What this shows Japan's Innovation Score is 43.1/100 (top 29% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Japan?

Each dot is one of Japan’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Japan’s own 11.7 claims/patent is at or below the 15.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Japan's grants concentrate

Japan Advanced Institute OF Science AND Technology is a focused PatentsView assignee: 38 CPC subclasses with 43.5% of grants classified under H01L (Semiconductor Devices NOT Covered BY Class H10). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Japan sits between Interstate Electronics Corporation and Jiangxi Yibo E-tech Co. Ltd..

Japan's three-year grant acceleration

Japan Advanced Institute OF Science AND Technology shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
