With the development of internet technology, people increasingly acquire various information through the internet. The internet can provide accurate, clear, comprehensive and detailed entity-related information to users, so that searching and viewing entity-related information becomes one of the main ways for people to know entities.

Currently, when displaying related information of an entity, not only information such as concept, classification, and attribute of the entity itself is displayed, but also related entities having a relationship with the entity can be displayed based on operations such as search and page of a user. For example: when displaying the relation of a certain person, not only the basic information of the person, the main achievement, the evaluation of the person, and the like, but also the work, the person, and the like related to the person may be displayed based on the user operation. The display mode of the associated entity commonly used in the prior art is as follows: the associated entities are listed in the form of a list. Although the method of displaying the associated entities by the list can also display the associated entities of the target entities to the user, the user cannot intuitively and quickly determine the association degree between each associated entity and the target entity through the display content.

S204, determining the relative display distance of each associated entity according to the association degree.

For example, the corresponding relationship between the association degree and the display distance level may be configured in advance, and the corresponding relationship may be searched according to the association degree of each associated entity, so as to obtain the display distance level of each associated entity.

S205, drawing and displaying the icons of the target entities, and drawing and displaying the icons of the associated entities according to the display distance grade.

Specifically, the drawing an icon of each associated entity according to the display distance level may include: the method comprises the steps of firstly determining the display position of a target entity, drawing icons of the target entity at the determined display position, and then drawing the icons of the associated entities at the positions, of which the distances from the icons of the target entity accord with the corresponding display distance levels, according to the display distance levels of the associated entities and the positions of the icons of the target entity.

In the embodiment of the invention, the position of drawing the icon of the target entity is not limited, and the icon of the target entity can be drawn at any position of the display interface according to requirements. For example: the icon of the target entity may be drawn at the geometric center of the presentation interface.

Further, the connecting the icons showing the plurality of associated entities with the same distance level includes:

When the associated entity icons with the same display distance level are drawn at a plurality of target positions with the same distance from the icon of the target entity and connected with the associated entity icons with the same display distance level through an arc to form a plurality of concentric circles with the icon of the target entity as a center, a display interface output by the display method provided by the embodiment of the invention can be as shown in fig. 3. Fig. 3 illustrates an example in which the target entity is a person and the related entity is a person having a relationship with the target entity. The display distance levels of the associated

entity icons

entity icons

309, 310, 311, 312, 313, 314, 315, 316 and 317 are the same, so that the associated

entity icons

302 and 303 are drawn at a plurality of target positions with the same distance as the icon of the target entity 301, the associated

entity icons

304, 305, 306, 307 and 308 are drawn at a plurality of target positions with the same distance as the icon of the target entity 301, the associated

entity icons

S402, acquiring the associated entity set of the target entity.

Wherein the associated entity set comprises at least one associated entity associated with the target entity;

s403, determining the association degree between each associated entity in the associated entity set and the target entity based on a first preset rule.

S404, determining the relative depth position between each associated entity and the target entity according to the association degree.

That is, the relative display position in the above embodiment includes a relative depth position between each of the associated entities and the target entity.

S405, drawing and displaying the icons of the target entities, and drawing and displaying the icons of the associated entities according to the relative depth positions.

After obtaining the association degree between each associated entity and the target entity, the embodiment determines the relative depth position between each associated entity and the target entity according to the association degree, draws and displays the icon of the target entity, and draws and displays the icon of each associated entity according to the relative depth position, so that the embodiment can intuitively and quickly obtain the association degree between each associated entity and the target entity through the relative depth between the associated entities and the target entity.

As an optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present invention, an implementation manner of the step S405 (drawing and displaying the icon of the target entity, and drawing and displaying the icon of each associated entity according to the relative depth position) may include:

When the icon of the target entity is drawn and displayed on the spherical surface of the target sphere at a position corresponding to the geometric center of the two-dimensional projection of the target sphere, and the icons of the associated entities are drawn and displayed on the spherical surface of the target sphere according to the relative depth position, a display interface output by the display method provided by the embodiment of the invention may be as shown in fig. 5. Fig. 5 illustrates an example in which the target entity is a person and the related entity is a person having a relationship with the target entity. The icon 500 of the target entity is located on the spherical surface of the target sphere and at the geometric center of the two-dimensional projection of the target sphere, and each associated entity is drawn on the spherical surface of the target sphere according to the relative depth position.

In the above embodiment, each associated entity is drawn on the spherical surface of the target sphere according to the relative depth position, so that the target entity and each associated entity are displayed on the three-dimensional sphere, and therefore, the above embodiment can rapidly and intuitively determine the association degree between the associated entity and the target entity through the relative depth, and meanwhile, the click desire of the user can be promoted, and further, the content exposure degree is promoted.

Further, on the basis of the embodiment shown in fig. 4, the display method provided in the embodiment of the present invention further includes the following steps a and b:

And b, rotating the icon of each associated entity along the spherical surface of the target sphere according to the rotating direction and the rotating angle, and displaying the icon of the target entity and the icon of each associated entity after rotation.

It should be noted that, in the above embodiment, only the icon of the associated entity is rotated according to the rotation direction and the rotation angle, and the icon of the target entity is not rotated according to the rotation direction and the rotation angle, so that the icon of the associated entity is always located on the spherical surface of the target sphere at a position corresponding to the geometric center of the two-dimensional projection of the target sphere.

Referring to fig. 6, after the icons of the associated entities are rotated along the spherical surface of the target sphere according to the rotation direction and the rotation angle, and the icons of the target entities and the icons of the rotated associated entities are displayed, the icons of the associated entities with the originally large relative depth positions can be rotated to the small relative depth positions, so that the user can conveniently view the icons of the associated entities to be viewed.

As an extension and refinement to the above embodiments, the embodiments of the present invention provide another display method. Referring to fig. 7, the display method includes the following steps S701 to S705:

s701, responding to the trigger operation of the user, and determining a target entity to be displayed.

S702, acquiring the associated entity set of the target entity.

s703, determining the association degree between each associated entity in the associated entity set and the target entity based on a first preset rule.

The implementation manners of steps S701 to S703 in the embodiment of the present invention are the same as the implementation manners of steps S101 to S103 in the above embodiment, and are not described herein again.

And S74, determining the display area of the icon of each associated entity according to the association degree.

Optionally, the display area of the icon of each associated entity is positively correlated with the association degree. That is, the greater the degree of association of the associated entity, the greater the display area of the icon of the associated entity; conversely, the smaller the degree of association of the associated entity, the smaller the display area of the icon of the associated entity.

And S75, drawing and displaying the icon of the target entity, and drawing and displaying the icon of each associated entity according to the display area.
