201410246705.1, filed on June 5, 2014, entitled "Methods and systems for processing sets of objects and satisfaction levels thereof," which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD
The present disclosure relates to search technologies, more particularly to methods and systems for processing multiple sets of objects and determining satisfaction levels thereof. BACKGROUND
With network development and the popularization of information technology, the Internet has gradually entered people's lives, study and work, and has brought mankind into the information age. However, due to a large amount of information available on the Internet, a user may have difficulty finding certain objects, such as goods or services. To improve the accuracy of searches, current techniques may define multiple objects having a same attribute as a group of objects. Therefore, a user may specify a query to target a certain group of objects. However, under these techniques, a search engine may render similar or the same search results for various queries since these results have a same or similar attribute associated with the queries. So the user has to repeat searches to further determine desired objects. This increases an amount of data exchange between client terminals (e.g., applications on the client terminal) and the search engine, resulting in an increase of
processing loads on the search engine. In addition, these techniques do not calculate satisfaction levels of the user to multiple groups of objects.

This present disclosure includes the following implementations and the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described implementations of the present disclosure merely represent a part of the implementations of the present disclosure, and not all of the implementations. Based on the implementations in the present disclosure, other implementations made by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts are within the scope of the present disclosure. In addition, the term "and/or" relationship is merely a description of the associated object; three relationships may exist. For example, A and/or B, may be expressed three conditions: A exists alone, B exists alone, or A and B exists. In addition, the character "/" generally indicates a "or" contextual relationship.
FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an illustrative process 100 for processing multiple sets of objects. In implementations, operations of the process 100 may be performed by the search engine associated with one or more servers. In implementations, the operations of the process 100 may be performed by a local client or a network terminal of a distributed system. It is understood that the local client may be a local terminal installed on the terminal or client (nativeApp) or a web browser program (webApp) terminal. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this as long
as the search engine may search sets of objects and/or recommend search results objective.
At 102, a search engine may acquire at least two sets of objects. In implementations, the search engine may search a database based on a keyword in a query entered by the user, and provide the ranked at least two sets of objects as search results for the user. For convenience of description, the current user in the subsequent description of implementations of the present implementations refers to the user.
In implementations, the search engine may search the database based on characteristic information of the user, and provide the ranked at least two sets of objects as search results for the user. The search engine may acquire at least two sets of objects using various methods. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
At 104, the search engine may rank the at least two sets of objects based on an object satisfaction level of a user to an individual set of objects. The object satisfaction level may be obtained based on operation behavioral data of the user on the individual set of objects (also referred to as "first operation behavioral data") and operation behavioral data of the user on an object of the individual set of objects (also referred to as "second operation behavioral data"). In implementations, the object satisfaction level may be obtained based on operation behavioral data of multiple users associated with the user.
In implementations, a scoring module may further acquire a first candidate satisfaction level of the user to the individual set of objects based on the operation behavioral data of the user on the individual set of objects, and acquire a second candidate satisfaction level of the user to the individual set of objects based on the operation behavioral data of the user on the object of the individual set of objects and a mapping relationship between multiple sets of objects and multiple objects of the multiple sets of objects. Then, the scoring module may acquire an object
satisfaction level based on the first candidate satisfaction level and the second candidate satisfaction level.
The operation behavioral data of the user on the set of objects of the user may include operation behavioral data of the user on objects of one or all portions of sets of objects of websites associated with the search engine. In implementations, the operation behavioral data of the user on the set of objects may include operation behavioral data of the user on sets of objects to be ranked. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
In implementations, the operation behavioral data of the user on the set of objects may include search information, browse information and click-through information. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
The operation behavioral data of the user on the object may include the operation behavioral data of the user on objects of one or all portions objects of websites associated with the search engine, or the operation behavioral data of the user on objects to be ranked. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
In implementations, the operation behavioral data of the user on an object may include searching information, clicking through information, bookmarking information, ordering information, and/or purchasing information. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
In embodiments, the scoring module may further acquire at least one of operation behavioral data of the user on the set of objects, the mapping relationship, or the operation behavioral data of the user on an object from cookie information.
