[0049] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in this application belong to the scope protected by this application.

[0050] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects, rather than to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of this application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are usually of the same type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the description and claims means at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / ", generally represents an "or" relationship between the associated objects before and after.

[0051] The method for finding an item provided by the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0052] Figure 1 is a schematic flowchart of the method for finding an item according to the embodiments of this application, as Figure 1 shown, the method for finding an item according to the embodiments of this application includes the following steps 12 to step 16.

[0053] Step 12, receive a user's item search request, where the item query request is used to find the location of a target item.

[0054] In step 12, the user can query for an item by opening a preset item search application. For example, open the target interface of the item search application to find the target item. The target item is the item that the user wants to find, and the target item can be recorded in the item search application through prior item registration.

[0055] Figure 2 shows a schematic flowchart of the item registration steps according to the embodiments of this application, as Figure 2 shown, the specific steps are as follows:

[0056] Step 101, for items that the user considers to be perishable items, the appearance characteristics of the item can be photographed to register the item.

[0057] For example, when the user always forgets his / her teacup, he / she can open the registration function of the item search application and photograph the teacup. The user can photograph the teacup from multiple angles to extract the appearance characteristics of the item, and mark the item with these appearance characteristics as "teacup".

[0058] Step 102, during the registration process, determine whether the currently registered item is equipped with a signal transmitter. If it is equipped with a signal transmitter, the signal of the signal transmitter can be registered for the item. For example, register the frequency band of the signal emitted by the signal transmitter as the signal characteristic of the signal transmitter. If not, go to step 103.

[0059] The user can choose whether to register the signal characteristics of the signal transmitter together with the appearance characteristics of the item.

[0060] Step 103, if the item does not have a signal transmitter, it can be not registered or registered later as a supplement to the image recognition method. Registering the signal transmitter equipped with each item can further improve the accuracy of item search.

[0061] Step 104, at this time, the item information registration is completed. The user can open the preset item registration interface to view all the registered items and delete or re-register the registered items.

[0062] Through item registration, the user can register the appearance information of perishable items at low cost and quickly, so as to link with subsequent map label generation functions and item search functions. In addition, with the help of devices such as signal transmitters, the recognition accuracy of perishable items can be further improved.

[0063] Step 14, in response to the item search request, query whether there is a map label of the target item in the target database, where the map label is used to record the location information of the target item, and the target database is used to store the map labels of perishable items.

[0064] The map labels of perishable items can be pre-generated and stored in the target database.

[0065] Optionally, before receiving the user's item search request, it further includes the step of generating the map label of the target item. Specifically, it includes: receiving the user's item recognition request; in response to the item recognition request, recognizing the user's surrounding items based on the characteristics of the target item; if it is recognized that the surrounding items include the target item, obtaining the current location information and the current time information; based on the current location information and the current time information, generating the target map label of the target item.

[0066] The user's item recognition request is that when the user is about to leave a certain place and is worried that there may be items lost, the user can trigger the target function on the preset item search application, such as the look-around and take-picture function, and then send out the item recognition request.

[0067] Optionally, in response to the item recognition request, recognizing the user's surrounding items based on the characteristics of the target item includes: in response to the item recognition request, obtaining the captured image of the surrounding items; based on the appearance characteristics of the target item, recognizing whether the captured image includes the target item.

[0068] In this embodiment, after receiving the user's item recognition request, the camera of the corresponding electronic device is called to perform panoramic shooting or multi-angle shooting on the surrounding environment of the user, and a captured image including surrounding items is obtained. Through image recognition, the appearance features of the surrounding items are extracted and compared with the appearance features of the items registered by the user, so as to identify whether there are any lost items registered by the user among the surrounding items.

[0069] Optionally, in response to the item recognition request, recognizing the user's surrounding items based on the features of the target item includes: in response to the item recognition request, obtaining the signal emitted by the signal transmitter bound to the surrounding item; based on the signal features of the signal emitted by the signal transmitter bound to the target item, identifying whether the target item is included in the surrounding objects.

[0070] In this embodiment, after receiving the user's item recognition request, the signal recognizer of the corresponding electronic device is called to receive and recognize the emitted signals in the surrounding environment. Through signal frequency band recognition, the signal features of the surrounding items are extracted and compared with the signal features of the items registered by the user, so as to identify whether there are any lost items registered by the user among the surrounding items.

