What this shows Samsung's Innovation Score is 39.6/100 (top 38% 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 Samsung?

Each dot is one of Samsung’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). Samsung’s own 9.4 claims/patent is at or below the 16.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Samsung's grants concentrate

Samsung C & T Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 28 CPC subclasses with 36.4% of grants classified under E04B (General Building CONSTRUCTIONS; Walls, e.g. PARTITIONS; ROOFS; FLOORS; CEILINGS; Insulation OR Other Protection OF Buildings). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Samsung sits between Safran Vectronix AG and Sanwa Techno Co., Ltd..

Samsung's three-year grant acceleration

Samsung C & T Corporation 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.
