IP Infringement Detection for Market Surveillance
30 patents in this list
Updated:
Detecting intellectual property infringement across digital platforms has become increasingly challenging, with studies showing that automated monitoring systems miss up to 40% of potential violations when relying on exact matches alone. The scale is significant - a single e-commerce platform can host millions of listings that require continuous scanning for trademark, patent, and copyright violations.
The fundamental challenge lies in balancing detection accuracy with processing efficiency while accounting for intentionally modified content designed to evade traditional matching systems.
This page brings together solutions from recent research—including blockchain-based rights verification systems, neural network content analysis frameworks, distributed crawling architectures, and intelligent pattern matching algorithms. These and other approaches focus on practical implementation strategies that can scale across international platforms while maintaining detection accuracy.
