AI solutions to enhance the intellectual property right (IPR) online filing process

知识产权局(IPO)看到对知识产权申请的需求不断增加，正在努力跟上这一需求。授予知识产权所需的时间会影响英国国内的创新，因为知识产权需要得到保护。因此，我们正在研究如何利用人工智能来加强知识产权(主要是商标和专利)的申请和审查流程，以减少提交和未获批准的权利的数量，并允许审查员更多地专注于特殊申请。作为这项工作的一部分，我们正在创建一个概念证明，允许申请者在申请之前通过使用人工智能将他们的权利与其他注册权利进行比较来了解他们的权利被接受的可能性。

The Intellectual Property Office (IPO) is seeing increased demand for IP rights applications and are struggling to keep up with this demand. The time it takes for an IP right to be granted impacts innovation within the UK as intellectual property needs to be protected. As such we are looking at how artificial intelligence can be used to augment the application and examination process of IP Rights (primarily Trade Marks and Patents) to reduce the number of Rights that are submitted and not approved and allow examiners to focus more on the exceptional applications. As part of this we are creating a Proof of Concept to allow applicants to understand the likelihood of their Right being accepted prior to applying by using AI to compare their Right to other registered Rights.
