What is the Miscellaneous Cluster?

What is included in the miscellaneous cluster and how do I see the clusters grouped within this?

The platform will present a maximum of sixteen technology clusters. If a group of patent families creates more than sixteen clusters, the clustering tool will group the remaining families into ‘miscellaneous’.

How can I see the technology clusters that are are included under 'Miscellaneous'?

  1. After creating a report, select the chart: Portfolio Size > Active patent families, by organisation and technology 

  2. Ensure that the 'miscellaneous' technology cluster is selected in the report. 

  3. Click on the 'miscellaneous' cluster from the chart

  4. This will bring up the underlying data from the chart

  5. Click 'Options' and 'create a new report' 

A new report will be generated from the filtered data (i.e. only miscellaneous) in the original report. The new report will show smaller technology clusters grouped under 'Miscellaneous'.
