Referring to FIG. 1, a text search type autocompletion system 100 is employed in a text search system and includes a text request unit 110, a display control unit 120, a search word existence check unit 130, and a text search type completion unit ( 140, a search execution unit 150, and a double-click check unit 160, which automatically completes a text search expression in accordance with a searcher's operation, particularly a computer mouse 40, to execute a text search operation. In the present embodiment, the text search type automatic completion system 100 is a text request unit 110, display control unit 120, search word existence check unit 130, text search type completion unit 140, search execution unit ( 150 and the double-click check unit 160, but it is logically divided for convenience of description, and not divided by hardware.

The text requesting unit 110 requests the text data according to the searcher's operation and provides the text to the display control unit 120 to be displayed on the text display view 62 of the display screen 60. For example, when the text search type autocomplete system is employed in a web browser or the like, a web page corresponding to the URL is displayed in the text display view according to the operation of the searcher. Meanwhile, when the text search type autocomplete system is employed in a mobile device, a text file stored in the mobile device or a web page corresponding to the URL requested by the mobile device is displayed in the text display view. On the other hand, when the text search type autocompletion system is employed in an e-book, the content mounted in the e-book is displayed in the text display view 62.

The display control unit 120 displays a text display view 62 on which the latest text data is displayed on the display screen 60 of the computer.

The search word presence checker 130 is configured to display the search word 64 on the display screen 60 as a specific word is double-clicked by the searcher in the text display view 62. Checks whether the search word entered is present.

The text search expression completion unit 140 includes a search word input module 142, an operator adding module 144, and a search word adding module 146, and a search word pre-entered in the search window 64 exists. If it is not checked, a search word is input to the search window 64, and if it is checked that a search word previously input is present in the search window 64, the search word inputted to the operator set by the searcher is input. Add it later and add the newly double-clicked search word to complete the text search expression. In the present embodiment, the text search expression completion unit 140 is shown as consisting of a search word input module 142, an operator adding module 144 and a search word adding module 146, which is logical for convenience of description. It is only divided into hardware, not hardware.

The search word input module 142 inputs a search word double-clicked through the searcher's computer mouse 40 into the search window 64.

The operator adding module 144 adds an operator after a search word previously input in the search window 64. In the present embodiment, the operator may include at least one of Boolean operators, adjacent operators, and truncations. Here, the logical operator includes any one of AND, OR, XOR and NOT, the adjacent operator includes any one of ADJ and NEAR, and the logical operator and the adjacent operator may be set by a searcher. .

The truncation symbol includes any one of <*> disposed in the middle or rear of a specific keyword, a space disposed in the middle of a specific keyword, and <?> Placed in the middle or rear of a specific keyword, and the truncation symbol is a search. Can be set by the ruler.

For example, if a <*> truncation symbol is used after a particular keyword, all syllables can be searched for. For example, if a search formula is described as <Peninsula *>, words such as <Semiconductor>, <Semiconductor>, <Semiconductor Depths>, and the like can be searched.

Meanwhile, if a symbol <?> Is used after a specific keyword, text data including a word corresponding to the size of <?> May be searched. For example, if a search expression is described as &quot; nothing ??? &quot;, words can be searched, such as &quot; no operation &quot;, &quot; no adjustment &quot;, &quot; unconditional &quot;. When &quot; MP? &Quot; is described as a search expression, words such as <MP3>, <MP4>, <MPA>, <MPS>, and the like can be searched.

In the present exemplary embodiment, the operator is added after the search word input by the operator adding module 144. In addition to the above-mentioned operator, a specific word set by the searcher, for example, <*>, a space, and the like, is described. You can also add special characters or words.

The search word adding module 146 adds a newly double-clicked search word after the operator added by the operator adding module 144 to the search window 64.

As the text search request by the searcher is requested, the search execution unit 150 executes a search of the text data using the completed text search formula and displays the text search result in the text display view 62.

The double-click check unit 160 checks whether the searcher double-clocked by the operation of the computer mouse 40 and provides a check result to the search word existence check unit 130.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, as a specific word is double-clicked by a searcher's mouse operation in a text display view in which text data is displayed, the operator inputs or sets a search word written in the corresponding field in the search box. By completing the text search expression by adding the search word and inputting the search word written in the corresponding field, the text search operation can be performed by completing the text search expression only by the operation of the computer mouse.

1 and 2, the start of the web browser or the mobile or e-book (step S100).

Then, the text display view 62 is displayed on the screen displayed in the activated web browser or mobile or e-book (step S102). For example, when the web browser is activated, the text display view 62 is displayed on one side of the screen while the web page corresponding to the URL is displayed. Meanwhile, when the mobile is activated, the text display view 62 is displayed on one side of the screen while the web page corresponding to the URL is displayed on the mobile device. On the other hand, when the e-book is activated, the contents mounted on the e-book are activated and displayed, and the text display view 62 is displayed on one side of the screen.

Then, it is checked whether the word to be searched for in the text display view 62 is double clicked (step S104). For example, a searcher may select a word to search by dragging a word to search and then double-clicking.

In step S104, if it is checked in the text display view 62 that the word to be searched is not selected, it is fed back to step S102, and if it is checked that the word to be searched is selected, whether or not a search word entered in the search box exists. Is checked (step S106).

If it is checked in step S106 that the search word previously entered in the search window does not exist, the search word is entered in the search window (step S108).

If it is checked in step S106 that the search word pre-entered in the search box exists, an operator is added after the already entered search word (step S110), and then a newly double-clicked search word is added (step S112).

This operator <AND> can be preset by the searcher. If the text search autocomplete program is set up so that the searcher does not search using the <AND> operator, but uses the <OR> operator, the <OR> operator is automatically placed between the first and second search words. Is written. Meanwhile, not only an operator but also a specific word set by the searcher, for example, <*>, a space, and other special characters or words may be automatically entered. In this embodiment, a space is placed between the word and the word to perform the operator function of <OR>. Specific words described in this embodiment are commonly used in the search field, and thus detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted.

Following step S108 or after step S112, it is checked whether to continue inputting a search word (step S114).

If it is checked in step S114 that input of the search word is to be continued, the flow returns to step S104.

If it is not checked in step S114 that the input of the search word is to be continued, it is checked whether or not to perform a text search (step S116).

In step S116, if it is not checked that the text search is to be executed, the text search is terminated (step S118). If it is checked that the text search is to be executed, the text search is executed (step S120), and the feedback is fed back to step S102.

3A to 3C illustrate examples of web pages implemented by a text search type autocomplete method according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3A, a web page displaying a specific article is displayed on a portal site by a searcher's operation. At the top of the web page, a search box for entering a search word is displayed.

Referring to FIG. 3B, when a specific word is selected by the searcher and double-clicked on the displayed web page, the double-clicked specific word is written in the search box. In the present embodiment, when a searcher selects a specific word <Vancouver> through a computer mouse and double-clicks, the specific word <Vancouver> is entered in the search box.

Then, if a searcher selects a specific word <Kim Yuna> with a computer mouse and double-clicks it, a specific word <Vancuber> already exists in the search box. The word is entered in the search box.

Then, if a searcher selects a specific word <PyeongChang Winter Olympics> with a computer mouse and double-clicks, the search operator <and> is already present because the word <Vancuber> and the word <Kim Yuna> already exist in the search box. After adding, the specific word <PyeongChang Winter Olympics> is entered in the search box.
