Title: PatentMapGeneration in NTCIR-4Workshop

Research Question: How effective is the PatentMapGeneration task in NTCIR-4Workshop?

Methodology: The researchers created test collections for both the Invalidity Search and Patent Map Generation tasks. For the Invalidity Search task, they provided each participant group with a document collection and search topics. The groups then submitted retrieval results, which were evaluated by human experts. For the Patent Map Generation task, the researchers organized patents related to a specific topic into a multi-dimensional matrix.

Results: The researchers found that the Patent Map Generation task was effective in organizing patents related to a specific topic. The evaluation results for each group will be released at the workshop final meeting in June 2004.

Implications: The creation of test collections for both tasks will help evaluate patent retrieval systems and contribute to the development of better search methods. The Patent Map Generation task, in particular, can be useful in organizing patents related to a specific topic, making it easier for users to find relevant information.
