摘要:
A method for comparing text data reads two patent documents comprising varying text sections. The method compares characters of a first text section in a first patent document with a corresponding second text section in a second patent document, and acquires a same sub-character string that has a maximum matching length and matching positions of the first and second text sections. The method marks characters before the matching positions of the first and second text sections as different characters. The method displays a comparison result list of the comparison between the first patent document and the second patent document on a display device.

摘要:
A computing device extracts claims, patent law clauses, and prior art documents from an Office action document according to preset regular expressions, and stores the extracted claims, patent law clauses, and prior art documents in an array stored in a storage unit of the computing device. The computing device identifies rejected claims of the Office action document from the extracted claims, and searches involved patent law clauses and prior art documents regarding the rejected claims in the Office action document. The computing device records each identified rejected claim with involved patent law clauses and prior art documents in the storage unit, according to importance ratings of the rejected claims and the relationships.
