Detailed Description

In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in further detail below.

Aiming at the technical problem of low information acquisition efficiency of a user, the embodiment of the invention provides a data processing scheme based on an input method, which can receive input information of the user; and displaying and/or broadcasting answers corresponding to the candidate items under the condition that any candidate item corresponding to the input information meets the question and answer condition.

In the embodiment of the invention, the input method refers to a coding method adopted for inputting various characters into a computer or other equipment (such as a mobile phone and a tablet computer). The input method program has the characteristic of cross application, and can be applied to any application environment. For example, as a hosted program, an input method program may be applied to the host program. The host program may include: instant messaging programs, shopping programs, social programs, and the like.

For users using languages such as chinese, japanese, english, korean, etc., it is generally necessary to interact with the device through an input method program. The input modes supported by the input method program can comprise: a keyboard input mode, a voice input mode, a handwriting input mode, a gesture input mode, a cross-screen input mode, or the like.

Taking a keyboard input mode as an example, a user can type an input string through a keyboard, and then an input method program converts the input string into a candidate item of a corresponding language according to a preset standard mapping rule and displays the candidate item, so that the candidate item selected by the user is displayed on a screen. Taking a voice input mode as an example, the voice input by the user can be collected, and the candidate item corresponding to the voice is determined through a voice recognition technology.

Taking a handwriting input mode as an example, trajectory data input by a user can be received, and a candidate item corresponding to the trajectory data is determined through a trajectory recognition technology.

The cross-screen input can be realized on two different devices. Assume that two different devices include: the first device and the second device, the input characters of the first device may be synchronized to the second device, or the input characters of the second device may be synchronized to the first device. For example, the input method interface of the first device may include: the two-dimensional code, the three-dimensional code or the four-dimensional code and the like, and the second device can scan the codes to realize the connection between the first device and the second device, so that the synchronization of the input characters between the first device and the second device can be realized.

The gesture input mode is a non-contact input mode. The mapping between the gesture and the character may be preset, whereby the corresponding candidate may be determined depending on the input gesture.

Alternatively, the gesture image data may be acquired by an image acquisition device such as a camera, and the input gesture corresponding to the gesture image data is determined by a gesture recognition technology.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the orientation of the gesture may include: at least one of a direction, an angle, and an arc. In practical applications, the hand in the preset state may move along any direction, or the hand in the preset state may rotate around a certain point in a plane, or the hand in the preset state may turn around a certain axis, so as to obtain various gestures. Wherein the preset state may include: a fist-making state, a palm unfolding state, a palm half unfolding state and the like. It can be understood that a person skilled in the art or a user may set a desired gesture according to the actual application requirements, and use the desired information to characterize the orientation of the gesture, and the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the specific gesture and the specific orientation representing method of the gesture.

Optionally, the input method program usually stores a word bank, the word bank may store common entries in the internet, and after receiving input information of the user, the input method program may query the word bank to display entries corresponding to the input information as candidate items to the user. For example, if the input information is an input string "qi aodanshengao", the candidate item corresponding to the input string may include: qiaodan height, Qiaodan, bridge, etc. For another example, the input information is an input string "beijtianqi", and the candidate item corresponding to the input string may include: "Beijing weather", "Beijing", etc

The embodiment of the invention can display the candidate items in the input method interface, and the candidate items can be one or more for the user to select. The input method interface may include: a candidate area in which candidates can be presented.

In the embodiment of the invention, the displayed candidate items can be in a non-on-screen state, after a certain candidate item is selected by a user, the candidate item selected by the user can be on-screen, and the on-screen can be used for outputting the candidate item to a screen. For example, in the context of an instant messenger, the screen-up may be used to output the candidate to an input box of the instant messenger.

Method embodiment

Referring to fig. 1, a flowchart illustrating steps of an embodiment of a data processing method according to the present invention is shown, which may specifically include the following steps:

step 101, receiving input information of a user;

and 102, displaying and/or broadcasting answers corresponding to the candidate items under the condition that any candidate item corresponding to the input information meets the question and answer condition.

