FOUNDATION OF SOONGSIL UNIVERSITY-INDUSTRY COOPERATION

FOUNDATION OF SOONGSIL UNIVERSITY - INDUSTRY COOPERATION's patent strategy reveals a surprising, broad focus across computing and communications, with Machine Learning & AI (13.6% of portfolio) and Computer Security (13.0%) as leading areas. While Wireless Networks saw a dramatic 300% YoY growth in 2025, and Speech Processing grew by 400% in the same year, the significant declines in 2026 so far across most categories, such as Routing, Switching & QoS (down 100% YoY), suggest a potential shift in research priorities or a natural fluctuation in a partial year's data.
