What this shows Public's Innovation Score is 28.6/100 (28th 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 Public?

Each dot is one of Public’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). Public’s own 10.9 claims/patent is at or below the 15.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Public's grants concentrate

Public University Corporation Nara Medical University is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Public sits between Prym Consumer USA, Inc. and Paradise Packaging Inc..

Public's three-year grant acceleration

Public University Corporation Nara Medical University shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
