Hello readers,

Have you seen the latest news over Setrue Patent Search???

The popular blog Infringement Updates has posetd a nice review over patent search…

Enjoy…

Setrue Semantic Patent Search Engine is one of the most powerful patent search engine ever published and it’s the first professional patent search engine offered freely for non-commercial users. Its ease of use makes the search process enjoyable and fun to use, while maintaining powerful features such as:

Hello readers,

I would like to introduce you to a new semantic patent search engine called Setrue Patent Search. I think its one of the powerful patent search engines I ever came across, its ease of use was remarkable, and its interface is very easy and intuitive.

Please let me share with you some of its aspects, first, its powerful semantic engine that is the state of the art today, its semantic engine tries to understand the user’s query before the searching process, the search engine behind the scenes has won two TREC challenges and currently holds two world records with the highest precisions scores. The semantic models have been developed in the past 8 years by Transformer Software ltd. Second, its interfaces that let the user two types of patent search, one is the Patent Directory where the user can drill down to the patent category that interests him and read all patents in the category or the user can conduct a search only within the category of its choice. The second part of the interface is that the user can conduct a wide search, see the result and filter them according to its favorite category.

Hello readers,

In the next few posts I will explain “Why there is a growing need for a semantic search?” and “Why semantic search is far better than key word search?”

A good example for the semantic power that can be achieved by search engines is utilized by Setrue Patent Search, this engine is one of the best in the world and its ability to find patents in a very demanding environment of patent searching is remarkable. It was developed by Transformer software Ltd. Setrue Patent search holds two world records in precision score.

The early days

As early as the first days of the invention of computers, people used their computers to store their documents, and in those early days the problem of retrieving documents has began but left unnoticed by information researchers because of the low amounts of information needed to be retrieved. For example, consider a situation when the internet contained only 10 documents altogether (a true situation), if researchers were to develop a primitive algorithm to retrieve information from those 10 documents, this algorithm will always have a precision score of 100% because the probability of finding one document in a set of 10 when given a set of ten result is 10/10 = 100%. Now lets move a bit forward in time to the situation when the internet contained 1000 documents, the same algorithm used before will now yield a score of 10/1000 = 0.1%. That was the point when information researchers realized that they have a real problem.
