Fig. 2From: Assessment of the significance of patent-derived information for the early identification of compound–target interaction hypothesesDelay between publication in the scientific literature after appearing in a patent. Percentage of compound–target interaction pairs from the reference set for which the delay between publication in the scientific literature after appearing in a patent is less or equal to a given number of years (green all 130 interaction pairs, orange 67 pairs with patents published before July 2005, blue 63 pairs with patents published after June 2005)Back to article page
