Mo Group's Compound Retention-Time and Half-Peak-Width Dataset Completes Shenzhen's First Data IP Registration in AI for Science
Recently, under the guidance of the Shenzhen Institute of Standards and Technology, Peking University Shenzhen Graduate School (PKUSZ) completed the data intellectual-property (IP) registration for its independently developed “Compound Retention Time and Half-Peak Width Detection Data” and received the certificate—becoming the first data IP registration case in the AI for Science field among Shenzhen universities and research institutes, and PKUSZ’s first such registration.
Dataset Overview
The registered dataset originates from Prof. Mo Fanyang’s group and its independent research in liquid chromatography. It compiles 4,500 detection records across two mainstream column types (T3 and C18), integrating 13 core fields including compound molecular structure, chromatographic conditions, retention time, and half-peak width into a traceable and reusable, high-quality structured data resource.
The team systematically organized the experimental data through report parsing, cross-channel peak matching, target peak identification, and structure–information association. The dataset provides a foundation for chromatographic behavior analysis, retention-time and peak-width prediction model development, and intelligent optimization of experimental conditions, supporting the shift toward a “data-driven, intelligent analysis” research paradigm in chemistry, materials, biology, and related fields.
Institutional Value
Data IP registration fully records key information such as data source, application scenario, processing rules, and rights holder—serving as a valid credential for innovators to hold, use, co-develop, and legally protect their data. This registration converts data that previously lay dormant as paper appendices in the lab into a legally protected data asset that can be licensed, shared collaboratively, and valued for research commercialization—complementing patents and software copyrights.
The case also exemplifies the full-lifecycle IP empowerment under PKUSZ’s SIGMA Innovation Leap Program: with the dedicated support of the Office of Research / Technology Transfer Center, the entire process was completed with zero errors and passed on the first attempt, taking only 5 days from submission to certificate issuance.
