What this shows Korea's Innovation Score is 34.3/100 (47th percentile 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 Korea?
Each dot is one of Korea’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). Korea’s own 14.5 claims/patent is at or below the 15.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Korea's grants concentrate
Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under G06F (Electric Digital Data Processing). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Korea sits between Konescranes Global Oy and Kratos SRE, Inc..
Korea's three-year grant acceleration
Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering Co., Ltd. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
