If I have a free text, how do I create a search using PatSeer?

Context Aware - Enabled (High)
 

  • Once you paste a Paragraph or Number in the given box, you will see a toggle button that will help you to set the Context-awareness to High for better results. 
  • The context awareness allows you to switch the contextual comprehension depth of the semantic engine from Low to High.
  •  In most cases, setting this to High gives you more relevant results.  

Context Aware - Disabled (Low)
 

  • Even with the setting at default value (Low) the results are far better than the older semantic search. 
  • Setting this to Low may work well for paragraphs that contains specialized, infrequent scientific terms such as chemical or plant names. In such cases lexical (keyword) relevance is given a higher weightage over semantic (contextual) relevance.

Text (paragraph/free text)
 

  • Once you Paste the paragraph then based on the requirement you can switch the context aware to high or low as discussed above. 
  • While creating the search you also have an option of limiting your search to options such as Application or Priority Dates, Classifications, Corporate Owners, Legally Alive Families and also Priority Countries

     

 

  • Also within the settings you can chose the number of records to be displayed on the results page. You can choose to see 200,300 or 500 records at a time. 
  • You have the option to get relevant results for your search based on the AI score percentage. This means you can select a specific AI score threshold, and the system will retrieve records that will match the selected criteria
  • After running your search on the result page the records will appear as one member per family (SFAM / Simple Families) and also are scored based on the relevancy to the Searched Paragraph. 
  • On the result page the records will be sorted based on the Relevance and you would not be able to change it. 
  • To understand why a result scored higher you can use the KWIC option to view snippets from the full-text of the record. You can click on the AI score  itself to view the paragraphs one by one or use the KWIC option. The matched paragraphs are underlined with shades of green based on their relevance to your input.
  • To navigate through the KWIC you can use the Next and Previous arrows that appear when the cursor is hovered near the highlighted text, for navigating to next and previous snippets.
