Documents

Documents module provides a listing of the analyzed/uploaded documents. In the Documents module, users have access to a range of features that enable them to perform actions like viewing, sharing, analyzing, exporting, etc. the documents they have uploaded. There are two types of views for viewing a document:

Switch between Matrix View and Expert View using the toggle beside Query Action.

Access to Documents Module

Documents module can be accessed from the Hamburger Menu and the Project Card on the landing page of Insightloupe. On the landing page, each project card shows the list of documents which is hyperlinked to the Documents module.

Expert View

Expert view allows users to view the uploaded documents in a detailed format which can include the bibliographic information (such as claims, assignee, abstract, etc.) and the analysis (such as tags, extra/chartable extra fields, comments, etc.) that the analyst has conducted on the documents. The expert view is divided into 3 different panes:

  • Left Pane
  • Right Pane
  • Middle Pane

Left Pane

It contains a list of documents in the form of a card. The following features are present in the left pane:

  • Document List
  • Filters
  • Configure Bookmarks

Use the hide/view pane option to collapse the left pane and focus on the content.

Document List

Cards are used to present the uploaded documents and these document cards include information specific to the document that the user has selected or uploaded. For example, the document card for a patent document will have details like patent number, title, and assignees, whereas the document card of an article will show details like title, journal, and affiliation of the respected document.

By clicking on the individual cards, users can browse through various documents.

Patent Document

A patent is a type of intellectual property that grants the owner the legal right to prevent others from making, using, or selling an invention for a limited time. The following fields are available for patent documents under different tabs on the document page:

  • Claims
    • Claims
    • Independent Claims
  • Bibliographic Information
    • Family Id
    • Application Number
    • Priority Country
    • Document Subtype
    • Assignees
    • Original Assignee
    • Inventors
    • Priority Date
    • Application Date
    • Publication Date
    • Representative Agents
    • Family Members
    • Classification
    • Citations
    • Legal Status
    • Legal Events

There are two types of patent document type on Insightloupe:

  • Patent Publication
  • Patent Family

There can be multiple publications for a single patent application. While all publications can be stored and viewed on the platform, one of the republications is marked as a representative republication. There is an option for Show republication to view all republications of a patent document.

In some cases, Representative Republication (RR) doesn’t have any value for the specific field, and republication does. This may happen due to multiple reasons e.g.: If a pending publication has been granted and the granted publication has now become Representative Republication (RR) due to the criteria of the latest publication.

Now the analysis done on the old representative republication is not visible on the new representative republication (RR). So instead of adding the data manually, we copy the data from non-RR to the new Representative Republication (RR). Following are the fields which can be copied based on the preference selected during Representative Republication (RR):

  • Latest Publication is Selected
    • Tags (Technology tags, Claim&Scope tags, Product tags)
    • Extra Fields
    • Chartable Extra Fields
    • Claims & Independent claims
    • Abstract
    • Assignee
    • Inventors
    • Description
    • Legal risk flag
    • Original Assignee
    • Sequence Alignment
  • Earliest Publication is Selected
    • Assignee
    • Inventors
    • Legal Status
    • Original Assignee

The logic for selecting Representative Republication (RR) is defined at the time of project creation.

Whereas in the patent family, there can be multiple patent publications belonging to the same family. Each patent is assigned a family ID which identifies different patent that is related to a single-family and all those patent are considered family members. All the family members can be stored and viewed on the platform, and one of the members is marked as a Representative family member (RFM). There is an option of Show Family Members to view all the patent publications of a family document.

Currently, Insightloupe allow its users to fetch Simple family members or Extended family members in the project based on the Patent Family Preference settings of the project’s client. For the simple family members all the family details are being fetched from IFI. Whereas, if Extended Family member is selected at Patent Family Preference the extended family members will be fetched where we use Patseer to fetch the extended family Id and IFI to fetch the extended family members.

By using the RFM model we identify the Representative family member(RFM).

Side View for Drawings Tab

Follow the steps provided below to view drawing in the right pane:

  1. Click on the Drawings tab in the Middle pane on the Document module.

    • The summary will be ranked from best to worst based on the number of votes provided to the generated summary.
    • However, if there are no votes provided for the generated summaries then we show the summaries in reverse chronological order i.e. latest generated summary will be visible first.
    • Upon reloading the page, only the top 3 summaries based on the votes will be visible to the user.
