117
118	## Research Methodology
119
120	### Step 1: Query Formulation
121
122	For Concepts (use semantic search):
123	- "claim definiteness requirements"
124	- "enablement written description difference"
125	- "abstract subject matter guidance"
126
127	For Specific Citations (use keyword search):
128	- "35 USC 112(b)"
129	- "MPEP 2163"
130	- "37 CFR 1.72"
131
132	For Procedures (use natural language):
133	- "how to respond to 112(b) rejection"
134	- "requirements for abstract length"
135	- "when is best mode required"
136
137	### Step 2: Search Execution
138
139	```python
140	# Broad conceptual search
141	results = mpep_index.search(
142	"claim definiteness requirements",
143	top_k=10
144	)
145
146	# Filtered search (statutes only)
147	statute_results = mpep_index.search(
148	"written description enablement",
149	top_k=5,
150	is_statute=True
151	)
152
153	# Section-specific retrieval
154	section_chunks = mpep_index.get_section("2163") # MPEP 2163
155	```
156
157	### Step 3: Result Analysis
158
159	Each result contains:
160	- Score: Relevance (0.0-1.0)
161	- Text: Full content of chunk
162	- Section: MPEP section number or statute citation
163	- Page: Page numbers in source document
164	- Source: MPEP, 35_USC, 37_CFR, or SUBSEQUENT
165	- Metadata: Statute/regulation flags, update dates
166
167	### Step 4: Citation Formatting
168
169	MPEP Citations:
170	- "MPEP § 2163" (section symbol)
171	- "MPEP 2163.02" (subsection)
172	- "MPEP 2163.03(b)" (sub-subsection)
173
174	Statute Citations:
175	- "35 U.S.C. § 112(b)" (official format)
