Does more volume mean deeper claims for Yellow?
Each dot is one of Yellow’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). Yellow’s own 3.8 claims/patent is at or below the 6.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Yellow's grants concentrate
Yellow Sea Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under Y02A (Technologies FOR Adaptation TO Climate Change). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Yellow sits between Yangtze Railroad Materials and Yummly, Inc..
Yellow's three-year grant acceleration
Yellow Sea Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences shows 4 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.
