As determined by experts

Это называется просто INVENTION EVALUATION. Или даже просто EVALUATION

Вот объяснение:

INVENTION EVALUATION
by Robert M. Hunter, Registered Patent Agent

Evaluation is an important activity in the process of securing patent protection. The results of some evaluations inform decision-makers determining whether to file for a patent in particular jurisdictions. The results of others provide important information about how and when to prepare patent applications.
The preparation of three types of evaluation documents is supported. Each document contains information about a particular, named invention and (when completed) contains a preliminary conclusion with respect to the subject of the evaluation. A U.S. Patentability Evaluation is used to gather the information that is needed to determine whether the invention is patentable (i.e., useful, novel, and non-obvious) under U.S. law. A PCT Patentability Evaluation is used to extract the information needed to determine whether the invention appears to satisfy the criteria of novelty, inventive step (non-obviousness) and industrial applicability as those terms are used in an International Preliminary Examination Report. (Because an international patent does not issue from an international patent application, an invention's satisfaction of the stated critera does not guarantee that the invention will be patentable under a particular national law.) An Inventorship Evaluation is used to collect information from each alleged inventor that is needed to determine whether this person qualifies as an inventor of the invention under U.S. law.

In my opinion, квалификационной is redundant here: экспертизa is by definition the study of a question by qualified persons (= experts).

conclusion is drawn based on the expert study
