English term or phrase: non-patent prior art
ii. Backward Citations. Another potential clue is the number of other patents that the patent at issue cites. This is often called references or backward citations. The results here are a bit murkier. Intuitively one would expect that the more references a patent makes, the more likely it is to be valid. On the other hand, patents are often invalidated based on non-patent prior art, such that patent references are less indicative of value. Some studies have found the number of references to be statistically representative of value,285 but other measures in the same studies refute this finding.286 One study found that the number of references was not statistically different between valuable patents and the general population.287 Indeed, another study found that, as compared with once-litigated patents, heavily litigated patents are much less likely to win in court, despite having more references.288 This undermines the use of backward citations for valuation. These criticisms of backward citations are unsurprising, given evidence that patent examiners simply do not read references cited by patent applicants.289
