Abstract:In this paper, patents related to artificial intelligence included in incoPat"s global patent database are taken as the data source, and the patent measurement method is used to compare and analyze the patent data from the aspects of time, geographical distribution, technology classification, etc., so as to obtain the development status and key technology development direction of major developing countries or organizations of artificial intelligence in the field of artificial intelligence. And analyze the key technologies of different patent types in China, the United States and Japan, which have more patent achievements in the field of artificial intelligence, and compare the key research directions and industrial applications of three countries in the field of artificial intelligence, so as to analyze the development trend in the field of international artificial intelligence. Through analyzing the technology distribution and geographical distribution of patent applicants in the field of artificial intelligence in China, the paper finds out the current situation of the industry in the field of artificial intelligence in China.