The data processing method provided by the embodiment of the invention can be applied to Application programs and/or websites such as browsers, search engines, search APPs (applications), non-search APPs and the like, and the data processing method provided by the embodiment of the invention can be applied to Application environments corresponding to clients and servers, wherein the clients and the servers can be positioned in a wired or wireless network, and the clients and the servers perform data interaction through the wired or wireless network.

Optionally, the client may run on a device, and the device specifically includes but is not limited to: smart phones, tablet computers, electronic book readers, MP3 (Moving Picture Experts Group Audio Layer III) players, MP4 (Moving Picture Experts Group Audio Layer IV) players, laptop portable computers, car-mounted computers, desktop computers, set-top boxes, smart televisions, smart speakers, wearable devices, and the like.

In step 101, the input mode of the input information may include any one of the following input modes:

a keyboard input mode;

a voice input mode;

a handwriting input mode;

a gesture input mode; and

and (4) inputting a mode across screens.

The embodiment of the invention can receive and display the input information through the interface of the input method program. The input information may be in a non-on-screen state, in other words, the input information may be located in an interface of an input method program and not output to a screen.

In step 102, optionally, preset standard mapping rules may be used to convert the input information into candidate items of the corresponding language. The candidate item corresponding to the input information may be one or more. If any candidate item meets the question-answer condition, the answer corresponding to the candidate item can be output. It can be understood that if the plurality of candidates meet the question-answering conditions, answers corresponding to the plurality of candidates can be output respectively.

The question-answer condition can be used for representing the condition corresponding to the question-answer requirement. Any candidate item corresponding to the input information meets the question and answer condition, and the candidate item corresponding to the input information can be represented to have the question and answer requirement, so that the answer corresponding to the candidate item is output.

Optionally, any candidate item corresponding to the input information meets a question and answer condition, which may specifically include:

any candidate item corresponding to the input information is matched with a preset problem; or

The language structure of any candidate item corresponding to the input information is matched with a preset language structure.

The preset question may refer to an existing question, or a question for which an answer already exists. In practical applications, preset questions and their corresponding answers may be collected. For example, the preset questions and the corresponding answers thereof can be collected through an internet crawling manner. For another example, the preset questions and the corresponding answers may be obtained from the provider in a manner of cooperating with the provider, for example, in a customer service scenario, the provider of the customer service may provide the preset questions and the corresponding answers. It can be understood that the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the specific obtaining manner of the preset question and the corresponding answer.

The candidate item corresponding to the input information is matched with a preset problem, and the corresponding matching mode may include: a character string comparison mode or a similarity determination mode between word vectors.

The character string comparison method may include: and after the word segmentation processing is carried out on the objects to be matched, character string comparison is carried out on the word segments respectively corresponding to the objects to be matched. The object to be matched may include: candidate and preset questions.

The determining method of the similarity between the word vectors may include: after word segmentation processing is carried out on the object to be matched, word vectors corresponding to all the word segments included in the object to be matched are determined, and similarity between the word vectors corresponding to the object to be matched is determined by using a similarity measurement method.

For example, if the candidate item a is "jodan height", and the preset question a is "how much height jodan is, or" how high jodan is ", etc., the candidate item a matches the preset question a.

And the language structure of the candidate item corresponding to the input information is matched with a preset language structure. A linguistic structure is a linguistic expression that can assign patterns of regularity that linguistics separates from linguistic material through linguistic analysis methods. The speech structure may include: and the patterns correspond to language units such as words, phrases or sentences.

In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the preset language structure may include:

entity words and attribute words corresponding to the entity words; and/or

Entity words and relation words corresponding to the entity words; and/or

The system comprises entity words, relation words corresponding to the entity words and attribute words corresponding to the relation words.

In embodiments of the invention, an entity is a particular thing or concept. Entities are generally classified into categories such as people category entities, movie category entities, and the like. The same entity may correspond to multiple entity instances, and an entity instance may be a descriptive page (content) of an entity in a network (or other medium), such as a page of encyclopedia, that contains the entity instance corresponding to the entity.

