Researchers have developed a new method for predicting patent novelty by focusing on fine-grained feature analysis rather than a simple binary classification. This approach, called FiNE-Patents, uses large language models to identify specific passages in prior art documents that correspond to individual claim features. The system aims to provide a more granular and transparent assessment of an invention's novelty, outperforming traditional embedding-based methods in retrieval and feature identification. AI