[0071] If it is recognized that there are lost items registered by the user among the surrounding items, a map label corresponding to the item is generated according to the current location and current time of the user. For the case where multiple registered items are recognized, map labels for each registered item can be generated respectively.

[0072] The map labels of each registered item may include the item name, date, and geographical location. For the registered items recognized by image recognition, the captured image of the recognized registered item may also be included for subsequent display to the user for viewing. For the registered items recognized by signal recognition, it includes the item name, date, and geographical location.

[0073] Figure 3 A flowchart showing the steps of generating map labels in the embodiment of the present application is given, as Figure 3 shown, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0074] Step 201, the user opens the camera for shooting through the look-around shooting function on the preset item search application.

[0075] Step 202, during the look-around shooting process, an interface as Figure 4 shown can be displayed. In this interface, the user can intuitively check whether there are any lost items registered by themselves in the current scene.

[0076] Step 203, during the recognition process in Step 202, the registered items are screened through image recognition. When it is determined that the similarity between a certain item and the registered item exceeds the defined threshold, this item will be highlighted and the corresponding registered item will be added to the Figure 4 recognized items shown. In addition, if the signal of the signal transmitter is detected, the corresponding registered item will also be added to the Figure 4 recognized items shown.

[0077] For example, through image recognition, the appearance features of the shoes and hairpins in the captured image are respectively recognized, and if they match the appearance features of the user's registered items, the items "hairpin" and "shoes" recognized by the current look-around photo-taking function can be added to the Figure 4 recognized items shown below.

[0078] Step 204, after the recognition result is generated by the current look-around photo-taking function, the user can select whether to take away the items recognized below.

[0079] In one embodiment, if the user performs a preset operation on a certain recognized item shown, such as swiping it out of the screen or clicking, long-pressing, etc., it can be regarded that the user selects to take away this item, and the taken-away item can be considered as an item that the user is not likely to lose. A map label corresponding to the item can be generated and stored in the database. Figure 4

[0080] Step 205, when an item is recognized in Step 202 and not selected by the user to take away in Step 204, it is considered that this item is an item that the user is likely to lose and needs to be searched for later. The current location information is automatically obtained to generate a corresponding map label and stored in the database. At the same time, an item label of this item is generated at this position on the map. The item label is a label generated according to the map label of the item for front-end display to the user to remind the user of the location of this item. The position where the item label is located usually represents the last position where the item appeared.

[0081] Step 206, after the operation of generating the item label in Step 205 is completed, the user is reminded of the item label with the current location generated, and the location of this item is shown on the map for the user to view.

[0082] Step 207, after the user activates the look-around photo-taking function, the system determines that the user hopes to leave the current position. In the next period of time, it can be checked whether the signal of the registered item is received, and the signal of the registered item is further inspected according to the signal characteristics.

[0083] If no registered item is recognized, it ends. If a registered item is recognized by the signal, go to Step 205, and generate a map label of this item according to the user's current location and current time.

[0084] Step 16, if there is a map label of the target item, display the location information corresponding to the map label of the target item to the user.

[0085] Optionally, displaying the location information corresponding to the map label of the target item to the user includes: obtaining the latest generated target map label according to the time in the map label of the target item; and displaying the location information corresponding to the target map label to the user.

[0086] As described above, after receiving the item recognition request of the user, a corresponding map label is generated based on the current location and time of the recognized item. If the user sends the item recognition request multiple times at different locations, multiple different map labels can be generated for the same item.

[0087] After receiving the search request of the user for the target item, multiple map labels of the target item at different times and different locations may be obtained from the target database.

[0088] Therefore, when displayed to the user, the last generated map label can be obtained from the database, and an item label is generated accordingly and displayed to the user, for example Figure 5 as shown. Thus, the last location and time of the item requested to be searched by the user will be prompted.

[0089] Optionally, if the user does not find the target item according to the location information corresponding to the target map label, it further includes: receiving the map label acquisition request of the user; in response to the map label acquisition request, querying all the map labels generated corresponding to the target item; and sequentially displaying the location information corresponding to all the map labels to the user according to the time in all the map labels.

[0090] In this embodiment, if the target item cannot be found according to the latest generated map label, it may be because the location of the subsequent target item has changed, but the user has not generated a map label in time. Or, there may be an error in image recognition or signal recognition of the map label.

[0091] Therefore, the map labels generated by the target item at different times and locations can be obtained and displayed to the user. The user can recall the possible locations of the target item according to the time and location information corresponding to the map label, so as to facilitate finding the target item. Or, verify whether there is an error in recognition according to the captured image used in image recognition, resulting in the failure to find the target item.

