Generally speaking, a patent can have multiple authors, and the specific number of authors is not specified, but it is obviously unrealistic whether all patent authors can be used to evaluate professional titles. At present, only top patent authors have practical significance, while the latter does not.
Therefore, we can use common and practical patent author positions to evaluate professional titles, that is, the top four patent authors. When choosing the title of patent evaluation, the first inventor, the second inventor, the third inventor and the fourth inventor shall be selected.
Secondly, who is the author of the patent for senior professional titles? The higher the title level, the higher the requirements for patents. At this time, we should not only consider the type of patent, but also consider the position of the patent author. Generally speaking, patents for evaluating senior professional titles are invention patents or utility model patents, and the common patent authors are the first 1-2, the first inventor and the second inventor. Specifically, the professional title evaluation document of your own unit shall prevail.
