The above process is shown referring also to Fig. 2, wherein, Fig. 2 shows data acquisition discussed above.Fig. 2 left columns In client computer specify the application that can be run in mobile equipment 1, and right column is specified and can serviced in one or more The process run on device (such as server 7 in Fig. 1).
Collection (the clothes as the part of the present invention of the data can be performed in client-side or in server side Business), to be automatically created point of interest at the position of certain content and (believe position to have input particular search query or request Breath).As the part of the present invention, particular search query is being inputted with average level more than other search inquiries or content Position preferably create positional information.As the part of the present invention, on the component for such as moving the display in equipment Point of interest is relatively presented with its position.A kind of possible realize is that graphic element is shown on map, similar to referred to as The application of Google Maps.Alternatively possible realization is to provide the enhancing with the graphic element being suspended at interested position Real user interface 13.Augmented reality interface can use translucent display, this allows to see real world and information at the same time. Augmented reality interface can record real world, and hybrid camera image and positional information using video camera 11.Enhancing Reality interface can also use projecting apparatus and project to positional information on neighbouring surface.
Location determining device 12 for example can be global positioning system.Further, it is possible to use camera apparatus, to extract The position of mobile equipment and/or orientation, and appropriate position instruction is generated according to the position and/or orientation.Furthermore it is possible to root According to other information (such as the network cell that user is being currently used, or search inquiry in itself in position indicating) draw The position of mobile equipment.In some cases, can be by position data (it includes the position instruction, or according to the position Indicate what is drawn) it is sent to mobile equipment from server.
The embodiment of possible position data generation is described in more detail now according to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4.
According to step 1.0, if also without display the user any data interested, the use at the position of user (if data are existing, the user can be grasped according to the step 6 in Fig. 3 for family input search phrase or network address Make).
According to step 1.5, position data is then taken that.In the presence of many possibilities for obtaining position data, for example, passing through collection Into the sensor (for example, GPS) being either attached into mobile equipment on local device or by surrounding environment The sensor (for example, motion tracking system) monitored to mobile equipment, or the integrated video camera using mobile equipment Or the optical tracking system that is attached in mobile equipment.In addition, position data can be only latitude and longitude, or can be with It is dimension, longitude and height above sea level, or can is x, y, z coordinate.Position data can also include the position with equipment and orientation 6 frees degree.Orientation can be one-dimensional, two-dimentional or three-dimensional.Can also according to different types of sensor or Optical tracking algorithm obtains orientation, this is known in the prior art.Position that can also be according to mobile equipment in a network Put to draw the position.Position data could also be from the combination of sensing data, and could also be from mathematical model (such as Motion model) combination.Many possibilities are known in the prior art.Position (and orientation) can also include uncertainty Value, this is also known in the prior art.Position data (it alternatively has uncertainty) is sent to server, wherein, should Position data includes search phrase or network address, and alternatively includes other information, as age of user or user description (such as If fruit provides).In the case where carrying out data acquisition, each request can be directed to and obtain position data, or if user Display is used and there are newest position data value, then can reuse newest value.Displaying data In the case of, whenever from when obtaining position data for providing the tracking system of position data, it is possible to constantly to server The position data is sent, location updating can be either sent after moving for a distance or if client computer is being moved Go out the coverage of map (client computer receives the map from server), then send location updating.It can realize very much Possibility.
According to step 2.0, subsequent input data in the database, to be used by step 3.Can only interpolation data, Such as data base querying can be performed, so as to find similar record and increase hit count (as described above). Data can include all types of information, such as search inquiry or network address, position, uncertainty, orientation, current time, use Family information, cookies, Internet protocol (ip), device identification (equipment id), and for search engine and information system It is common and for the prior art known many other information.Additional information may for example be used for identification search meeting Words, or information is filtered according to user intention.System can also select to ignore the inquiry for appearing to be from robot or script.
Step 3.0 is similarly used in figs. 2 and 3.Usually, these steps can be performed according to the request of user Suddenly, either these steps can be performed when inputting new data or when the CPU of server has the ability for safeguarding map. Some maps can also be created and prepared, and are for example made choice according to the position of user from pre-recorded map.