Optionally, the entity may include: named entity (named entity), which may refer to a person's name, organization's name, place name, and all other entities identified by name. The broader named entities may also include: book name, song name, movie title, product name, brand name, number, date, currency, address, etc.

The attribute words can be used to characterize the properties that an entity contains, i.e., the meaning that the entity characterizes. For example, the attribute words of the person name may include: height, age, date of birth, occupation, etc. The attribute value may be used to characterize the corresponding value of the attribute word, such as 168cm (height), 87kg (weight), and so on.

The relation term is used for describing the relationship between two entities, such as a spouse relationship, a parent-child relationship and the like. The relationship value may be used to characterize the value corresponding to the relationship, such as "the spouse of the name a is the name B, etc.

The entity words and the attribute words corresponding to the entity words can represent the question and answer requirements of attribute values. For example, if the candidate includes the entity word "name of a person" and the attribute word "height," the candidate may be considered to represent the question-answering requirement of "height value.

The entity words and the relation words corresponding to the entity words can represent the question and answer requirements of the relation values. For example, if the candidate includes the entity word "person name" and the relation word "wife," the candidate may be considered to represent the question-and-answer requirement of "wife is who".

The entity words, the relation words corresponding to the entity words and the attribute words corresponding to the relation words can represent the question-answer requirements of the values of the attribute words corresponding to the relation words. For example, if the candidate includes the entity word "name of a person", the relationship word "girlfriend", and the attribute word "background", the candidate may be considered to represent the question-and-answer requirement of "girlfriend's background".

It is to be understood that the entity word, the attribute word corresponding to the entity word, or the entity word, and the relation word corresponding to the entity word, or the entity word, the relation word corresponding to the entity word, and the attribute word corresponding to the relation word are only examples of the preset language structure, and in fact, those skilled in the art may determine other preset language structures according to actual application requirements, for example, other preset language structures may include: including question sentences of entity words, etc., the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the specific preset language structure.

According to one embodiment, the attribute word corresponding to the entity word may be determined by: and analyzing the webpage content of each knowledge website by utilizing an analysis template of the corresponding knowledge website aiming at the captured knowledge websites of the same knowledge category to obtain entity words, and attribute words and attribute values, relation words and relation values corresponding to the entity words.

According to another embodiment, the attribute word corresponding to the entity word may be determined by: and acquiring the attribute words corresponding to the entity words from the search results of the entity words in a preset time period.

According to the embodiment of the invention, the attribute words corresponding to the real words in the preset time period can be determined by directly utilizing the search result data recorded in the search log, so that the determination difficulty of the attribute words can be reduced. The preset time period may be determined by those skilled in the art according to actual application requirements, and one or more attribute words corresponding to the entity words may be obtained from the search results within the preset time period. The attribute words such as "calorie" may include: "units of calories" or "songs", etc.

In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the entity word may be matched with a search request in a search log to obtain search result data corresponding to the entity word; or directly inputting the entity words into a search engine, and searching to obtain the search result data corresponding to the entity. Each search result item in the search result data may correspond to information such as a title, an abstract, a page, and the like. The title and the abstract may be contents shown in the search result page for the search result item. The general search result item can correspond to a page, and the page can refer to a page entered after a user triggers the search result item.

Optionally, the result feature corresponding to a search result item may be extracted from information corresponding to the search result item. The result features may be used to characterize the search result items; the result characteristics corresponding to different types of search result items may or may not be the same. For example, a result feature of a web page or document may characterize the subject matter of the web page or document, etc.; the resulting characteristics of the application may characterize the functionality of the application, etc.; the resulting characteristics of the music may include: the characteristics of the word man, singer and expression are taken. The resulting features of the television program may include: a host, or a guest, or a theme of a program, etc., wherein the theme may refer to a central idea to be represented by an object, and broadly refers to main content.

In step 102, in the case that any candidate item corresponding to the input information meets the question-answer condition, an answer corresponding to the candidate item may be automatically determined. For example, if candidate a is "jordan height," the answer corresponding to candidate a may be "198 cm.