Cookie, sometimes also used in the plural form of Cookies, refers to certain data (usually encrypted) used by certain websites to identify or track a user identity and/or a session (Session). The cookie may be stored on a client terminal. Specifically, these sites may assign a unique identification Cookie (CookielD) for the client terminal to create a Cookie object on the client terminal. Accordingly,
operation behavioral data of the user on an object may be stored on the client terminal to form Cookie information.
Cookie information may be used to track site statistics, which may indicate habits of users associated with accessing the site. For example, accessing times, visited pages, a time that a user spends on the site, an action taken by the user when visiting the site, and so on. A computing device may retrieve the Cookie information using various methods. For example, on a page of the website, the computing device may place a lxl invisible pixel. When a user first visits the page, the computing device may get a site for the user and assign a unique identification Cookie (CookielD) to the user,
The computing device may create a Cookie object on the client terminal. Accordingly, the computing device may store operation behavioral data of the user on the client terminal to form Cookie information. Thus, the client terminal may transmit the Cookie information and specify timing information in the Cookie sent to the site. For example, the client terminal may transmit the Cookie to the website when the client terminal requests to revisit the website.
In implementations, the Cookie information may include at least one of CookielD, a user identify of a user, operation behavioral data of the user on the individual set of objects, operation behavioral data of the user on an object of the individual set of objects, and a mapping relationship between an object and the set of objects. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
The user identify information may include a user identify (ID) or an IP address of the client terminal. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
The mapping relationship between a set of objects and an object of the set of objects may indicate an operation that a user receives a search result of the object and clicks the object. Then, this operation may be recorded to indicate the mapping relationship between the set of objects and the object of the set of objects. For example, the scoring module may acquire a first candidate satisfaction level of the
user to an individual set of objects based on the operation behavioral data of the user on the individual set of objects of at least two sets of objects. The operation behavioral data of the user may include operations the user performs on the individual set of objects of the at least two sets of objects.
In implementations, the operation behavioral data of the user on the set of objects of the user may include operation behavioral data of the user on objects of one or all portions of sets of objects listed on one or more websites associated with the search engine and/or a service provider.
The scoring module may acquire preference feature information of the user to the individual set of objects based on the operation behavioral data of the user on the set of objects. Then, the scoring module may acquire a first candidate satisfaction level of the user to the individual set of objects based on reference feature information of the user to the individual set of objects.
In implementations, the scoring module may acquire the first candidate satisfaction level of the user to the individual set of objects based on the mapping between attribute information of the individual set of objects and the preference feature information of the user to the individual set of objects. For example, a successful matching may indicate a high satisfaction level of the user to a set objects. An unsuccessful matching may indicate a low satisfaction level of the user to the set of object. A matching algorithm for processing feature information may include various matching algorithms, such as a Euclidean distance algorithm.
Use of preference feature information of a set of objects makes the coverage of the set of objects more extensive, therefore effectively improving the accuracy of processing the set of objects.
In implementations, the scoring module may determine at least one object of the individual set of objects based on the mapping relationship. Then, the scoring module may acquire a first candidate satisfaction level of the user to the individual set of objects based on the operation behavioral data of the user on the individual
set of objects, which may include operations the user performs on the individual set of objects of the at least two sets of objects. In this way, the scoring module may acquire the second candidate satisfaction level of the individual set of objects based on multiple reference satisfaction levels of the user to objects of the individual set of objects. For example, the scoring module may acquire the second candidate satisfaction level of the individual set of objects based on an average value of multiple reference satisfaction levels of the user to objects of the individual set of objects.
In implementations, the scoring module may determine at least one object of the individual set of objects based on the mapping relationship. Then, the scoring module may acquire preference feature information of the user to the individual set of objects based on the operation behavioral data of the user on the set of objects, which may include operation data on all the objects of one or more websites associated with the scoring module and/or a service provider.
