[04:00] schestowitz[TR2] "That the EPO takes into account new technologies is, as such, is nothing surprising. That Hey Hi (AI) can be envisaged as promising is not surprising either.
Like any learning machine model, the training data are of utmost importance. Otherwise a bias could be introduced without even noticing it. How has it been assured that no bias has been introduced?
The following statement is questionable: The success
[04:00] schestowitz[TR2] of this process is measured by whether at least one highly relevant "X citation" document appears in the pre-search results produced by the k-NN algorithm.
Why is a search delivering at least only highly relevant X citation in pre-search results the guarantee a good search? A good search is not necessarily a search revealing a highly relevant X citation. A search not revealing any X document but only Y or A
[04:00] schestowitz[TR2] citations can also be a good search.
An electronic search can be good at finding highly relevant documents for a lack of novelty, but even so important, are good documents for assessing inventive step, in other words Y citations, preferably in pairs. This is were electronic searches have their biggest drawback: finding documents which can be combined for assessing inventive step.
Not all X citations can b
[04:00] schestowitz[TR2] e combined in a way to so as to enable a good argumentation against inventive step. It is easy to draft a novelty objection, and afterwards to overcome it, but way more difficult to find the documents allowing a proper argumentation on inventive step. This is why the Y category has been created. Those documents are the most difficult to find in an electronic search."