Following steps description creates the exemplary embodiment of map.
3.1 systems select to remember in the particular range near the current location of mobile equipment from the data largely collected The data of record.This can by algorithm well known in the prior art and data structure (such as kd trees, r trees or only filtering pass through Angle value and latitude value (and alternatively filtering altitude value)) realize.The scope can by user or administrator configuring or The smallest record quantity that can be wanted to consider according to user calculates, and minimum number can also be matched somebody with somebody by user or administrator Put.In addition, not only can be with use scope, but also (volume or 3d pairs can be either used in 3D using specific region As).For example, user can be configured to be used only in the information collected " in the building that I is currently located ".On The information in these regions can store in the database, or the information can be from any other location-based information system Obtain.The configuration of user can be considered during map building, or can consider matching somebody with somebody for user during navigation process later Put.During data select, position not only can be contemplated, but also be also conceivable to recorded additional information, such as session data. For example, can only consider the final search inquiry of search sessions, or the repetition inquiry of identical equipment can be ignored.
3.2 next, if language allows mild and indirect expression for identical inquiry with different expression or the language Search inquiry, then can be converted into intermediate language (neutral language) form by (flectional expression). It is also possible to using antistop list, so as to which synonym is translated into a common word (for example, " mobile pc " and " portable pc”).In addition, as set forth above, it is possible to simplify and adjustment network address is to keep more general form, for example, by cut out agreement or Remove top level domain or combination.
3.3 now, may create position data with different algorithms.Simplest scheme be for each search inquiry or Each document request creates a location data points.Location data points represent search inquiry or document request (network address), especially Indicate to place or show the search inquiry or document request where in display area or go display area.
3.4 can replace step 3.3 using more complicated algorithm (for example, clustering algorithm), wherein, which makes Particular search query or network address more than one record (record if more than one) can be gathered into one or Multiple aggregates, the one or more aggregate is also known as location data points (LDP) by us.
A:Deleted from set with more than Configuration Values (for example, 20 meters) probabilistic all measurement results (if There are uncertain data).
B:The equally distributed starting point since 1 on actionradius come run mean shift algorithm (referring to Comaniciu, D and Meer, " the Mean Shift of P:A Robust Approach Toward Feature Space Analysis ", IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, the 24th Volume, the 5th phase, in May, 2002), to find the quantity of significant cluster., can be with the article of Comaniciu and Meer Bandwidth is selected according to 3.1, such as the algorithm is run multiple times by the bandwidth with change, and selects that there is maximum opereating specification Bandwidth, wherein, the quantity of cluster is kept constant in the opereating specification (has been presented in Fig. 6 the example for the above Property output, wherein it 0.9 is good bandwidth to specify.In figure 6, the heavy point in the central area of lattice array is represented exemplary Each center of the cluster shown in coordinate system, wherein, such as described below according to step 3.5, which can be by It is considered as LDP).
C:Now, which can stop or can be moved directly to D), but, which can also be calculated by operation one Method is refined, and wherein the algorithm is proposed by documents below:Chau, M., Cheng, R., Kao, B and Ng, Jackey's “Uncertain Data Mining:An Example in Clustering Location Data ", Lecture Notes In Computer Science, Advances in Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, 3918/2006 Volume, page 199 to page 204:Springer Berlin/Heidelberg, 2006.The survey deleted from A is further contemplated at this time Amount for individually uncertain as a result, wherein it is possible to consider each measurement result.The cluster established in B can be used Quantity.Another in the present invention realize, without considering step A and step B, process can be started with step C, wherein, make With the article and Pelleg, D and Moore of Chau etc. the, " X-Means of A:Extending k-means with efficient The mixing of estimation of the number of clusters ".
D:Now, it is alternatively possible to calculate the uncertainty (for example, by formula in Fig. 7) of obtained cluster.Such as The algorithm that fruit used in the past does not return to center, then can calculate center as in given formula (Fig. 7).
