This adjustment may be needed, as ClaimMaster might occasionally make a mistake when grouping terms, which could result in falsely reported or unreported missing antecedents. Usually this happens because of the ambiguous claim language. For example, when encountering a phrase \u201cpacket receiving device driver,\u201d ClaimMaster might break up this phrase into two separate sections: \u201cpacket\u201d and \u201cdevice driver,\u201d even though you likely intended the whole phrase to be a single reference term. To remedy these types of issues, you can force the software to parse terms according to your preferences using a few simple parsing rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-how-to wp-block-yoast-how-to-block\"><p class=\"schema-how-to-description\">To modify Antecedent Basis parsing rules, follow these steps:<\/p> <ol class=\"schema-how-to-steps\"><li class=\"schema-how-to-step\" id=\"how-to-step-1587756910149\"><strong class=\"schema-how-to-step-name\">Open Antecedent Basis Settings<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-how-to-step-text\">Click on the <em>Preferences<\/em>, then <em>Configure AB Checking Settings:<\/em><br\/><br\/><em> <\/em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"455\" height=\"188\" src=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/NewItem685.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/NewItem685.png 455w, https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/NewItem685-300x124.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 455px) 100vw, 455px\" \/><br\/><br\/>You can also access the same settings directly from the Antecedent Basis dialog by clicking on the <em>Settings <\/em>button.<\/p> <\/li><li class=\"schema-how-to-step\" id=\"how-to-step-1587757149256\"><strong class=\"schema-how-to-step-name\">Specify Your Settings<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-how-to-step-text\">Once the rules dialog opens, you can specify the following AB parsing rules:<br\/><br\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"361\" height=\"111\" src=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/NewItem686.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/NewItem686.png 361w, https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/NewItem686-300x92.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 361px) 100vw, 361px\" \/><br\/><br\/><strong>1.

Grouping terms together - if ClaimMaster prematurely stops parsing before the end of the entire intended phrase (e.g., parsing \"packet\" and \u201cdevice driver\u201d instead of \"packet receiving device driver\"), simply list the entire desired term and the software will not break it up. Note that certain words, such as \u201cthe\u201d or \u201csaid\u201d will still cause the parser to break up longer expressions into smaller groups if such expressions are encountered in the middle of the full expression.2. Dropping a term from the end of the phrase - if ClaimMaster is being overly aggressive when joining terms together (e.g., \"server system controls\" instead of \"server system\"), then specify the point where the phrase should stop with the \"\/\/\" sign. For example, when you specify \"server system \/\/ controls\", ClaimMaster will group \"server system,\" but not \"controls.\"3. Always ignoring the term - you can also exclude any last word(s) in multi-word phrases by marking off the word with \"\/\/\". You can exclude entire phrases from being parsed by using the same technique."}],"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/adjusting-antecedent-basis-parsing-rules\/#schema-image-213f9b50c71147f74b3a2ca7551abb96","url":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/NewItem686.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/NewItem686.png","width":361,"height":111}},{"@type":"HowToStep","url":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/adjusting-antecedent-basis-parsing-rules\/#how-to-step-1587757166504","name":"Save Settings","itemListElement":[{"@type":"HowToDirection","text":"Click on Save Settings button to save your AB parsing preferences."}]}],"inLanguage":"en-US"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1143"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1143\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2277,"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1143\/revisions\/2277"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1146"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.patentclaimmaster.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
