[0002] The specific steps for judging design patent infringement include: Determine the scope of protection: According to the provisions of the Patent Law, the scope of protection of a design patent right shall be determined by the design patent product shown in the pictures or photos, including the front view, top view, side view, etc., among which the front view is the most important.

[0003] Judge the product category: Determine whether the design patent product and the infringing product belong to the same or similar goods. Usually, the function and use of the product are used as the criteria, and the International Design Classification is also referred to.

[0004] Conduct a comparison and judgment: Compare the design patent with the design of the accused infringing product to determine whether they are the same or similar. This judgment is usually made from the perspective of an ordinary consumer.

[0005] Currently, for many online sellers, it is very difficult for them to determine whether the products they sell involve patent infringement, especially design patent infringement. There are mainly two aspects. On the one hand, patent retrieval is a job with relatively high professional requirements. On the other hand, after finding similar patents, judging whether the appearance of the product is infringing is a job with even higher professionalism. Therefore, the situation of rampant design patent infringement in online sales has occurred. Summary of the Invention

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention provides a preliminary judgment system for infringement of design patents based on an artificial intelligence large model, which retrieves patents that may be involved in infringement and matches the design drawings of the patents. By extracting features and calculating similarities from the design drawings, dynamically adjusts weights according to product properties, similarity calculation results, and historical data, and gives an infringement risk score to provide a preliminary judgment and warning for sellers. Detailed implementation manners

[0029] The following description is used to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement the present invention. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and those skilled in the art can think of other obvious deformations. The basic principles defined in the following description can be used in other implementation schemes, deformation schemes, improvement schemes, equivalent schemes, and other technical schemes that do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0030] The present invention provides a preliminary judgment system for infringement of design patents based on an artificial intelligence large model, including: An appearance patent retrieval module for retrieving patents that may be involved in infringement and matching the design drawings of the patents; The feature extraction and similarity calculation module is used to extract the shape, pattern, and color features of products and patents, and calculate the similarity; The infringement risk assessment module dynamically adjusts the weights according to the product nature, similarity calculation results, and historical data, and gives an infringement risk score; The system optimization and feedback module collects actual infringement cases, trains the model using machine learning algorithms, optimizes the weight allocation, and continuously updates the weights and calculation methods of the similarity calculation and infringement risk assessment modules according to user feedback.

[0031] It should be noted that the implementation method of this application is as follows: By inputting the design drawings or descriptions of products that may be involved in infringement, the system automatically searches in the patent database to find the design patents similar to the input; Using image processing and machine learning technologies, key features such as shape contours, pattern elements, and color distributions are extracted from the design drawings and patent drawings, and then the similarity between these features is calculated; Considering factors such as the market positioning, sales area, and target audience of the product, combining the similarity calculation results and historical infringement case data, using algorithms to dynamically adjust the weights, and finally giving a comprehensive infringement risk score; Through the established feedback mechanism, collect user feedback and new infringement case data in actual use, and use this data to train and optimize the machine learning model to improve the accuracy and reliability of the system.

[0032] Specifically, In the feature extraction and similarity calculation module of this application, feature extraction includes shape feature extraction unit, pattern feature extraction, and color feature extraction.

[0033] Furthermore, shape features are mainly extracted by two methods: global shape features and local shape features; The global shape features use the Canny edge detection algorithm to extract the object contour, and its calculation formula is:

[0034] Among them, I is the image, x, y represent coordinate values; G(x, y) is the edge gradient; The global shape features use Hu moments to calculate the global shape invariance (including rotation, scaling, and flipping), and the calculation formula is as follows:

[0035] Among them, Mpg represents the p-th and q-th moments, representing the invariance of shape features; x, y represent coordinate values, which are the centroid coordinates of the shape.

[0036] The local shape features use the SIFT (Scale-Invariant Feature Transform) algorithm to extract local shape key points. The SIFT descriptor formula is as follows:

[0037] where L(x, y, σ) is the Gaussian blur value at different scales, and the scale is σ; k is the scale factor that adjusts the intensity of the Gaussian blur.

