Examiner Phuong N Hoang has allowed 322 of 445 decided applications (72%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Phuong N Hoang maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security) across 2 art units (2126, 2194). Over 445 disposed applications, the examiner has allowed 322 and abandoned 123, yielding an overall allowance rate of 72%. The total applications in the record number 479. This pooled figure reflects the examiner's combined activity across both art units and represents decisions reached to date; it is a description of past outcomes, not a prediction for any individual application.
This record aggregates the examiner's activity across multiple art units within TC 2100. The 72% allowance rate is computed from all decided applications (allowed and abandoned combined) pooled across both units. Pooled rates describe historical patterns and do not forecast the outcome of any specific application. Individual art-unit records, where available separately, may show variation from the pooled figure.
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 program control and execution.
Allowance rate for applications with an examiner interview versus without one.
A correlation, not proof that interviews cause allowances. Based on 277 decided applications with an interview and 160 without.
Primarily examines neural-network / biological-model computing, and machine learning.
Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Phuong N Hoang 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: 479 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.
