Abstract

Claims (63)

1. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

one or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

generating a graphical user interface (GUI) configured to display on a computing device, the GUI configured to receive an input from the computing device;

receiving, via the GUI, input data representing the input, the input data indicating an identification number of a first intellectual-property asset;

identifying one or more second intellectual-property assets that are similar to the first intellectual-property asset, the one or more second intellectual-property assets being associated with respective first entities;

identifying a first entity from the respective first entities as a target entity based at least in part on a number of the one or more second intellectual-property assets that are associated with the first entity satisfying a threshold number;

generating a first vector representation of the target entity based at least in part on the one or more second intellectual-property assets that are associated with the target entity;

identifying one or more second entities having one or more third intellectual-property assets that are similar to the one or more second intellectual-property assets;

generating, for individual ones of the one or more second entities, a second vector representation based at least in part on the one or more third intellectual-property assets;

determining a ranking of the one or more second entities based at least in part on comparing the first vector representation to the second vector representation of the individual ones of the one or more second entities; and

causing the GUI to display the one or more second entities according to the ranking.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the input data further indicates an identification of third entity, and the operations further comprising:

identifying one or more fourth intellectual-property assets associated with the third entity; and

wherein identifying the one or more second entities comprises identifying the one or more second entities having the one or more third intellectual-property assets that are similar to the one or more fourth intellectual-property assets.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the input data further indicates an identification of a target product, and the operations further comprising:

identifying a technological categorization of the target product; and

wherein identifying the one or more second entities comprises identifying the one or more second entities having one or more third intellectual-property assets that are associated with the technological categorization of the target product.

4. The system of claim 3 , the operations further comprising:

identifying a description associated with the target product;

determining that text included in the description is similar to text included in at least a portion of the one or more third intellectual-property assets associated with the one or more second entities; and

identifying the one or more second entities based at least in part on determining that the text included in the description associated with the target product is similar to the text included in at least the portion of the one or more third intellectual-property assets.

5. The system of claim 1 , the operations further comprising:

determining that the first entity is associated with a most favorable number of the one or more second intellectual-property assets; and

identifying the first entity from the respective first entities as the target entity based at least in part on determining that the first entity is associated with the most favorable number of the one or more second intellectual-property assets.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the input data is first input data, and the operations further comprising:

receiving, via the GUI, second input data indicating a selection of a second entity of the one or more second entities;

identifying one or more fourth intellectual-property assets associated with the second entity;

determining, for individual assets of the one or more fourth intellectual-property assets, if the individual asset is associated with a litigation dispute; and

generating an exportable file including a list of the individual assets of the one or more fourth intellectual-property assets that are associated with the litigation dispute and information associated with the litigation dispute for the respective individual asset.

7. The system of claim 1 , the operations further comprising:

identifying, based at least in part on the one or more second intellectual-property assets, a technological categorization associated with the target entity, wherein the technological categorization includes a technology or a product associated with at least one of the one or more second intellectual-property assets or the target entity; and

identifying the one or more second entities having the one or more third intellectual-property assets that are similar to the one or more second intellectual-property assets based at least in part on the technological categorization associated with the target entity.

8. A method comprising:

generating a graphical user interface (GUI) configured to display on a computing device, the GUI configured to receive an input from the computing device;

receiving, via the GUI, input data representing the input, the input data indicating an identification of a target product;

identifying a technical feature associated with the target product;

identifying one or more first intellectual-property assets associated with product based at least in part on the technical feature, the one or more first intellectual-property assets being associated with respective first entities;

determining, from the respective first entities, that a first entity is associated with a most favorable number of the one or more first intellectual-property assets;

identifying the first entity as a target entity based at least in part on determining that the first entity is associated with the most favorable number of the one or more first intellectual-property assets;

generating a first vector representation of the target entity based at least in part on the one or more first intellectual-property assets that are associated with the target entity;

identifying one or more second entities having one or more second intellectual-property assets that are similar to the one or more first intellectual-property assets;

generating, for individual ones of the one or more second entities, a second vector representation based at least in part on the one or more second intellectual-property assets;

determining a ranking of the one or more second entities based at least in part on comparing the first vector representation to the second vector representation of the individual ones of the one or more second entities; and

causing the GUI to display the one or more second entities according to the ranking.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the input data further indicates an identification of a third entity, and the method further comprising:

identifying one or more third intellectual-property assets associated with the third entity; and

wherein identifying the one or more second entities comprises identifying the one or more second entities having the one or more second intellectual-property assets that are similar to the one or more third intellectual-property assets.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein:

the input data further indicates an identification of a target intellectual-property asset; and

identifying the one or more second entities comprises identifying the one or more second entities having one or more second intellectual-property assets that are similar to the target intellectual-property asset.

11. The method of claim 8 , wherein the input data is first input data, and the method further comprising:

receiving, via the GUI, second input data indicating a selection of a second entity of the one or more second entities;

identifying one or more third intellectual-property assets associated with the second entity;

determining, for individual assets of the one or more third intellectual-property assets, if the individual asset is associated with a litigation dispute; and

generating an exportable file including a list of the individual assets associated with the litigation dispute and information associated with the litigation dispute for the respective individual asset.

12. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

identifying a description associated with the target product;

determining that text included in the description is similar to text included in at least a portion of the one or more second intellectual-property assets associated with the one or more second entities; and

identifying the one or more second entities based at least in part on determining that the text included in the description associated with the target product is similar to the text included in at least the portion of the one or more second intellectual property assets.

13. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:

determining that the first entity is associated with a number of the one or more first intellectual-property assets that satisfies a threshold number; and

identifying the first entity from the respective first entities as the target entity based at least in part on determining that the first entity is associated with the number of the one or more first intellectual-property assets that satisfy the threshold number.
