JPO Patent Corpus for WAT2016-2017

[HOME]

INTRODUCTION

JPO Patent Corpus was constructed by the Japan Patent Office (JPO). This corpus consists of a Chinese-Japanese, Korean-Japanese, and English-Japanese patent description corpus of 1M parallel sentences with four sections, which are Chemistry, Electricity, Mechanical engineering, and Physics, based on International Patent Classification (IPC).

DETAIL

JPO Patent corpus includes:

The numbers of sentences are as follows:

JPO Patent Corpus was constructed from Chinese-Japanese, Korean-Japanese, and English-Japanese patent description sentence pairs.
The Data include the information assets that the JPO and the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) create jointly based on the agreement between the JPO and the NICT.

For another patent corpus, there is NTCIR-10 PatentMT Research Purpose Use of Test Collection.
