Automated Extraction of Knowledge Useful to Populate Inventive Design Ontology from Patents

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
TRIZ – The Theory of Inventive Problem Solving

Abstract

This chapter proposes an approach to extract and manage knowledge from patent documents for use by design engineers within the framework of the inventive design method (IDM). IDM is an extension of TRIZ, the theory of inventive problem solving, and is meant for complex situations. It uses generic linguistic markers to locate and extract IDM-related knowledge, such as problems, partial solutions, and parameters, to automatically populate IDM ontology.