The scoring module may acquire the first candidate satisfaction level of the user to the individual set of objects based on attribute information of the individual set of objects and the preference feature information of the user to the individual set of objects. The scoring module may acquire the second candidate satisfaction level of the individual set of objects based on multiple reference satisfaction levels of the user to objects of the individual set of objects.
A matching algorithm for processing feature information may include various matching algorithms, such as a Euclidean distance algorithm.
Use of preference feature information of a set of objects makes the coverage of the set of objects more extensive, therefore effectively improving the accuracy of processing the set of objects.
The scoring module may acquire an object satisfaction level based on the first candidate satisfaction level, a weight factor associated with the first candidate
satisfaction level, the second candidate satisfaction level, and a weight factor associated with the second candidate satisfaction level.
The scoring nnodule may obtain the object satisfaction level using the following equation:
f (X offerld
offerld
{ S SPUId ) (l ■ a G(sSpuid )
N, wherein:
SPUId represents an ID of a set of objects;
H{sspuid ) represents the object satisfaction level of the user to a set of objects
SPUId
a represents a weight factor of the first candidate satisfaction level,
G{s spuid ) represents the first candidate satisfaction level,

Ns represents a number of objects of the identified set of objects SPUId f
Σ f (X offerld )
offerld
represents the second candidate stratification level, an average of multiple reference satisfaction levels of the user to each identified object of the identified set of objects SPUId
The search engine may rank the at least two sets of objects based on an object satisfaction level of the user to an individual set of objects. In implementations, the search engine may rank sets of objects using various techniques. For example, a matching algorithm may be implemented to measure a matching degree between a keyword and the set of objects. The search engine may assign a weight factor to a ranking parameter to obtain a ranking fraction and to rank each object.
In implementations, the object may be an item. Multiple items having one or more same attribute may be defined or classified as a standardized product unit (SPU), also called a product having the same category. Using SPU, a specific item may be easily located by navigating through one or more clickable SPU tags. In these instances, SPU may be reused for classification of new item or commodity to be sold by a merchant on an e-commerce platform.. Typically, one SPU correspond to multiple items or commodities, while an item or a commodity corresponds to only one SPU.
In a shopping website of Alibaba China (http://www.1688.com/), and a SPU may be defined to include high density polyethylene (HDPE) having the same type number and/or being made in the same place, such as SPU1, SPU2, SPUn (n is an integer greater than one). SPU1 may be referred as a first set of objects, and SPU2 may be referred as a second set of objects.
A user may use a browser to access Alibaba China website
(http://www.1688.com/), and then enter a query keyword "HDPE 5000S" in the search input box. The browser transmits the query keyword "HDPE 5000S" to a search engines associated with the Alibaba China website. After the search engine receives the query keyword "HDPE 5000S", the search engine may obtain multiple SPU products corresponding to "HDPE 5000S" in the database based on the query. The search engine may provide the SPU products as search results to the user, such as HDPE / Daqing Petrochemical / 5000S, HDPE / Yangzi Petrochemical / 5000S, HDPE / Lanzhou Petrochemical / 5000S, HDPE / Yanshan Petrochemical / 5000S, HDPE /
Honam / 5000S products. For example, HDPE / Daqing Petrochemical / 5000S may be the first set of objects, and HDPE / Yangzi Petrochemical / 5000S may be the second set of objects.
Then the scoring module may read Cookie information stored on the client terminal. The Cookie information may include data of user ID information, operation behavioral data of the user to the SPU, a mapping relationship between the SPU and the item, and operation behavioral data of the user to the item. Then the scoring module may acquire preference feature information of the user to the SPU based on the operation behavioral data on the SPU, which may include operation data on all SPUs associated with Alibaba. For example, the operation data may include SPU key attributes information of user preferences, SPU market information of user preferences, and/or SPU geographical information of user preferences.
