Description

Searching method, device and equipment

Technical Field

The present invention relates to the field of data processing technologies, and in particular, to a search method, apparatus, and device.

Background

Currently, many applications are capable of providing text translation functionality. The applications can acquire a word to be translated input by a user, inquire explanation information corresponding to the word to be translated and present the explanation information to the user. Existing applications can only search for the user for explanatory information for one word at a time. However, in many cases, the user needs to inquire the explanation information of a plurality of different words, and especially, the user may compare and distinguish the explanations of a plurality of similar words. In these cases, since the application can search only one word of explanatory information at a time, the query operation of the user is very cumbersome. For example, if the user needs to search for the explanatory information of the word a and the word B, the user needs to input the word a first so that the application searches for the explanatory information of the word a, then delete the word a and input the word B so that the application searches for the explanatory information of the word B. If the word a and the word B are two different words with similar meanings, the user may need to check the interpretation information of the word a again after the application searches the interpretation information of the word B in order to compare and distinguish the word a and the word B, and at this time, the user also needs to delete the word B and input the word a again so that the application searches the interpretation information of the word a again.

Detailed Description

In order to make the technical solutions of the present invention better understood, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The inventor has found that in the prior art, the application can only search the explanation information of one word for the user at a time. But users sometimes need to query for explanatory information for a number of different words. For example, if the user needs to query the explanatory information of the word a and the word B, the user needs to input the word a first so that the application searches the explanatory information of the word a, then delete the word a and input the word B so that the application searches the explanatory information of the word B. Therefore, in the prior art, when the interpretation information of a plurality of different words needs to be queried, the query operation of the user is very complicated.

In order to solve the above problem, in the embodiment of the present invention, a user may input a plurality of objects to be translated in a certain separation manner, and an application may recognize the plurality of objects to be translated input by the user in the separation manner of the objects to be translated under user operation, so that the application may search for interpretation information of the plurality of objects to be translated and present the interpretation information to the user. For example, if a user needs to query the interpretation information of the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated, the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated can be input into the application together, and the application can search the interpretation information of the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated at the same time and present the same to the user. Therefore, the user can search and view the interpretation information of a plurality of objects to be translated at the same time, and does not need to input and view the interpretation information for each object to be translated respectively, so that the query operation of the user is simplified.

For example, embodiments of the present invention may be applied to a scenario as shown in FIG. 1. In this scenario, the user terminal 101 and the server 103 may interact with each other via the network 102. First, in response to a user operation for inputting an object to be translated, the user terminal 101 may identify a first object to be translated and a second object to be translated from input contents under the user operation in a manner of separating the objects to be translated under the user operation. Then, the user terminal 101 can upload the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated to the server 103 through the network 102. The server 103 may query interpretation information of the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated and present the query result on the user terminal 101.

It is understood that the user terminal 101 may be an existing, developing or future developed user device with camera functionality capable of interacting with the server 103 through any form of wired and/or wireless connection (e.g., Wi-Fi, LAN, cellular, coaxial cable, etc.), including but not limited to: existing, developing, or future developed smartphones, non-smartphones, tablet computers, and the like.

Further, the server 103 is only one example of an existing, developing, or future developed device capable of querying translation or interpretation information of an object to be translated and presenting the result to a user. The embodiments of the invention are not limited in any way in this respect.

It is to be appreciated that in the application scenarios described above, while the actions of the embodiments of the present invention are described as being performed in part by the user terminal 101 and in part by the server 103, the actions may be performed entirely by the user terminal 101 or entirely by the server 103. The invention is not limited in its implementation to the details of execution, provided that the acts disclosed in the embodiments of the invention are performed.

It should be noted that the above application scenarios are only presented to facilitate understanding of the present invention, and the embodiments of the present invention are not limited in any way in this respect. Rather, embodiments of the present invention may be applied to any scenario where applicable.

Various non-limiting embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Exemplary method

Referring to fig. 2, a flowchart of a searching method in the embodiment of the present invention is shown. In this embodiment, the method may include, for example, the steps of:

s201, responding to a user operation of inputting an object to be translated, and identifying a first object to be translated and a second object to be translated from input contents under the user operation according to a separation mode of the object to be translated under the user operation.

In specific implementation, a user inputs a first object to be translated and a second object to be translated in an input box according to a certain separation mode, and an application can recognize the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated which are input by the user from the content input by the user in the input box.

