Abstract

Medical engineering (ME) is an interdisciplinary domain with short innovation cycles. Usually, researchers from several fields cooperate in ME research projects. To support the identification of suitable partners for a project, we present an integrated approach for patent classification combining ideas from topic modeling, ontology modeling & matching, bibliometric analysis, and data integration. First evaluation results show that the use of semantic technologies in patent classification can indeed increase the quality of the results.
