Marketable value estimation of patents using ensemble learning methodology: Focusing on U.S. patents for the electricity sector.

Patent valuation is required to revitalize patent transactions, but calculating a reasonable value that consumers and suppliers could satisfy is difficult. When machine learning is used, a quantitative evaluation based on a large volume of data is possible, and evaluation can be conducted quickly an...
