Machine translation and IPC codes in the PATENTSCOPE search system
May 18, 2012
In the search result list, a new button
is available to launch Google Translate. This button is only available if the
language of the search results is different from the language of the interface.This button is also
available in the description, claims and full-text tabs: clicking on it will display not only the
Google Translate option but also an “Alternative machine translation” button which allows
users to select another machine translation tool, for example Microsoft Translator.
A question mark has been added next to the IPC code. Hovering the mouse over it will display
information related to the IPC code.
