Keqiao achieves 7-day patent authorization “acceleration” with AI empowerment
Innovation is the first driving force for development. Protecting intellectual property rights means protecting innovation. In recent years, our country has comprehensively strengthened the protection of intellectual property rights, from top-level design to actual implementation, from international cooperation to market competition, from the improvement of the rule of law to social public opinion, etc., vigorously creating a market-oriented, legal and international business environment, and stimulating various types of intellectual property rights protection. The innovation vitality of market entities has accelerated the construction of an international intellectual property protection highland, which has played an important role in stimulating innovation, building brands, standardizing market order, and expanding opening up to the outside world.
Keqiao is a world-renowned textile industrial cluster. With the improvement of fashion creativity, a large number of new patterns are born every day. How to protect pattern copyright is crucial to improving the enterprise Original enthusiasm and stimulating the vitality of industrial innovation are particularly important. Recently, China’s Shaoxing Keqiao (Textile) Intellectual Property Rapid Protection Center (hereinafter referred to as the “Quick Protection Center”) passed the acceptance of the State Intellectual Property Office. The country’s first textile industry Intellectual Property Rapid Protection Center was put into use, opening up the creation, application, and development of intellectual property rights. The entire chain of protection, management and service is committed to building an intellectual property protection system that supports a world-class business environment.
Since last year, Keqiao District has actively embraced the digital reform wave in Zhejiang Province and developed the country’s first “Chinese Textile Fabric Pattern Copyright Data Center and AI Comparison System”. The “Quick Dimension Center” has built a textile “pattern digital management” application platform through AI empowerment to speed up the review and authorization of textile design patents. The authorization time has been shortened from 6 months to 7 days, realizing patent authorization in Keqiao District. “Acceleration”.
Digital empowerment opens the AI era of copyright protection
Against the background of Zhejiang Province’s highquality promotion of digital reform, Keqiao’s intellectual property protection has also caught on to the digital express and is closely integrated with the development of regional textile advantageous industries. Taking the country’s first pattern copyright AI comparison system as a guide, we will continue to improve the protection system, achieve “breakthrough” upgrades in pattern copyright protection, optimize the market business environment, and promote the healthy development of the textile creative industry.
As a pilot area for the national intellectual property strong county project, Keqiao has created extremely rich value in the field of intellectual property by relying on its huge market size and more than ten years of intellectual property protection work. However, due to the long time required for pattern copyright protection, the low accuracy of manual comparison, and the low cost of infringement and violation of law, there is also a phenomenon that pattern design companies are not very willing to register. As the person in charge of the research and development of the pattern copyright AI comparison system, Zheng Dejun, a Ph.D. from Zhejiang University of Technology’s Zhijiang College, is well aware of the importance of pattern copyright protection for the development of Keqiao’s textile industry.
“The Pattern Copyright AI Comparison System aims at fabric pattern copyright plagiarism, tampering, and repeated registration in different places. It establishes a “one picture, one ID” digital ‘ID card’, conducts ‘household registration management’, and can achieve ‘second-level’ query Feedback, even if all design elements are disrupted and rearranged, can still be traced. Detailed and quantitative comparison and analysis reports can also be provided on the innovation and similarity of patterns, down to every small structure and frame corner. The accuracy rate reaches 99%, allowing textile fabric pattern copyrights to be protected faster, more accurately, and in a more timely manner,” Zheng Dejun said.
It is understood that the pattern copyright AI comparison system can conduct batch comparisons of up to dozens of patterns at the same time and produce comparison and identification reports, allowing information technology to accurately screen and replace manual sensory identification. Since the system was fully put into operation, it has collected 106,000 patterns and copyright patterns registered in Zhejiang in the past 10 years, 10,706 patterns have been compared in the database, AI comparisons have been made 1.142 billion times, and more than 1,600 duplicate and copied patterns have been successfully identified and registered. , accounting for 10.91%, of which duplicate registration in different places accounted for 8.46%, successfully solving the historical problems of duplicate registration and counterfeit registration.
Multi-party collaboration to build a comprehensive coordinated protection system
Intellectual property protection is a systematic project that covers a wide range of areas and involves many aspects. It is necessary to open up the entire chain of intellectual property creation, use, protection, management, and services, improve the comprehensive management system of intellectual property, and build a comprehensive collaborative protection system. In order to further strengthen the protection of pattern copyrights, Keqiao District is actively exploring a multi-functional, cross-level, cross-department, cross-category and cross-regional comprehensive collaborative protection system, working together to enhance the value of intellectual property and transform intellectual achievements.
According to Lou Dongyin, Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Keqiao District Market Supervision Bureau, “the ‘Quick Maintenance Center’ provides operators with the confirmation and authorization of textile design patents, and can complete the review and authorization of textile design patents within 7 days. Authorization is convenient, fast and accurate. At the same time, it provides a “full life cycle” one-stop service for the protection of intellectual property rights such as pattern copyrights, trademarks, patents, etc., which is originally scattered in industry and commerce, science and technology, culture and broadcasting, quality supervision and other departments. Intellectual property management functions are unified and managed by the Market Supervision Bureau.
