What this shows Sookmyung's Innovation Score is 53.8/100 (top 8% 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 Sookmyung?

Each dot is one of Sookmyung’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). Sookmyung’s own 10.8 claims/patent is at or below the 16.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Sookmyung's grants concentrate

Sookmyung Women's University INDUSTRY—ACADEMIC Cooperation Foundation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 21 CPC subclasses with 29.2% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Sookmyung sits between Sightline Interactive LLC and Spire Global, Inc..

Sookmyung's three-year grant acceleration

Sookmyung Women's University INDUSTRY—ACADEMIC Cooperation Foundation shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
