Examiner Phoebe X Pan has allowed 117 of 248 decided applications (47%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Phoebe X Pan maintains a public record across five art units in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Over 248 disposed applications, the examiner's allowance rate is 47%. This rate reflects 117 allowed applications and 131 abandoned applications. The allowance rate varies across the art units served, ranging from 41% to 63%. The examiner's record spans art units 2142, 2171, 2176, 2178, and 2179 within TC 2100.
This profile aggregates Pan's record across five separate art units in TC 2100. The pooled allowance rate (47%) represents a historical average of decided outcomes and does not predict results in any particular application. Cross-art-unit records combine different subject matters and examination patterns; the range from 41% to 63% reflects variation among individual art units. These figures describe what has occurred, not what will occur.
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 neural-network / biological-model computing, and machine learning.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 103 decided applications with an interview and 44 without.
Primarily examines general computer details, and program control and execution.
Based on 46 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Based on 9 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Based on 1 applications — too small a sample to characterize the rejection mix reliably; shown for completeness.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Phoebe X Pan 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: 281 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.
