Abstract: EPOS (EPO Synonyms) is a system being devised by the EPO as a full text search tool to assist the examiner in querying databases. If an examiner knows one word expressing his field of interest, EPOS delivers to him all the ECLA (EPO classification) groups where this basic term is considered relevant. The examiner then selects the right words appropriate to the desired search query.