3.5 after step 3.3 or step 3.4, we obtain the location data points (LDP) with count value, wherein, should Count value instruction how many data acquisition systems are responsible for the establishment of data point.Using the information, data point at the position can be calculated Importance.Possible formula is the (quantity of ad hoc inquiry or the data acquisition system of data-minimum response value-part cost (local penalty))/quantity of total data that collects in a particular area) * overall situation costs (global penalty).Wherein, minimum response value can be the value by user or administrator configurations, or the minimum response value can basis The sums of location data points in specific region is drawn.If for example, the data point in the region were considerably less, minimum response Value can be with vanishing.Wherein, local cost can be on the occasion of or negative value, this depend on user mutual (judge LDP whether with position It is consistent), wherein cost either can be closed or opened by administrator by user.Wherein, the institute collected in a particular area The quantity for having data can be the summation of the record from step 1, alternatively, the quantity can be in present bit with different radiuses Put or steep whole search inquiries or net that the immediate vicinity of (blob) (somewhat similar conversation bubble (speech bubble)) obtains The quantity of page, wherein, the radius can be configured by user or administrator.Usually, collect in a particular area The quantity of all data be intended to consider the position such as waiting area, wherein in this position, people more frequently use internet Or information system.Wherein, ad hoc inquiry and data in all data acquisition systems that global cost can be recorded according to being stored in Percentage show that and global cost can be used for avoiding very common and unrelated with position data or inquiry (such as “www.google.com" or with "www.google.com" start URL) high weight.Global cost can be according to such aswww.alexa.comThe page draw, wherein, the page oneself assesses the number gone to website or used in the system According to the overall traffic (referring to the formula of Fig. 8) in storehouse.The figure that these formula can be seen in fig. 8 represents.Can be according to whole The data of type create local cost.If for example, website or search inquiry element only activated in short time and with After be deactivated, then the above process shows that this information seems interesting because of title, but true really not so.Separately On the one hand, if user opens the webpage long period, this may be that the website is voted for.In addition, viewer can have The selection voted on one's own initiative information provider, and when calculating local cost consider these ballots (negative vote is praised Into ticket).Local cost can be stored as holding position, search phrase or webpage and the number of uncertainty (it is alternatively kept) According to the separate records in storehouse, and local cost can be included in group mechanism, wherein local cost is by short as searching for Language or webpage are recorded to handle and be counted in step 3.5.Alternatively, local cost can be in the form of additional information variable Applied to the relevant all records of LDP.
In order to become apparent from the step, Fig. 8 keeps the example table with two exemplary L DP.Such as search terms First LDP of " banana (banana) " (it includes the search terms such as " bananas ") has been searched 6 times.Another LDP (for example, Websitewww.metaio.de) be concerned 8 times.Because only existing the two records in this region, the note in the region The sum of record is 14.System has minimum response 1, therefore, it is all be not more than the record that can find of 1 chance or with Cluster less than 2 records will cause 0 correlation or negative correlation.However, there are more values.See at the position Search terms " bananas " and think that its two significant user has thrown affirmative vote (for example, by AR for the LDP Interacted in view with the LDP and enclose heart symbol), and local cost reduces.One user is not considered as website metaio(www.metaio.deOrwww.metaio.comOr www.metaio.com/examples/index.html) intentionally Justice, and another user pays close attention to the website, but it has been solely focused on the very short time (for example, 2 seconds).Then, user's example As clicked on " returning to search button " to browse other possibilities.Therefore, the local cost of metatio is 2.By these values (for example, 6-1+1) divided by 14.Find out from these values, " banana " is more more relevant than metaio.Another value is added now. Another value is global cost, and its help is filtered out and always fairly frequently used and it is therefore more likely that can be in office The website where just found or search terms.In this case, this does not also agree with forming 1% of all records in database (4) metaio.Therefore, in the case where being 20 for the weight of global cost, the correlation of metaio reduces by 0.2.From client computer To any data of server transmission (either on the contrary) previously data can be compressed or be encrypted or the two is simultaneous Have.
4. now, in step 4, according to importance or weight, (server side or client-side) system can be with By different quality (size, color, in the form of, etc.) display LDP, or can determine not show LDP (if for example, Relevance values are less than specific value, such as 0,2)., can be in a different manner as described in the other parts in this application Show LDP.