[0038] Furthermore, the pattern features are divided into two categories: global pattern features and local pattern features; The global pattern features use the Gabor filter to extract texture features. The Gabor filter response function is as follows:

[0039] where x′, y′ are the coordinates after rotation and scaling; λ is the wavelength; θ is the direction; ψ is the phase offset; σ is the standard deviation of the Gaussian function; γ is the aspect ratio.

[0040] The local pattern features use HOG (Histogram of Oriented Gradients) to extract edge and texture features. HOG describes the local shape and texture by calculating the histogram of image gradient directions:

[0041] where Gradient Magnitude represents the magnitude of the image gradient, indicating the edge intensity; Angle Bin represents the grouping of gradient directions, describing the texture direction; HOG(x, y) represents a certain value of the histogram of oriented gradients generated at the pixel (x, y), reflecting the edge intensity of the pixel in a certain direction.

[0042] Furthermore, for color feature extraction (if the patent protects colors), a color histogram is used. When calculating the color similarity, the Bhattacharyya coefficient is used:

[0043] where H 1 and H 2 are the color histograms of two images; are the normalized values of the two histograms.

[0044] In the feature extraction and similarity calculation module of the present application, the similarity calculation is for the product and the patent image after feature extraction, and the similarity of various features needs to be calculated. The specific calculation process includes: shape similarity calculation, pattern similarity calculation, and color similarity calculation.

[0045] Furthermore, the shape similarity calculation includes global shape similarity and local shape similarity; The global shape similarity calculates the shape similarity using the Euclidean distance of Hu moments:

[0046] where H 1 and H 2 are the Hu moment features of the product and the patent.

[0047] The local shape similarity uses SIFT key point matching and calculates the local shape similarity through the nearest neighbor distance ratio:

[0048] where Matched Keypoints represents the number of successfully matched key points; Total Keypoints represents the total number of key points.

[0049] Furthermore, the pattern similarity calculation includes global pattern similarity and local pattern similarity; The global pattern similarity calculates the texture similarity through the response of the Gabor filter. The formula is:

[0050] where R(i) is the response value of the Gabor filter.

[0051] The local pattern similarity uses HOG features and is compared based on the cosine similarity of the histogram:

[0052] where H1(i) and H2(i) are the histogram values of the HOG features.

[0053] Furthermore, for color similarity calculation (if color is the protected object), the Bhattacharyya coefficient is used to calculate the color similarity:

[0054] where is the color difference metric calculated by the Bhattacharyya coefficient.

[0055] In this application, the infringement risk assessment module automatically adjusts the weights of the shape and pattern according to the product type, and calculates the final infringement risk score based on the extracted features and similarity scores, combined with historical data.

[0056] The specific adjustments are as follows: Textile / cultural and creative products: The pattern weight is greater. The recommended weight: Wpattern = 0.6; Wshape = 0.4 Industrial product category: Shape has a greater weight. Suggested weight: Wshape = 0.7, Wpattern = 0.3 Hybrid products: Based on actual needs and patent types, the system dynamically adjusts the weights according to historical data.

[0057] That is, for textile products or cultural and creative products, the weight of the pattern is greater; for industrial products, the weight of the shape is greater; for hybrid products, the weights are dynamically adjusted according to actual needs and patent types.

[0058] Furthermore, the infringement risk assessment module calculates the final infringement risk score based on the extracted features and similarity scores, combined with historical data. The scoring formula is: R infingement = W shape ×(0.4×S shape-global + 0.2×S shape-detail ) + W pattern ×(0.2×S pattern-global + 0.15×S pattern-detail ) + 0.05×S color This weight will be dynamically adjusted according to the collected data and infringement cases. The system optimizes the accuracy of infringement judgment through machine learning algorithms.

[0059] In the system optimization and feedback module of this application, by collecting actual infringement cases, using machine learning algorithms to train the model, optimizing the weight distribution, and continuously updating the weights and calculation methods of the similarity calculation and infringement risk assessment modules according to user feedback.

[0060] Among them, the machine learning algorithms include but are not limited to random forest or XGBoost algorithms, which are used to optimize the accuracy of infringement judgment.

[0061] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention shown in the above description are only examples and do not limit the present invention. The objectives of the present invention have been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and described in the embodiments. Without departing from the said principles, the embodiments of the present invention can have any deformation or modification.
