompass. If you click on the chain(link) markings associated with each item in the utilization map above, the example page will open in a new window.
Anomalies related to rapidly growing items
Common ways to check for rapidly growing items (keywords, technology subfields, companies, researchers, events, etc.) include.
i) Checking from a menu such as ‘Rising',
ii) by descending sorting on increase rate fields such as delta2Y, delta2Q, CAGR(5Y), CAGR(10Y), etc.
iii) How to **sort descending (desc) on time fields such as recent year, recent quarter, date, etc.
Rising keywords (of the company as a whole vs. a specific field of the company)
Rising keywords is the default sort by rising rank. Rising ranks are generated by weighting i) 5-year growth rate based on the most recent 10 years, ii) 3-year growth rate based on the most recent 6 years, iii) 2-year growth rate based on the most recent 4 years, iv) 1-year growth rate based on the most recent 2 years, and v) quarterly growth rate based on the most recent 2 quarters.
Rising subfields of technology (of a company's specific field).
For each of the multiple subfields of a particular technology field, related to the patent set mapped to those subfields,
ii) Rapidly growing in events such as transactions/litigations/trials in which the patents in the patentset have been used,
iv) Rapidly growing number of standard-essential patents related to government-funded R&Ds in the patentset
etc.
Anomalies related to litigation and assignments
Events such as patent transactions, litigations, trials or M&A, investments, etc. have i) event counterparties (networks), ii) date/time of event occurrence, etc.
Rising events network
PatentPia provides aggregated data by event network (event subject vs. counterparty) on a yearly/quarterly basis. Sorting in descending order (desc) for the Recent Yearly/Quarterly field will reveal a measure of events by "Event Subject vs. Counterparty" with high values based on the most recent yearly/quarter you sort.
Recently appearing events network
PatentPia provides date data of when events occurred by event network (event subject vs. counterparty). Sorting in descending order (desc) for the date field will reveal a measure of events by 'Event Subject vs. Counterparty' that occurred on recent dates.
New item related anomalies
New item-related anomalies include: i) New keywords for companies, ii) New keywords for specific fields in companies.
How to explore new keywords
To explore new keywords.
i) Use 'New' keywords menu,
ii) by sorting the 'date first appeared' field provided in the keyword list in descending order (desc) to find keywords whose date of first appearance in that technology field is close to today.
NPE related anomalies
Related to NPEs, disputes related to purchased patents, i) patent purchases, ii) patent litigations/trials, etc. are particularly important.
Assignment related anomalies
Assignment-related anomalies include.
i) Sale of patents (especially to NPEs)
ii) Patent transactions between subsidiaries-affiliates (reassignments)
iii) Setting and releasing of security
iv) License settings and releases
etc.
Other anomalies
Other anomalies include
i) Occurrence of REISSUE patents (very much more likely to be used in litigation/disputes)
ii) Occurrence of REINSTATEMENT patents (more than 500% more likely to be litigated than normal patents)
Other important signs include.