In order to effectively help market operators solve the difficulties and pain points of long time and high cost of rights protection, Keqiao actively builds a “four-in-one” intellectual property protection system integrating administrative protection, judicial protection, arbitration and mediation, and industry self-discipline, and establishes a specialized Si HuahuaThe circuit court for copyright dispute cases has set up a “market dispute through train” and implemented a new model of “simple rights protection” to seamlessly connect market dispute mediation and judicial confirmation procedures. At the same time, an intellectual property diversified mediation room has been set up in the market to diversify the mediation force and ensure that disputes and conflicts can be resolved in one place at most.
“In 2019, Keqiao contacted major textile producing areas in the country such as Weifang in Shandong, Nantong in Jiangsu, and Foshan in Guangdong to sign the “Collaboration Mechanism of the Four Provinces Textile Pattern Copyright Protection Alliance” to form a “collaborative alliance” for copyright protection in the textile market and create a nationwide This is the first cross-provincial cooperation in the field of copyright protection. Next, we hope that the AI comparison system for pattern copyright will be trialled in these four places first, and gradually promoted to the whole country, to open up the information islands in various places, and in case transfer, evidence collection, delivery and execution, etc. On the other hand, we should realize mutual collaboration, information exchange, resource sharing, and build a collaborative protection system.” Lou Dongyin said.
Since the beginning of this year, Keqiao District has granted 1,327 new patents, including 145 invention patents, a year-on-year increase of 367.7%. A total of 41,639 patents of various types have been obtained, of which textiles account for about 70%; from January to October, Keqiao District The Qiao District Intellectual Property Protection Center accepted a total of 7,871 applications for pattern copyright registration, an increase of more than 60% compared with the same period last year. The intellectual property protection work has achieved remarkable results. Lou Dongyin said that in the future, Keqiao’s pattern copyright protection work will further consolidate the construction of the position alliance and form a large-scale collaborative large-scale protection pattern in which multiple departments and regions work together.
Efficient implementation to create a world-class business environment
As the core node of the entire textile industry chain of China Textile City, pattern design has always been the top priority of the creative industry in the market. The “Quick Dimension Center” relies on the pattern copyright AI comparison system to provide an effective “protective umbrella” for many companies with strong original design capabilities, and drive more companies to form independent research and development awareness, create a good atmosphere of respecting originality, and create a world-class Business environment.
As the “national digital printing product development base”, Zhejiang Red Green Blue Textile Printing and Dyeing Co., Ltd. is a company that integrates R&D, production and sales of mid-to-high-end women’s printed fabricsPrinting and dyeing enterprise can develop 20-25 new patterns every day, promoting the company’s sustainable development with product innovation. While the company’s large number of original design patterns have won the favor of domestic and foreign customers, they are also faced with the problem of being imitated by their peers. After learning that Keqiao had established a “Quick Maintenance Center”, the company immediately submitted a filing application and prepared the information required for design patent registration and the latest developed patterns.
“In the past, many of our best-selling patterns have registered pattern copyrights, but pattern copyrights are difficult to identify, difficult to obtain evidence when they are infringed, time and labor costs are high, and it is difficult to defend rights. New patterns are not popular for long , the key is timeliness. Registration takes at least one month, or even several months. If you go through judicial procedures after being infringed, by the time the court rules, the pattern will be out of date. The ‘Quick Maintenance Center’ can complete the appearance within 7 days. When design patents are authorized, relevant personnel will assist in dealing with infringements. Rights confirmation, authorization, and rights protection are quick, which undoubtedly provides an extra layer of protection for innovative enterprises.” said Tao Haijun, director of the Red, Green, and Blue Textile Office.
Since the “Quick Dimension Center” was put into use, Keqiao has set off an upsurge in design patent applications, and more and more companies are taking actions to respect original designs. Shaoxing Zhenyin Textile Co., Ltd. specializes in cotton, rayon, renewable knitting, woven, printing, embroidery and other diversified and differentiated products. It has wanted to apply for copyright or patent many times, but due to the long registration time and high rights protection costs, it Abandon registration. “After the establishment of the ‘Quick Maintenance Center’, we actively submitted a filing application, hoping that new products would be effectively protected and contribute to Keqiao’s intellectual property protection work. Create a good atmosphere for innovation.” said Yu Zhenwei, general manager of the company.
In the process of building an “international textile capital” at a high level in the new era, the cultivation and protection of intellectual property rights will become increasingly important in promoting the unique advantages of “industry + market”. As the role of the “Quick Dimension Center” and the pattern copyright AI comparison system continue to emerge, it will further stimulate the innovation power and vitality of Keqiao textile industry enterprises, and create a through-the-talent chain, The textile industry collaborative innovation ecosystem of creative chain, industrial chain and financial chain builds the “Keqiao Model” for intellectual property protection, helps the textile fashion creative industry flourish, and promotes the high-quality development of Keqiao Textile with the mission of “leading the race” .
