[Objective] This paper designs a cross-language recommendation model for patents based on text semantic representation, aiming to reduce the number of bilingual dictionaries and large-scale corpus, as well as improve the ability of domain adaptation.[Methods] First, we designed a word vector mapping method with unsupervised cross-language algorithm. Then, we mapped Chinese and English word vectors to the unified semantic vector space with linear transformation, which constructed the semantic mapping relationship between Chinese and English words. Third, we created semantic representation of patent texts based on cross-language word vector with smooth inverse frequency (SIF) reweighting method. It realized the semantic representation of Chinese-English patent texts in the same vector space. Finally, we calculated the semantic similarity between patent texts and recommend the cross-language patents.[Results] We examined the proposed method with patents on “wireless communication” and the recommendation accuracy rate of the top 1 and the top 5 reached 55.63% and 77.82%, which were 0.66% and 1.45% higher than those of the weak supervised based cross-language recommendation. They were also 4.29% and 3.90% better than the machine translation based ones.[Limitations] We only examined the proposed method with Chinese and English patents from one specific field.[Conclusions] This proposed method could recommend Chinese and English patents effectively, which help future research in cross-language patent recommendations.
