METHODOLOGY

Methodology, disclosed in full

Every series draws on public primary sources alone: USPTO, BLS, the Japan Patent Office, and e-Stat. Each edition states its method, so any reader can verify the numbers against the originals. A filing is an intention, not a launch, and every issue is explicit about what the data can and cannot say.