The embodiment of the invention can provide the following technical scheme for determining the answer corresponding to the candidate item:

technical solution 1

In technical solution 1, the answer corresponding to the candidate item may be determined through the following steps: determining a first representation vector corresponding to the candidate item; determining a target preset problem corresponding to the candidate item according to the matching degree between the first expression vector and a second expression vector corresponding to the preset problem; and determining the answer corresponding to the candidate item according to the answer corresponding to the target preset question.

The embodiment of the invention can determine the target preset problem according to the matching degree between the first expression vector corresponding to the candidate item and the second expression vector corresponding to the preset problem, and further determine the answer corresponding to the candidate item according to the answer corresponding to the target preset problem.

Since the target preset question is an existing question, the corresponding answer of the target preset question is usually reasonable and effective, and the target preset question is matched with the question, the answer corresponding to the target preset question can be used as a basis for determining the answer corresponding to the candidate item, and the accuracy of the answer corresponding to the candidate item can be improved.

In the embodiment of the present invention, optionally, the preset questions and the corresponding answers thereof may be stored in a knowledge base. The first representative vector may be matched with a second representative vector corresponding to a preset problem in the knowledge base to obtain a corresponding degree of matching.

The embodiment of the invention can convert the text into the vector representation with fixed length, thereby being convenient for processing. The first representation vector may be used to represent candidates and the second representation vector may be used to represent pre-set questions. The dimensions of the first representation vector or the second representation vector may be one-dimensional or two-dimensional or three-dimensional.

The type of the first representation vector or the second representation vector may comprise: one-hot (one-hot) vectors, word embedding vectors (WordEmbelling), or high-level representation vectors. word embedding is to find a mapping or a function to generate an expression in a new space, and the expression is word representation.

In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the determining of the first representative vector may comprise: and determining word embedding vectors corresponding to the candidate items, and processing the word embedding vectors by using a neural network to obtain high-level expression vectors corresponding to the problems. The word embedding vector is processed by utilizing the neural network, and the deep-level features of the word embedding vector can be extracted, so that the richness of the first expression vector can be improved. Alternatively, the word embedding vector may be processed by using a Neural Network such as CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) or LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory). For the determination process of the second expression vector, since it is similar to the determination process of the first expression vector, it is not repeated herein and it is sufficient to refer to each other.

Similarity measures between the vectors can be adopted to determine matching degrees between the first expression vector and a second expression vector corresponding to a preset problem. The similarity measure may include: cosine of included angle, Euclidean distance, etc. The embodiment of the invention can take one or more preset problems with the maximum matching degree as target preset problems.

Technical solution 2

In technical solution 2, the answer corresponding to the candidate item may be determined through the following steps: and extracting answers corresponding to the candidate items from the search results corresponding to the candidate items.

The search results may be derived from a database of a search engine, a database of a vertical question and answer website, and the like. Accordingly, the determination method for determining the text related to the question may specifically include:

in practical application, a search term can be obtained according to the candidate items, and a search engine queries to obtain a webpage or a document matched with the search term as a search result.

The vertical question-answering platform can refer to a vertical website corresponding to the question-answering field. The vertical question and answer platform may include: text answering a question, and/or text discussing a question, and/or text including keywords of a question, etc.

Alternatively, in order to reduce the operation amount, the top M-bit search results may be selected from the search results to identify candidate answers, where M is a positive integer, and for example, M may be a value such as 10.

Optionally, the answer corresponding to the candidate item may be extracted from the search result corresponding to the candidate item according to the question-answer intention corresponding to the candidate item.

In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the search result corresponding to the candidate item may be a landing page of the search result item. The question-answer pairs can be mined from the webpage in advance in an off-line state, and answers which are contained in the landing page of the search result item and are matched with the question-answer intentions are determined by inquiring the question-answer pairs in an on-line state. Specifically, according to the question and answer intention, searching may be performed in a question and answer pair corresponding to the landing page of the search result item to obtain answer information matched with the question and answer intention; the question-answer pair may include: questions and answers. Because the question-answer pairs are mined in the off-line state and the answer information is determined by inquiring the question-answer pairs in the on-line state, the determination efficiency of the answer information can be improved.