The application may be an APP, such as a hundred degree translation APP, a track translation APP, and the like. The user opens the APP, a first object to be translated and a second object to be translated are input into an input box of the APP, and the APP can identify the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated which are input by the user from the content input into the input box.

The application may also be a web page, such as a dog search web page, a hundred degree search web page, and the like. The user opens the webpage, and inputs the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated in the input box of the webpage, and the webpage can identify the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated which are input by the user from the content input in the input box.

The method for inputting the object to be translated by the user can be manually inputting a text of the object to be translated, or photographing the object to be translated. That is, the user operation may be an operation of the user inputting a text or an operation of the user capturing an image.

When the user operation is an operation of inputting a text by a user, the input content under the user operation may be the text input by the user. In this case, a plurality of separation methods may be used to separate the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated from the text input by the user.

As an example, the separation manner may be that, in the input content under the user operation, a separation symbol is provided between the first to-be-translated object and the second to-be-translated object, and the separation symbol is located between the first to-be-translated object and the second to-be-translated object. The separation symbol may be a comma, a pause, or the like separation symbol input by the user.

For example, what the user needs to query may be the explanation information of the words "smile" and "laugh", where "smile" may be the first object to be translated and "laugh" may be the second object to be translated. When a user inputs two words, namely "smile" and "laugh", the user can input "smile" in the input box, then input a pause sign and "and then input another word" laugh "in the input box, that is, the input content in the input box can be" smile and "laugh", then the application can recognize "smile" and "laugh" from the input content, and can query two recognized objects to be translated simultaneously in the next step.

As another example, the dividing manner may be that the user presses a "+" shortcut key every time the user inputs an object to be translated.

For example, when the user enters two words, "smile" and "laugh," he may also first enter "smile" in the input box and then click on the "+" shortcut key to cause the application to add the word "smile" to the search list and delete "smile" in the input box. The user then enters "laugh" in the input box and clicks on the "+" shortcut to add the word "laugh" to the search list by the application. In this way, the application can recognize two objects to be translated, namely "smile" and "laugh", so that the two objects to be translated added to the search list can be simultaneously queried in the next step.

When the user operation is an operation of a user to capture an image, the input content under the user operation may be an image captured by the user. In this case, a plurality of separation means may be used to separate the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated from the image taken by the user.

As an example, the separation manner may also be that when taking a word in a word-taking box, the user presses a "+" shortcut key every time the user finishes taking a word of an object to be translated.

Take "smile" and "laugh" as examples, where "smile" may be a first object to be translated and "laugh" may be a second object to be translated. The user aligns the word taking frame with smile, shoots an image of the smile, and then clicks a '+' shortcut key, so that the smile is added into a list to be searched; and then moving the mobile phone to make the word-taking frame aligned with the 'laugh', shooting an image of the 'laugh', and clicking the '+' shortcut key to add the 'laugh' to the list to be searched, so that the application can identify two objects to be encountered, namely 'smile' and 'laugh', and simultaneously inquire the two objects to be translated in the search list.

As an example, the separation manner may be that, in the input content operated by the user, the first object to be translated is marked by a first mark symbol, and the second object to be translated is marked by the second mark symbol. The first and second reference symbols may be the same or different.

A user can mark each object to be translated which is desired to be queried by using a mark symbol, wherein the object to be translated can be a word, such as 'take'; the object to be translated may be a phrase, such as "take care of"; the object to be translated may be a phrase, such as "take the change"; the object to be translated may be a sentence, such as "We need to take care of outer books".

The marker symbol may be an underline, a circle, a marker highlight, or the like. For example, if the object to be translated is a word "take" and the mark symbol is an underline, the effect after marking may be "take". Then, the input contents under the user operation include "take", the application can recognize the mark symbol underline in the shot image, and then recognize the object to be translated"take”。

If a user needs to query the interpretation information of a plurality of words at the same time, each word can be labeled by using a label symbol, that is, one label symbol is used for labeling an object to be translated. The user shoots images of a plurality of objects to be translated with the mark symbols at the same time, and the application can identify the mark symbols and further identify a plurality of corresponding objects to be translated for inquiring and presenting the objects to be translated subsequently. As an example, the word that the user wants to query may be "smile" and "laugh", the user may mark the two words with mark symbols underlined respectively, and the image taken by the user may be "smile laugh". Wherein "smile" may be a first object to be translated, and the underline labeled "smile" may be a first marker; "laugh" may be the second object to be translated, and the underline labeled "laugh" may be the second marker. Application can recognize "smile"underlining and"laughThe two marks are underlined, and two objects to be translated, namely smile and laugh, are further identified.

