Semantic candidate↔role ranking via transformer embeddings (US11403597B2 design-around)
Rank a candidate pool against a role by cosine similarity of TRANSFORMER CONTEXTUAL EMBEDDINGS (dense sentence/text embeddings of role + candidate skill/experience text). IP-clean design-around of in-force US11403597B2 — the representation is a dense contextual embedding, explicitly NOT the patent's topic-model (LDA bag-of-words) document vector, and the rank is cosine, NOT token-set overlap. The dense-embedding complement to the PAT-204 token-overlap two-sided matcher (not a fork). Embedding-provider-agnostic: precomputed embeddings OR a pluggable Embedder port with a deterministic mock fallback.

Maturity evidence
- Functioning
- core/semantic-ranking.ts (cosine over contextual embeddings, deterministic mock embedder + pluggable port) + REST + MCP (job-family-agent.semantic-rank) wired from one contract; 7 passing tests (npm run test:semantic-rank), changed-files typecheck clean, check:spokes + check:standards green.
- Valuable
- IP-clean ranking routed from the patent-radar sweep; complements the PAT-204 token-overlap matcher with semantic recall. No live consumer yet, and IN-FORCE patent — pending legal review on the non-infringement path before any commercial use.
- Understood
- docs/PATENT-RADAR-US11403597B2-TRIAGE.md (claim vs design-around table, synthesis decision, provider seam) + spoke README section with mermaid.
- Integrated
- REST + MCP from one declaration on branch feat/semantic-candidate-ranking-us11403597b2 (PR open, NOT merged); reuses the two-sided ProfileSide vocabulary. No live consumer wiring yet.