[0092] Optionally, if there is no map label of the target item, it further includes: querying the map labels of other items in the target database; presenting to the user the location information corresponding to the map labels of other items during the target time period.

[0093] In this embodiment, if there is no map label of the target item, it may be because the target item has not been registered, or has been registered but not recognized according to the user's item recognition request.

[0094] Therefore, based on the map labels of other registered items, a rough location activity range is generated for the user to remind the user of the possible locations where the target item is lost, so as to facilitate the search for the target item. Even if the user has not registered a specified item, the lost item can be quickly found through the rough range provided by the above steps.

[0095] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram of the overall process of the item search method according to an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 6 shown, it includes the following steps:

[0096] Step 301, when the user discovers that one of his registered items is lost, he can go to the corresponding interface of the preset item search application to search for the item.

[0097] Step 302, check whether there is an item label of item A on the map. The item label will show the location where the item last appeared.

[0098] Step 303, if it is determined in step 302 that item A has an item label, the user will be prompted with the location where the item label of item A is located.

[0099] Step 304, if the item label of item A is not found in step 302, or the user does not find item A at the location corresponding to the item label in step 303, it will then be determined whether item A has a map label.

[0100] Step 305, if it is found in step 304 that item A has a map label, these map labels will be presented to the user in reverse chronological order. If it is image recognition in the surround photography function, the presentation form will be the map location, time, and the photo used to recognize item A by its appearance features (item A is highlighted). If it is signal identifier recognition, only the map location and time will be presented.

[0101] Step 306, if item A does not have a map label, it will be determined whether there are map labels generated by other items within a predetermined time period for the user, for example, within the last 7 days.

[0102] Step 307: If there are map tags generated by other items, the possible range where the lost item A may be located will be delimited according to the positions corresponding to these items' map tags and presented to the user.

[0103] In the embodiment of the present application, in response to the user's item search request, it is queried whether there is a map tag of the target item in the target database, where the map tag is used to record the location information of the target item, and the target database is used to store the map tags of lost items; if there is a map tag of the target item, the location information corresponding to the map tag of the target item is presented to the user. Thus, by presenting the location of the item on the map to the user, the user can intuitively view the possible locations of their lost items on the map. Through such map tags, the user can have a clear understanding of the possible locations of their items. It is not only simple and convenient but also can improve the success rate of finding lost items.

[0104] Optionally, as Figure 7 shown, the embodiment of the present application also provides a method for generating a map tag, including:

[0105] Step 22: Receive the user's item identification request;

[0106] Step 24: In response to the item identification request, identify the user's surrounding items based on the characteristics of the target item, where the target item is the user's lost item;

[0107] Step 26: If it is identified that the target item is included in the surrounding items, obtain the current location information and the current time information;

[0108] Step 28: Generate a map tag of the target item based on the current location information and the current time information.

[0109] Through the map tag generation method of the embodiment of the present invention, the lost items of the user are identified and location tags are automatically generated, which can greatly reduce the possibility of the user losing items. When the user cannot find an item, they can quickly confirm the possible location of the item through the map tag.

[0110] The map tag generation method provided by the embodiment of the present application can correspondingly implement Figure 3 each process implemented by the embodiment of the steps for generating a map tag. To avoid repetition, it will not be elaborated here.

[0111] Optionally, as Figure 8 shown, the embodiment of the present application also provides an item registration method, including:

[0112] Step 32: Receive the user's item registration request;

[0113] Step 34: In response to the item registration request, obtain the appearance feature information of the target item, where the target item is the user's perishable item;

[0114] Step 36: Based on the appearance feature information of the target item and the name information of the target item, perform item registration.

[0115] Optionally, in response to the item registration request, it further includes: obtaining the signal feature emitted by the signal transmitter bound to the target item; based on the appearance feature information of the target item, the signal feature, and the name information of the target item, perform item registration.

[0116] Through the item registration method of the embodiments of the present invention, the user can register the appearance information of perishable items at low cost and quickly for linkage with subsequent map label generation functions and lost item search functions.

[0117] In addition, the user can also use devices such as signal transmitters to further improve the recognition accuracy of perishable items.

[0118] The item registration method provided by the embodiments of the present application can correspondingly implement Figure 2 each process implemented by the item registration step embodiments. To avoid repetition, it will not be elaborated here.
