A question about [patent application]-Can "algorithm" be patented?
The algorithm can be patented and regarded as a new technology.

patent law of the people's republic of china

Article 22 An invention or utility model that has been granted a patent right shall be novel, creative and practical.

Novelty means that the invention or utility model does not belong to the prior art; Before the filing date, no unit or individual filed an application for the same invention or utility model with the administrative department for patent in the State Council, and it was recorded in the patent application documents published or announced after the filing date.

Creativity means that compared with the prior art, the invention has outstanding substantive features and remarkable progress, and the utility model has substantive features and progress.

Practicality means that the invention or utility model can be manufactured or used and can produce positive effects. The existing technology mentioned in this law refers to the technology known to the public at home and abroad before the date of application.

Algorithm patent application case:

At the recent 20 18 World Artificial Intelligence Conference, after more than three months of fierce competition, the highest honor prize of the World Artificial Intelligence Innovation Competition was finally settled, namely AI innovation on Amazon AWS cloud, Smart Future Bank of China Industrial and Commercial Bank, Smart Portrait Platform and densely connected Convolutional Neural Network.

Among them, Yi Tu Science and Technology, which develops and builds "Yi Tu Intelligent Portrait Platform", is a pure artificial intelligence company.

According to reports, the highest honor award of the first World Artificial Intelligence Innovation Competition is used to recognize global artificial intelligence innovation projects that lead scientific and technological innovation and create a better life in the future.

Many participating projects come from global high-tech enterprises such as Microsoft, Baidu, Amazon, Tencent, Iflytek and Xiaomi, as well as domestic and foreign academic and scientific research institutions. The Innovation Award is used to reward innovative technologies and new applications that have reached the global leading level in the field of artificial intelligence. Leo Zhu, CEO of Yi Tu Science and Technology, believes that Yi Tu's face recognition technology can win this innovation award, and its core competitiveness is its self-developed face recognition algorithm.

Face recognition, that is, computer vision processing, as a key component of artificial intelligence, is currently in an unimaginable stage of rapid development and has been applied in security, finance, medical care and other fields. "The efficiency of our algorithm increases by nearly 100 times every year. It is not difficult to identify a person from hundreds of millions of faces now. "

Leo Zhu said that the ultra-high precision face recognition algorithm at the core of Yi Tu Portrait Platform uses large-scale deep neural network, well-designed ternary loss function and customized training strategy, which greatly improves the performance of face recognition system and reduces the false alarm rate to less than 100 million.

It is also relying on such an accurate face recognition algorithm that Itucco has become the only China enterprise in the world to win two world championships in face recognition.

Artificial intelligence is application-oriented and needs to "land". According to reports, since the beginning of this year, Beijing railway police have seized four online fugitives from the Ministry of Public Security within 24 hours at a station, including 1 person absconding 19 years. As of July this year, the Beijing Railway Police have captured nearly 2,000 criminals of all kinds by using Yi Tu's artificial intelligence technology, among which more than 100 are fugitives on the Internet.
