Abstract

The disclosure provides an audio/video (A/V) searching method, an apparatus and a terminal, the method includes: receiving A/V querying statement; determine keyword from the A/V querying statement; obtaining at least one instance having association with the keyword; and constructing search result knowledge graph according to the keyword, instance and association between the keyword and the instance. The search result knowledge graph constructed according to embodiments of the disclosure presents, in the form of a diagram, the keyword of the A/V querying statement, the instance associated with the keyword, and the association between the keyword and the instance. The search result knowledge graph includes not only A/V search results corresponding to the A/V querying statement, but also the association between these results. Search results presented in this form are intuitive, concise, informative, and easy to use for the user, significantly enhancing user experience.

Claims

1. An audio/video (A/V) searching method, comprising:

receiving an A/V querying statement;

determining a keyword from the A/V querying statement;

obtaining at least one instance having association with the keyword; and

constructing a search result knowledge graph according to the keyword, the instance and the association between the keyword and the instance, wherein the search result knowledge graph is for presenting a search result corresponding to the A/V querying statement.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the obtaining at least one instance having association with the keyword comprises:

determining whether the keyword in the A/V querying statement is a subject keyword or an instance keyword, wherein the subject keyword indicates a genre in the field of A/V entertainment, the instance keyword indicates an instance under a subject keyword; and

obtaining at least one instance having association with the instance keyword and/or at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword according to the keyword.

3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the obtaining at least one instance having association with the keyword comprises:

if the keyword in the A/V querying statement is an instance keyword, obtaining at least one instance having association with the instance keyword; and

the constructing a search result knowledge graph according to the keyword, the instance and the association between the keyword and the instance comprises;

constructing the search result knowledge graph according to the instance keyword, the at least one instance and the association between the instance keyword and the at least one instance.

4. The method according to claim 1, wherein the obtaining at least one instance having association with the keyword comprises:

if the keyword in the A/V querying statement is a subject keyword, obtaining at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword; and

the constructing a search result knowledge graph according to the keyword, the instance and the association between the keyword and the instance comprises;

constructing the search result knowledge graph according to the subject keyword, the at least one instance and the association between the subject keyword and the at least one instance.

5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the obtaining at least one instance having association with the keyword comprises:

if the keyword in the A/V querying statement comprises a subject keyword and an instance keyword, obtaining at least one instance having association with the instance keyword and at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword;

the constructing a search result knowledge graph according to the keyword, the instance and the association between the keyword and the instance comprises;

constructing the search result knowledge graph according to the subject keyword, the instance keyword, the at least one instance having association with the instance keyword, the at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword, the association between the instance keyword and the at least one instance having association with the instance keyword, and the association between the subject keyword and the at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword.

6. The method according to claim 1, wherein after the constructing a search result knowledge graph according to the keyword, the instance and the association between the keyword and the instance, the method further comprises:

displaying the search result knowledge graph.

7. The method according to claim 1, wherein the receiving an A/V querying statement comprises:

receiving speech querying information for A/V; and

obtaining the A/V querying statement by performing speech recognition on the speech querying information.

8. An audio/video (A/V) searching apparatus, comprising:

a memory storing instructions;

a processor coupled with the memory and configured to execute the instructions stored in the memory, and the processor is configured to;

receive an A/V querying statement;

determine a keyword from the A/V querying statement;

obtain at least one instance having association with the keyword; and

construct a search result knowledge graph according to the keyword, the instance and the association between the keyword and the instance, wherein the search result knowledge graph is for presenting a search result corresponding to the A/V querying statement.

9. The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the processor is configured to:

determine whether the keyword in the A/V querying statement is a subject keyword or an instance keyword, wherein the subject keyword indicates a genre in the field of A/V entertainment, the instance keyword indicates an instance under a subject keyword; and

obtain at least one instance having association with the instance keyword and/or at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword according to the keyword.

10. The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the processor is configured to:

if the keyword in the A/V querying statement is an instance keyword, obtain at least one instance having association with the instance keyword; and

construct the search result knowledge graph according to the instance keyword, the at least one instance and the association between the instance keyword and the at least one instance.

11. The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the processor is configured to:

if the keyword in the A/V querying statement is a subject keyword, obtain at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword; and

construct the search result knowledge graph according to the subject keyword, the at least one instance and the association between the subject keyword and the at least one instance.

12. The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the processor is configured to:

if the keyword in the A/V querying statement comprises a subject keyword and an instance keyword, obtain at least one instance having association with the instance keyword and at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword;

construct the search result knowledge graph according to the subject keyword, the instance keyword, the at least one instance having association with the instance keyword, the at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword, the association between the instance keyword and the at least one instance having association with the instance keyword, and the association between the subject keyword and the at least one instance belonging to the subject keyword.

13. The apparatus according to claim 8, wherein the processor is further configured to:
