Statistical information such as gasoline prices and approval ratings of political parties, that has time as one of its domains and numerical values as its range is called time series information. You can obtain the trend of a topic you are interested in by extracting time series information from documents on the topic and compiling it. You, in turn, use the trend for the understanding of and in...

This paper describes the Patent Retrieval Task in the Fourth NTCIR Workshop,
and the test collections produced in this task. We perform the invalidity
search task, in which each participant group searches a patent collection for
the patents that can invalidate the demand in an existing claim. We also
perform the automatic patent map generation task, in which the patents
associated with a specif...
