Examiner Yao D Huang has allowed 86 of 134 decided applications (64%) in Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security.
Yao D Huang maintains a public record in Technology Center 2100 (Computer Architecture, Software, and Information Security). Across 161 total applications, 134 have been disposed. Of those 134 decided applications, 86 were allowed, corresponding to an allowance rate of 64%. The examiner's record spans a single art unit.

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.

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Yao D Huang 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: 161 applications.
