Examiner Anna Chen Deng has allowed 846 of 942 decided applications (90%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Anna Chen Deng maintains a public record across 2 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 942 disposed applications, the examiner has allowed 846 and abandoned 96, yielding an allowance rate of 90%. This rate is computed from decided applications only and does not reflect pending filings. The record spans art units 2191 and 2192, aggregated here as a pooled profile. These figures represent the examiner's past dispositions and are factual historical data only.
A pooled record aggregates outcomes across multiple art units, reflecting an examiner's overall pattern of allowance and abandonment within the technology center. The allowance rate (90%) describes historical decisions on applications already disposed, not a prediction for any specific pending or future application. Each art unit may have distinct characteristics; this pooled view provides a broad institutional snapshot without per-unit breakdown.
These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →
Each section benchmarks this examiner against that art unit's average. Figures are this examiner's own public record within the art unit; the overall rate above pools them.
Primarily examines software engineering, and error detection, correction, and monitoring.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 417 decided applications with an interview and 524 without.
Primarily examines software engineering.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Anna Chen Deng has a public record within Technology Center 2100. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated June 25, 2026. The overall allowance rate is total allowed divided by total decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) across all art units — not an average of the per-art-unit rates; pending applications are excluded. Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 942 applications.

These statistics describe past examiner behavior and do not predict the outcome of any particular application. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes. Where this page compares an examiner's allowance rate to an art-unit average, that comparison is a factual description of the public record, not a characterization of any individual examiner's conduct or competence.
