Citation Link reveals all of a patent's citations — both backward and forward — in a graphical map, using multiple visualization techniques.
You can plot relationships by key bibliographic fields and control a variety of display attributes for easier analysis. With Citation Link, you can instantly find out if an invention is key to an industry or see if competitors are following your lead.
From a specific patent, you can review either backward or forward references, or both at once, while examining as many levels of citations as you need. You can display your analysis in a citation tree or timeline with one-, five- or 10-year increments, and you can plot relationships by:
- Title
- Patent Number
- Assignee
- Inventor(s)
- IPC Class
- National Class
- Assignee Country
Citation Link lets you quickly navigate large maps by providing a thumbnail overview with which you can zero in on a specific area that you want to view in detail. And you can recenter the diagram by selecting a new patent to become the focal point of the display. At any point, you can view bibliographic data or link to the Delphion Integrated View for a specific patent.
With Citation Link's sophisticated visualization technology, you get a clear understanding of a patent's reference history.
You can control your display by color coding specific patents, an entire branch or groups of patents, for example, to highlight all of the patents from a specific assignee. Or, you can clean up your view by choosing to hide specific patents or whole branches of a citation tree. Then zoom in or out to focus on the group that's most relevant to you.
Once you've completed your analysis, you can easily print or save the display for inclusion in reports or presentations. Or, save the resulting list of patents as a Work File for further manipulation and analysis within Delphion Research.
Citation Link is free for Delphion Unlimited subscribers, and $15 per day for Delphion Premier subscribers. Citation Link is not available to Basic registrants.