In implementations, the scoring module may further read the Cookie information to obtain the operation behavioral data on the SPUs, which may include operation data on all SPUs associated with Alibaba. The scoring module may further obtain preference feature information of the user to SPUs based on the operation behavioral data on the SPUs. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this. Then the scoring module may acquire the first candidate satisfaction level of the user to an individual SPU based on the mapping between attribute information of the individual SPU and the preference feature information of the user to the individual SPU, which may include SPU key attributes information of the user preference, SPU market information of user preferences, and/or SPU geographical information of user preferences. For example, a successful matching may indicate a high satisfaction level of the user to the SPU, while an unsuccessful matching may indicate a low satisfaction level of the user to the SPU.
The scoring module may determine at least one object of the individual SPU based on the mapping relationship, and acquire a reference satisfaction level to an
individual item based on the operation behavioral data of the user to the individual item.
In implementations, the scoring module may further acquire the operation behavioral data of the user to the individual item based on the Cookie information stored on the client terminal, and acquire a reference satisfaction level to an individual item based on the operation behavioral data of the user to the individual item. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
The scoring module may acquire the second candidate satisfaction level of the individual SPU based on an average value of multiple reference satisfaction levels of the user to objects of the individual SPU. Then, the scoring module may acquire an object satisfaction level of the user to the individual SPU based on the first candidate satisfaction level, a weight factor associated with the first candidate satisfaction level, the second candidate satisfaction level, and a weight factor associated with the second candidate satisfaction level. In implementations, a search engine may rank SPUs in search results based on the SPU object satisfaction level of the user to the individual SPU of the SPUs in the search results.
At 106, the search engine may provide the ranked at least two sets of objects. For example, the search engine may output 6 sets of objects including set of objects 1, set of objects 2, set of objects 3, set of objects 4, set of objects 5, and set of objects 6. The search engine may rank these six sets of objects based on an object satisfaction level of each set of objects in a descending order.
Suppose that the object satisfaction level of set of objects 3 > the object satisfaction level of set of objects 2 > the object satisfaction level of set of objects 5 > the object satisfaction level of set of objects 1 > the object satisfaction level of set of objects 4 > the object satisfaction level of set of objects 6. After ranking, the search engine may provide the search results as follow: set of objects 3, set of objects 2, set of objects 5, set of objects 1, set of objects 4, and set of objects 6
Implementations of the present disclosure may output at least two sets of objects, provide recommendation and guidance to the user, and help the user to fine the object timely. In implementations, the operation behavioral data on an object may be defined based on various needs. For example, the user may need guidance for various operations including ordering, selecting, advertising, and/or purchasing items. In instances, the operation behavioral data on an object may be associated with purchasing information of the object associated with the user and/or other users.
In implementations, as for potential users, the operation behavioral data on an object may be associated with storing and/or bookmarking information of the object.
In implementations, if the user needs guidance of improvement on an object, the operation behavioral data on an object may be collected to be associated with click-through information of the object. The present disclosure is not particularly limited to this.
Implementations of the present disclosure may include ranking, by a search engine, at least two sets of objects based on an object satisfaction level of a user to an individual set of objects. The search engine may provide the ranked at least two sets of objects. The object satisfaction level may be obtained based on operation behavioral data on the individual set of objects and operation behavioral data of the user on an object of the individual set of objects. The outputted sets of objects are consistent with historic operation behavior of the user to sets of objects.
The implementations may solve data exchange problems caused by repeated search operations conducted by the user and further decrease data exchange between a local terminal and the search engine. This may reduce processing loads of the search engine. In addition, the technical solution provided meets the individual needs of users and increases accuracy of searches. In addition, the object satisfaction level may be obtained based on operation behavioral data on the
individual set of objects and operation behavioral data on an object of the individual set of objects.
In implementations, the object satisfaction level may be obtained more than merely the operation behavioral data on the individual set of objects or merely operation behavioral data on an object of the individual set of objects. This may effectively improve the accuracy of processing a set of objects.
In implementations, the implementations of the present disclosure may acquire the mapping relationship between a set of objections and an object of the set of objects without searching a corresponding object based on an attribute of the set of objects. This may effectively avoid extra overhead of searches.