S202, searching the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated to obtain first interpretation information and second interpretation information, wherein the first interpretation information is interpretation information corresponding to the first object to be translated, and the second interpretation information is interpretation information corresponding to the second object to be translated.

During specific implementation, for the identified first object to be translated and the identified second object to be translated, a user can click a search key to trigger an application to search the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated simultaneously, so as to obtain interpretation information corresponding to the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated respectively. The interpretation information can be related interpretation information such as phonetic symbol, part of speech, word meaning corresponding to the part of speech, example sentence and the like of the object to be translated.

S203, correspondingly presenting the first interpretation information and the first object to be translated, and correspondingly presenting the second interpretation information and the second object to be translated.

In order to enable a user to see the interpretation information of the first object to be translated and the interpretation information of the second object to be translated, and to distinguish the interpretation information of the first object to be translated from the interpretation information of the second object to be translated, in this embodiment, the application may present the first interpretation information in correspondence with the first object to be translated, and present the second interpretation information in correspondence with the second object to be translated.

As an example, the application may present interpretation information of a plurality of objects to be translated in the same interface, and the presentation manner may be referred to as a card-type presentation manner, for example. Referring to fig. 3, a schematic diagram of a presentation manner of the card type in the present embodiment is shown. The card-type presentation mode may specifically include: presenting the first object to be translated and the first interpretation information in a first display area; presenting the second object to be translated and the second interpretation information in a second display area; the first display area and the second display area are located in the same presentation interface.

Fig. 3 takes the objects to be translated as "book" and "door" as examples, where "book" may be the first object to be translated, and "door" may be the second object to be translated. In the presentation interface, a user input text box 301, a first display area 302, and a second display area 303 are included. In the user input text box 301, a user can perform separation in a mode of inputting commas among different objects to be translated; the first display area 302 presents first interpretation information that may be the first to-be-translated objects "book" and "book". The first interpretation information can be the first interpretation information such as the phonetic symbol, the part of speech and corresponding paraphrases of different parts of speech of the book; the second display area 303 may present second interpretation information of the second object to be translated "door" and "door". The second interpretation information may be the second interpretation information such as the phonetic symbol, the part of speech, the paraphrase corresponding to the part of speech, the network paraphrase, and the complex form of "door".

The card-type presentation manner described in this embodiment can present the plurality of objects to be translated and the interpretation information respectively corresponding to the plurality of objects to be translated to the user in the same presentation interface at the same time. For a plurality of words with similar meanings, the user can clearly see the explanation information corresponding to each word through a card type presentation mode, so that the user can distinguish and compare the words with similar meanings, and the user operation is simplified.

It can be understood that the card-type presentation mode can present the interpretation information of a plurality of objects to be translated on the same interface at the same time, so that the display area of the interpretation information of each object to be translated is relatively limited, and sometimes only part of the interpretation information of the objects to be translated can be presented. For this reason, in some embodiments, in the card-type presentation manner, only brief explanatory information of the object to be translated may be presented in the display area of the explanatory information of the object to be translated. For example, the first interpretation information may be brief interpretation information of the first object to be translated, and the second interpretation information may be brief interpretation information of the second object to be translated. Wherein, the brief information can be the paraphrase of the object to be translated.

It can be understood that, in the card-type presentation manner, in the case that the display area presents only brief explanation information of the object to be translated, if the user needs to view detailed explanation information of the object to be translated, the embodiment may provide an operation of viewing detailed explanation information of the object to be translated. Specifically, the card-type presentation manner may further include: in response to a triggering operation of viewing detailed interpretation information for a first object to be translated, expanding the first display area and presenting the detailed interpretation information of the first object to be translated in the expanded first display area; and/or expanding the second display area and presenting the detailed interpretation information of the second object to be translated in the expanded second display area in response to a trigger operation for viewing the detailed interpretation information of the second object to be translated.

The card type presentation mode only presents the brief explanation information of the object to be translated and hides other explanation information, so that a user can see the detailed explanation information of the object to be translated and can reduce the space of a presentation interface occupied by the explanation information of the object to be translated.

As an example, the application may further provide a directory of objects to be translated for the user, and the user may select an object to be translated in the directory to obtain interpretation information of the selected object to be translated, where the presentation manner may be referred to as a list-directory type presentation manner, for example. The list-directory presentation manner may specifically include: presenting the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated; presenting the first interpretation information in response to a trigger operation of viewing interpretation information for the first object to be translated; and presenting the second interpretation information in response to the trigger operation of viewing the interpretation information aiming at the second object to be translated.

