What this shows Shihezi's Innovation Score is 51.0/100 (top 12% 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 Shihezi?

Each dot is one of Shihezi’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). Shihezi’s own 8.1 claims/patent is at or below the 9.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Shihezi's grants concentrate

Shihezi University is a focused PatentsView assignee: 24 CPC subclasses with 25% of grants classified under A01G (HORTICULTURE; Cultivation OF Vegetables, Flowers, Rice, Fruit, Vines, Hops OR SEAWEED; FORESTRY; Watering). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Shihezi sits between Shenzhen UAH Technology Co., Ltd and SI EN Technology (XIAMEN) Limited.

Shihezi's three-year grant acceleration

Shihezi University shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
