What this shows Northeast's Innovation Score is 51.6/100 (top 11% 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 Northeast?

Each dot is one of Northeast’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). Northeast’s own 6.2 claims/patent is at or below the 7.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Northeast's grants concentrate

Northeast Agricultural University is a focused PatentsView assignee: 28 CPC subclasses with 38.5% of grants classified under Y02A (Technologies FOR Adaptation TO Climate Change). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Northeast sits between Ningbo Eudemon Child Protective Equipment Co., Ltd. and Nutrition21, LLC.

Northeast's three-year grant acceleration

Northeast Agricultural University shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