As an example, the list-in-directory presentation may be such that the application presents the interpretation information to the user in a pop-up manner. Specifically, "book" may be a first object to be translated, "door" may be a second object to be translated, and after the application completes search on "book" and "door", the application presents the first object to be translated "book" and the second object to be translated "door" to the user in a list catalog; clicking "book", popping up a new interface by the application, and presenting interpretation information of "book" in the new interface to the user, wherein the interpretation information can be used as first interpretation information, and the first interpretation information can be detailed interpretation information of the first object to be translated "book"; clicking the "door", popping up a new interface by the application, and presenting interpretation information of the "door" to the user in the new interface, wherein the interpretation information can be used as second interpretation information, and the second interpretation information can be detailed interpretation information of a second object to be translated "door".

As an example, the list-directory type presentation mode may be that the application presents the interpretation information to the user in a blank area of the interface presenting the object to be translated. Specifically, after the application finishes searching for "book" and "door", the application presents a first object "book" to be translated and a second object "door" to be translated to the user, clicks "book", and presents the interpretation information of "book" to the user in a blank area of the current interface; and clicking the "door", and presenting the interpretation information of the "door" to the user by the application in the blank area of the current interface.

In some embodiments of this embodiment, in order to save the space occupied by the interpretation information, the application may further provide the user with a list of the object to be translated and a part of the interpretation information corresponding to the object to be translated, and the user may click a pull-down menu button, so as to obtain the detailed interpretation information of the object to be translated. For example, the application presents "book" and corresponding partial interpretation information, which may be part of speech, paraphrases, and "door" and corresponding partial interpretation information, to the user. If the user needs to check the detailed explanation information of the book and the door, the user clicks a pull-down menu key of the book to obtain the detailed explanation information of the book; the user clicks the drop-down menu of "door", and the detailed explanation information of "door" can be obtained.

In the embodiment, a list directory type presentation mode is adopted, a plurality of objects to be translated are presented at the same time, and each object to be translated occupies a small space, so that the plurality of objects to be translated are more easily presented to a user at one time. And then, by means of popup or pull-down menus, the purpose of simultaneously presenting the detailed explanation information respectively corresponding to the multiple objects to be translated to the user can be achieved.

It can be understood that when the application presents the interpretation information of the object to be translated to the user at the same time, there may be many paraphrases of the object to be translated, and the user may need to find the paraphrases required by the user among the many interpretation information, which may cause the user to find the paraphrases more inconveniently. Therefore, the embodiment can preferentially present the paraphrases meeting the requirements of the user according to the requirements of the user on the paraphrases.

Specifically, S203 may specifically be: preferentially presenting paraphrases matched with user-related information in a plurality of paraphrases of the first object to be translated in the first interpretation information; and preferentially presenting paraphrases with matching degrees with the user related information in a plurality of paraphrases of the second object to be translated in the second interpretation information. It is understood that the mentioned user-related information is related information that can reflect the user's paraphrasing requirements. For example, the user-related information may be a grade of the user, a research area of the user, and the like. The user-related information may be input by the user in advance when using the application, or may be determined by the application according to the paragraph where the input object to be translated is located. The preferential presentation may be to present only paraphrases matching the user-related information to the user, or may be to present paraphrases matching the user-related information in front of all explanatory information.

As an example, the information that the user previously entered when using the application is a junior first-grade student. The user inputs 'book' and 'door' in an input box of the application, and the application judges that the user is a junior-middle-grade student according to the user-related information input by the user in advance. Then, the application can preferentially present the paraphrases and related example sentences of "book" and "door" that the junior-middle-school grade students may need to the user, and avoid the user from finding the required interpretation information from a plurality of interpretation information.

As an example, the objects to be translated may be the words "interference" and "reflection" in the optical domain. When the user inputs the object to be translated by shooting the image, the content in the shot image may include the paragraph where the object to be translated is located. The application can judge that the object to be translated belongs to the optical field according to the paragraph where the object to be translated is located. Then, the application can preferentially present interpretation information of the object to be translated in the optical field, such as paraphrases and related example sentences, to the user, so that the problem that the user has difficulty in obtaining correct interpretation information of the word from a large amount of interpretation information is avoided.

