Examiner Pei Yong Weng has allowed 570 of 699 decided applications (82%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Pei Yong Weng maintains a public record of 739 total applications across 3 art units within Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Of 699 disposed applications, 570 were allowed, yielding an allowance rate of 82%. The examiner's allowance rate varies across art units, ranging from 77% to 99%. This pooled record reflects decisions made across multiple art units and does not indicate the outcome of any individual application.
A pooled record aggregates data across multiple art units, combining different subject areas and examination contexts. The overall allowance rate of 82% describes historical decisions on disposed applications and is not a prediction for any specific case. The range of 77% to 99% across art units reflects variation in the examiner's record by subject area. Pooled figures provide aggregate context only and do not determine the path or result of any particular application.
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.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 269 decided applications with an interview and 259 without.
Primarily examines artificial-intelligence and machine-learning methods.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 67 decided applications with an interview and 72 without.
Based on 32 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Pei Yong Weng 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: 739 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.
