Researchers have introduced PatRe, a new benchmark designed to evaluate large language models (LLMs) on the complex, multi-stage process of patent examination. Unlike previous benchmarks that treated examination as simple classification, PatRe models the full lifecycle, including generating office actions and applicant rebuttals. Experiments using PatRe with various LLMs revealed differences in performance between proprietary and open-source models, highlighting both their capabilities and limitations in legal and technical reasoning.