Further, for the first object to be translated, it is possible to have a plurality of paraphrases in the first interpretation information thereof that can be matched with the user-related information. For multiple paraphrases for which the user-related information matches, the order of presentation may be determined according to the degree of matching. That is, S203 may also specifically be: preferentially presenting the paraphrases which are highly matched with the user-related information in the plurality of paraphrases of the first object to be translated in the first interpretation information; and preferentially presenting paraphrases with higher matching degree with the user related information in the plurality of paraphrases of the second object to be translated in the second interpretation information.

It should be noted that, in the case that the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated are identified, in addition to presenting the interpretation information of the first object to be translated and the interpretation information of the second object to be translated, only the interpretation information of the first object to be translated or only the interpretation information of the second object to be translated may be presented. Specifically, after the application identifies a plurality of objects to be translated, the application may select one of the objects to be translated or a part of the objects to be translated according to a preset rule to search and present the searched interpretation information.

As an example, the image taken by the user may be "smile laugh"," smile "may be the first object to be translated, and" laugh "may be the second object to be translated. The application can recognize two objects to be translated, namely "smile" and "laugh". However, the user only needs to obtain the explanation information of the 'laugh', and then before searching the object to be translated, the user can set the key through the target search object on the search interface and set the 'laugh' as the target search object, so that the purpose of only searching the 'laugh' is achieved, the explanation information of the 'laugh' is obtained, and the explanation information of the 'laugh' is presented to the user.

It should be noted that the method described in this embodiment may be applied to not only two objects to be translated, but also more objects to be translated, for example, three objects to be translated. When the number of the objects to be translated is three, the method of this embodiment may further include: identifying a third object to be translated from the input content operated by the user; searching the third object to be translated to obtain third interpretation information, wherein the third interpretation information is interpretation information of the third object to be translated; and correspondingly presenting the third interpretation information and the third object to be translated.

In addition, in addition to the various embodiments including the first object to be translated, the second object to be translated, and the third object to be translated, the method described in this embodiment may be applied to search and present any plurality of objects to be translated. For example, in response to a user operation of inputting an object to be translated, the application may identify at least one object to be translated from input contents operated by the user in a separation manner of the object to be translated under the user operation, and perform search to obtain interpretation information corresponding to each object to be translated, and then, the application may correspondingly present the at least one object to be translated and the interpretation information corresponding to each object to be translated.

For the method provided by the embodiment, for the user operation for triggering the search once, the user can input a plurality of objects to be translated, and the application can search the interpretation information of the plurality of objects to be translated and present the interpretation information to the user. For example, if a user needs to query the interpretation information of the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated, the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated can be input into the application together, and the application can search the interpretation information of the first object to be translated and the second object to be translated at the same time and present the same to the user. Therefore, the user can search and check the interpretation information of a plurality of objects to be translated at the same time, and the user does not need to input and check the interpretation information for each object to be translated respectively, so that the query operation of the user is simplified.

A specific scenario is taken as an example below to introduce a search method. In this specific scenario, the words "look", "see", and "watch" all have the meaning of "see", the user marks "look", "see", and "watch" with underlines, respectively, and the user needs to input the three words and simultaneously query the explanatory information of the three words, so as to compare and distinguish the three words.

Referring to fig. 4, a flow chart of a search method in an embodiment of the present invention is shown, where the method may include, for example, the following steps:

s401, shooting image by user "look see watch"input the object to be translated.

S402, application from "look see watch"identifies the first object to be translated" look ", the second object to be translated" see "and the third object to be translated" watch ".

S403, searching the "look", "see" and "watch" by the application to obtain first interpretation information, second interpretation information and third interpretation information, wherein the first interpretation information is the interpretation information of the "look", the second interpretation information is the interpretation information of the "see", and the third interpretation information is the interpretation information of the "watch".

S404, displaying detailed explanation information of the first objects to be translated, namely 'look' and 'look' in a first display area by application; presenting detailed interpretation information of the second objects to be translated 'see' and 'see' in a second display area; and presenting detailed explanation information of the third object to be translated, namely 'watch' and 'watch' in a third display area. The first display area, the second display area and the third display area are located in the same presentation interface.

According to the embodiment of the invention, the object to be translated is input by shooting the image, so that the user operation is simplified, and the application can more accurately identify the object to be translated; meanwhile, in the embodiment of the invention, the application can simultaneously search the interpretation information of the objects to be translated and present the interpretation information to the user, and the user does not need to input and check the interpretation information for each object to be translated respectively, so that the user can distinguish and compare the meanings of the objects to be translated conveniently.