The question-answer intent may refer to an answer intent expressed by a candidate item. For example, the question-answer intention corresponding to the candidate item "jordan height" may be "height intention"; for another example, the candidate item "what is known as the weapon of the physical holy sword" the corresponding question-answer intention may be "weapon intention"; for another example, the question-answer intent corresponding to the candidate "country in which taj tom is a world famous building" may be "geographical location intent"; or the question-answer intention corresponding to the candidate item 'Beijing weather' can be 'weather intention'. Of course, the embodiments of the present invention are not intended to be limited to the specific questions and answers.

Optionally, the process of determining the question-answering intention corresponding to the candidate item may include: and performing intention recognition on the candidate items through a field recognition module and a field intention recognition module.

The domain identification module can be used for identifying the domain to which the candidate item belongs; examples of fields may include: "olympic sports", "geographic problems", "computer digital", "laws and regulations", "healthy life", "education science", "economic finance", "emotional family", "social life", "leisure and entertainment", "medical health", "artistic words", "games", etc., although the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to a specific field.

The domain intention identifying module can be used for identifying question and answer intentions corresponding to the candidate items in the domain. According to one embodiment, the intention recognition can be regarded as a multi-classification task, so that the domain intention recognition module can recognize question and answer intentions corresponding to the candidate items in the domain through the classifier. The classification tasks of the classifier can be obtained according to a plurality of question-answer intentions (one question-answer intention may correspond to one classification task), and the training samples of the classifier are obtained for the material according to the question-answer corresponding to the plurality of question-answer intentions, and the question-answer material may include: question corpus and answer corpus.

For example, the training samples may be corpus of questions and labeled question-answering intention categories, and the training samples are trained on the basis of the corpus of questions and the labeled question-answering intention categories to obtain classifiers. According to another embodiment, the domain intention identifying module may identify a question-answer intention corresponding to the question in the domain through a question-answer intention statement mode, where the question-answer intention statement mode may be used to represent a statement mode corresponding to the question-answer intention in the domain, and may include at least one keyword, and the at least one keyword may conform to a corresponding grammar rule; in this way, the question-answering intention pattern corresponding to the question can be obtained based on the matching between the question and the question-answering intention pattern.

The embodiment of the invention can display the answer corresponding to the candidate item in a visual mode. For example, the answer corresponding to the candidate item may be presented in an interface of an input method program. Alternatively, the display area of the answer may be located around the candidate area, for example, the display area of the answer may be located below the candidate area, and of course, the location of the display area of the answer is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

According to the embodiment of the invention, the answer corresponding to the candidate item can be broadcasted in an auditory way, so that the user can be deepened about the answer. Of course, the embodiment of the present invention may display and broadcast the answer corresponding to the candidate item.

In the embodiment of the present invention, there may be a plurality of candidate items, and if any candidate item meets the question and answer condition, an answer corresponding to the candidate item may be presented and/or broadcast.

In an optional embodiment of the present invention, if a trigger operation of the user on the answer is received, the candidate item and the corresponding answer may be displayed on the screen. For example, if the candidate item a is "jordan height" and the answer corresponding to the candidate item a is "198 cm", the "jordan height 198 cm" may be displayed on the screen. Or, if a trigger operation of the user on the candidate item is received, the candidate item may be displayed on the screen.

To sum up, in the data processing method of the embodiment of the present invention, when any candidate item corresponding to input information meets the question and answer condition, an answer corresponding to the candidate item is displayed and/or broadcasted; any candidate item corresponding to the input information meets the question and answer condition to represent that the user has the question and answer requirement, and under the condition, the answer corresponding to the candidate item is displayed and/or broadcasted to the user, so that the operation that the user triggers search and obtains required information from a search result can be saved, the operation path of obtaining the information by the user can be shortened, and the information obtaining efficiency of the user can be improved.
