A document analysis unit (eg, My Project Transfer 402) to perform the search, and similar document search for moving the selected documents to the first interface (shown in FIG. 4, 320) so that documents similar to the selected documents can be searched. A portion (e.g., multi-document search 403) is formed.

3 shows a second embodiment of the first interface provided to the user, and the user attaches a file in the form of text via the first interface 310 according to the second embodiment, thereby resembling the attached file. You can search the document.

To this end, the first interface 310 is provided with a document attachment unit 312 for attaching the document, the keyword extraction unit 22 described above is to read the content information of the attached file, the text form of the content information It is responsible for extracting keywords.

As described above, the applicant classification unit, the country selection unit, and the hint input unit 313 may be further formed.

4, there is shown a third embodiment of a first interface according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the first interface 320 according to the third embodiment is associated with a particular document among documents of a search result. It plays a role that is provided to users to search for similar documents again.

The search result of the similar document by the first interface 320 is displayed through the second interface 410 to be distinguished from the first interface 320.

In addition, a document analyzer 412 and a similar document searcher 413 may be formed in the second interface 410.

In more detail, when the document retrieved through the first interface 300 and 310 described above is displayed on the second interface 400, the user selects a specific document from the documents displayed on the second interface 400 and then the similar document. When the searcher 403 is inputted, the selected documents are moved to the first interface 320 according to the third embodiment.

That is, the document displayed on the second interface 400 is moved to the first interface 320 for searching similar documents by the user's selection.

In addition, the user may select a specific document among the documents displayed on the first interface 320 according to the third embodiment, and in this case, the selected documents serve as a query word for searching for similar documents.

When a user selects a specific document from the documents displayed on the first interface 320 and inputs a search key, documents similar to the selected documents are extracted from the document DB 21 and displayed. .

In this case, the data access interface device 22 extracts a keyword from the documents selected through the first interface 320 and searches for documents including the extracted keyword from the document DB 21. To perform.

Documents retrieved by the data access interface device 22 are displayed via a second interface 410 to be distinguished from the first interface 320. In addition, the user may reselect a document from among the documents displayed on the second interface 410, and in this case, a search for a document similar to the selected documents is performed again as described above.

Such a search method and a user interface allow the route of document search to be diversified, and the user can more accurately find a document to be searched while narrowing the range of similarity.

5-8 are various embodiments of a third interface that allows analysis of a document by a user.

First, referring to FIG. 5, when a user selects a specific document among the documents displayed through the second interface 400 and 410 described above, and then inputs the document analyzer 402 or 412, the selected documents are implemented according to the present invention. According to the example, the third interface 500 moves.

When the analysis list mode setting key 510 is input, an intelligent search unit 511 for clustering specific documents selected from the documents displayed on the third interface 500, and the selected documents The user may display a quantitative analysis unit for creating a patent map, and an analysis reporting unit for providing a summary of the selected documents.

6, in case of inputting a specific document among the documents displayed through the third interface 500, an interface for inputting an evaluation (or editing) of the selected document is provided. .

That is, a document summary unit 512 for displaying summary information of an input document and a review input unit 513 for inputting a review result for the summary displayed document are formed in a user interface for editing a document.

In addition, the review input unit 513 is formed with a plurality of input unit 513a for the user to directly input the review results, the importance of the document, product applicability, rights stability, review results, whether or not the precise review and corresponding measures This can be formed.

In addition, a document editing unit 513b capable of directly editing a document on which summary information is displayed is formed, and a user can directly edit a summary or a claim displayed on the document editing unit 513b.

When the user directly inputs a document review result through the review input unit 513 or edits a document, the content of the review result may be provided to other users.

For example, a first user writes a document review result or edits a document through the review item input unit 513 with respect to a patent document of Patent Application No. 2003-0006723, and a second user edits the document. When a patent document of -0006723 is searched, the content of the document review result and the document editing performed by the first user can be provided to the second user.

In addition, a user using the web server 20 may set a range of users who can share the contents of the document review result, etc. In this case, each company may share the contents of the review result in a team unit or a department unit. Could be.

7, when the review result of the document described in FIG. 6 is input, the content 515 of the review result is displayed when the document is searched.

FIG. 8 is a diagram for describing a cluster content when a user clusters selected documents by using the intelligent search unit 511 formed in the third interface 500.

In addition, the user may check the result of clustering by inputting the classification management mode setting key 530, and the cluster display unit 531 for displaying clusters in the form of upper folder and lower folder, and included in each cluster. A cluster content display unit 532 is provided in which documents are displayed.

A user can move a specific document to another cluster by inputting a moving key formed in the cluster content display unit 532, include the same document in another cluster by inputting a copy key, and enter a specific key by inputting a delete key. You can also delete a document from a cluster.
