Non patent literature
Scientific works highlights
Scientific works include publications such as peer reviewed articles, conference proceedings, scientific posters, thesis, books, grey literature….
Publications are ordered by default by relevance.
- Number of occurrences of the searched concept
- Position of the concept within the document (Title, Abstract, Keywords)
- Publication date of the document : most recent documents are privileged
- Type of document (A scientific poster will have less weight than a a peer reviewed article)
Projects highlights
Projects include European projects ( Framework Programmes called FP,6,7 & H2020) and American projects (SBIR & STTR).
European Projects
The Framework Programmes for Research and Technological Development, also called Framework Programmes or abbreviated FP1 to FP7 with “FP8” being named “Horizon 2020”, are funding programmes created by the European Union/European Commission to support and foster research in the European Research Area (ERA). The specific objectives and actions vary between funding periods. In FP6 and FP7 focus was still in technological research, in Horizon 2020 the focus is in innovation, delivering economic growth faster and delivering solutions to end users that are often governmental agencies.
American Projects
The purpose of the SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research, created in 1982) and STTR (Small Business Technology Transfer programs, created in 2000 is to encourage SMEs to engage in research activities and to innovate.
The SBIR program targets the development by SMEs of innovation projects with commercial potential.
The STTR program pursues the same goal and requires, in addition, collaboration between companies and public research organizations.
Therefore, only the STTR projects are collaborative projects.
In both cases, it is a technology competition opened by federal departments and agencies. These agencies must devote part of their outsourced R & D budget to projects presented by SMEs. Departments and agencies, however, select subjects and winners.
These two programs are structured in 3 phases, each represented by an “award”:
- Phase 1: Feasibility study and prototyping, the cost must not exceed $ 150,000 and not last more than 6 months.
- Phase 2: Research and Development, the cost must not exceed $ 1,000,000 and last no longer than 24 months.
- Phase 3: Marketing, not funded by the program (So not available in Orbit Innovation)
Projects are ordered by default by relevance. The relevancy of a project is mainly based on the following indicators :
- Number of occurrences of the searched concept
- Position of the concept within the document (Title, Description)
- Publication date of the document : most recent documents are privileged
Clinical Studies highlights
A clinical trial or study is a research study using human subjects to evaluate biomedical or health-related outcomes.
In general, clinical studies are designed to add to medical knowledge related to the treatment, diagnosis, and prevention of diseases or conditions. Some common reasons for conducting clinical studies include:
- Evaluating one or more interventions (for example, drugs, medical devices, approaches to surgery or radiation therapy) for treating a disease, syndrome, or condition
- Finding ways to prevent the initial development or recurrence of a disease or condition. These can include medicines, vaccines, or lifestyle changes, among other approaches.
- Evaluating one or more interventions aimed at identifying or diagnosing a particular disease or condition
- Examining methods for identifying a condition or the risk factors for that condition Exploring and measuring ways to improve the comfort and quality of life through supportive care for people with a chronic illness
The reliability of these studies is based on a rigorous and proven scientific method to limit any bias, error in data collection or interpretation of results.
Clinical studies are ordered by default by relevance. The relevancy of a clinical study is mainly based on the following indicators :
- Number of occurrences of the searched concept
- Position of the concept within the document
- Publication date of the document : most recent documents are privileged
Inventions
Inventions highlights
Inventions are ordered by default by relevance. The relevancy of inventions is mainly based on the following indicators :
- Number of occurrences of the searched concept
- Position of the concept within the document
- The concepts: The concepts are extracted from the full text in official English of EP applications (excluding Euro-PCT) since 1988, PCT applications since mid-2001, patents granted US from 1971 to 2000, US applications since 15/03/2001 and GB applications since 1979, non-extended RF applications, CN utility models and CN applications.PCTs (not published in Korean) translated into machine English are also used to extract the concepts. Some older documents, up to 1980 for EPs and 2000 for WOs are present. First, nominal sentence are identified within the full text, then they are normalized according to syntactic and semantic rules. Finally, each concept is weighted according to the field in which it has been identified and its occurenc. The concepts reflects the semantic content of the patent.