The mode of display LDP might also depend on cluster uncertainty (according to 3.4D) or position it is current accurate Property, wherein these values are obtainable for the mobile equipment of display data.If the information on cluster is very uncertain, or The position of mobile equipment is very inaccurate or uncertain, then LDP may be displayed differently from, for example, LDP is shown as browser side On 2d lists.
The mode of display LDP might also depend on the type (inquiry or request of data) of LDP.
In the case of LDP is inquired about, last set result can be shown (for example, from excellent on one's own initiative near inquiry LDP First result of first level list).In a kind of realization of the present invention, server database can also store the webpage once opened Amount, wherein, these webpages belong to the particular search query in specific location or region.Then, this information can be used for drawing Divide the priority (alternatively, local cost can also be influenced in steps of 5) of search result.In addition, if website is chosen to obtain frequency It is numerous to the LDP for being enough to create their own, then it may not be shown as the result in search listing.
In the case of data LDP, can by way of similar icon display data preview (for example, film is fast According to or website picture).
It is alternatively possible to show other LDP (such as advertisement), wherein, these LDP meet certain types of search inquiry Or specific request of data.These can be provided from the storage device of any type of database or location dependent data LDP。
If location data points (LDP) have identical or very close center each other, known in the state of the art Intelligent algorithm can rearrange their position.For example, if two LDP intersect, the two LDP centers are being connected These LDP are made to be moved away from each other on axis so that they are no longer intersecting.
5. the mode of display might also depend on user and select (step 5).For example, user can configure some contents, such as " only showing maximally related 5 ".Then, system will select the LDP with 5 best results and show them.User also may be used To select to filter display according to other values (at the time of in one day as recorded data or working day).Alternatively, user can be with Selection only shows the data from specific crowd, wherein, specific crowd selection provides data (such as age in its archives Or the member of particular cluster).If the record of the particular percentile in data, such as the cluster is provided using clustering algorithm It must comply with the filter.If creating map according to user's request in step 3, step 3.1 can also filter immediately Data.
6. in step 6, user can select search phrase LDP or directly select the icon of network address.If select net Location, then we immediately pass to the step 10 in Fig. 3, and without considering step 7,8 and 9.Pass well known in the prior art can be passed through Realize that LDP is selected in the various ways of text, 2D interfaces or 3D interfaces.If user selects the LDP of search inquiry, to searching Index holds up transmission inquiry (step 7) and shows the results list, this can also realize (step 8) in a number of different ways. As the possibility embodiment of the present invention, step 7 and 8 can also be performed in the case where user does not select search phrase LDP.System Search result can be obtained on one's own initiative for all visible search inquiry LDP, and they can be shown by certain mode, Such as they are shown as the icon near LDP in a manner of 3D, wherein the line with connection LDP and the icon.
9. in step 9, then obtain the network address if selected for network address and can notify the situation to server 7, should Server 7 is stored that information in data repository 4.
10. in step 10, after the page is obtained, the page can be browsed by different modes:From standard web page Browsed in browser view, substitute scouting screen to be browsed, is clear to carrying out on the 3D panels that there is information above Look at, many situations are all possible.In order to terminate to browse, user can close browser view, or can close AR coverings 3D panels in figure (by interacting).
11. alternatively, when closing the page or no longer browsing pages (for example, by leaving the page in AR views Face), the time of browsing pages can also be sent to server, and can influence local cost and (be browsed for the short time Situation value added, or reduced value in the case of browsing for a long time).
It should be noted that after it there is the time specified (for example, one month or 1 year), can be from search and content Deletion record in data repository.The time specified can also depend on the number of all data collected in a particular area Amount.If the quantity of all data collected in a particular area is very small, which can be longer.
Specific range can be moved in user, and (Fig. 3, after step 1), continually calculates all in client-side immediately Above step, or all above steps can be calculated in server side.Additionally, it is not necessary to ask to calculate according to each user LDP.Furthermore, it is possible to for example create the map of LDP at night, and sent to client computer interested comprising these LDP Data structure.What these client computer then can show according to respective setting to calculate.
