====About the scripts====
There are currently 5 .pm files: PatentApplication.pm, Inventor.pm, Claim.pm, and Addressbook.pm, and Loader.pm
Each of the first 4 represents an Object type. The last one
Example Usage:
perl PatentParser.pl -file=ipa150319.xml
This will parse the xml file with name ipa150319.xml, extract all the Patents (in this case PatentApplications) each as a temporary xml file, and then, using a Loader object with a specified
schema file, in this case "us-patent-application-v44-2014-04-03.dtd" to be able to extract each of the 4 object types from the Patents.
If any error happened during the parsing of any file, that file will be moved to a directory called "failed_files". Most likely if a file failed the parsing it is likely not a Utility patent.
