Abstract
There is disclosed a computer-implemented method of handling a text expressed in a natural language comprising creating a second text or patent claim sentence from a first text or patent claim sentence and timestamping said second text or patent claim sentence. Developments comprise the creation of a plurality of texts or patent claim sentences, the use of trusted and/or trustless timestamping, the use of grammatical texts, the use of a parser and/or of a tagger, modification operations such as addition, insertion and deletion, injection of definitions of words, the use of a thesaurus (synonym, hyponym, hyperonym, holonym, antonym of a word, etc), the use of a unique and optionally persistent web address, making the second text or patent claim available to the public (or not), the use of lexical directions such as a patent classification indication and the use of crowdsourcing techniques.
Claims
-
A computer-implemented method of handling a patent claim comprising:
receiving an initial patent claim;
modifying said initial patent claim into a plurality of modified patent claims;
timestamping said modified patent claims.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein the timestamping step comprises a trusted timestamping step.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1 or 2, wherein the timestamping step comprises a decentralized timestamping step.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein one or more modified patent claims are made available to the public.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein a modified patent claim is associated with a unique electronic publication address.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising receiving one or more words and/or patent classification indications and/or website or webpage addresses and/or a text.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising receiving selection of a specific portion of the initial patent claim and receiving a parameter value associated with said selected specific portion.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising parsing the initial patent claim into one or more parse trees, determining one or more template slots from said one or more parse trees, a template slot comprising a word or a group of adjacent words or a group of non-adjacent words.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 8, further comprising deleting and/or inserting and/or reordering one or more template slots and/or replacing one or more template slots by one or more new words.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 9, wherein the one or more new words are words of the initial patent claim, and/or synonym, hyponym, hyperonym, holonym, antonym or meronym thereof.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 9, wherein the one or more new words are words of a patent claim tree associated with the initial patent claim, and/or synonym, hyponym, hyperonym, holonym, antonym or meronym thereof.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 9, wherein the one or more new words are words of a patent specification or description associated with the initial patent claim.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising associating a modified patent claim with at least one metric.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 13, wherein a metric comprises an edit distance between said modified patent claim and the initial patent claim and/or a distance between said modified patent claim and another modified patent claim.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 14, wherein the edit distance is a Levenshtein distance.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising receiving indication of a meaning creation intensity.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 16, wherein a patent claim is modified according to a threshold determined from said meaning creation intensity.
- The computer-implemented method of claim 1, wherein one or more modified patent claims are grammatical.
- A system comprising means to perform one or more steps of the method of claims 1 to 18.
- A computer program comprising instructions for carrying out one or more of the steps of the method according to any one of claims 1 to 18 when said computer program is executed on a suitable computer device.
