[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application. Unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used in this application should be the common meanings understood by people with ordinary skills in the field to which the invention belongs. "Include" or "comprising" and similar words mean that the elements or objects appearing before the word include the elements or objects listed after the word and their equivalents, without excluding other elements or objects. "Connect", "couple" or "connected" and similar words are not limited to physical or mechanical connections, but may include electrical connections, whether direct or indirect.

[0031] The translated text preview method for email attachments provided in the embodiments of the present application can be applied to a server or terminal. The server can be a physical server, a server cluster or distributed system consisting of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content delivery networks (CDNs), and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. The terminal can be a user equipment (UE) such as a mobile phone, smartphone, laptop, digital broadcast receiver, personal digital assistant (PDA), tablet computer (PAD), handheld device, vehicle-mounted device, wearable device, computing device, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, mobile station (MS), mobile terminal, etc. The terminal and server can be connected directly or indirectly via wired or wireless communication methods, which is not limited in this application.

[0032] This application's translated email attachment preview method is user-centric. Starting with a user-triggered preview action, it proceeds step-by-step through initial decision-making, content extraction, translation, caching, and visualization output. This process follows the sequential principle of "decision-first, processing second, interaction third," and divides the preview hierarchy into three levels, covering the entire user journey from "quick judgment" to "in-depth usage." These three levels include: Summary Level (L1): Loads within 5 seconds and displays a translated summary of the attachment's core information (title, key data, and conclusion); Paragraph Level (L2): Loads within 10 seconds and displays a comparison of the original and translated text for key sections / paragraphs; and Full Text Level (L3): Asynchronously loads the entire content, supporting full-text translation, format restoration, and in-depth operations (such as searching and exporting). Simultaneously, it emphasizes efficiency (e.g., L1 loading ≤ 5 seconds) and resource optimization (e.g., asynchronous loading of L3). The step design is based on feature integration to avoid redundant computation and supports real-time user interaction (e.g., switching between levels). This improves attachment processing efficiency while delivering a highly effective user experience.

[0033] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the drawings in the specification. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application. In addition, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other if there is no conflict.

[0034] Figure 1 A flowchart of a method for previewing the translation of an email attachment provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 As shown, the method may include:

[0035] Step S110 : In response to the user's translation preview operation on the email attachment in the preview interface, extract the attachment data of the email attachment.

[0036] In a specific implementation, the preview operation of the user on the email attachment in the email on the preview interface of the terminal is detected, such as clicking the attachment icon or clicking the attachment preview control, to extract the attachment data of the email attachment. The attachment data may include the attachment ID, attachment type (such as PDF, Word, Excel, PNG, etc.), attachment size (such as the unit can be MB), the user's historical behavior for the attachment type (such as high-frequency viewing behavior: TXT / Markdown), attachment content and content keywords (such as "contract" or "report", marking sensitive files), etc.

[0037] Step S120: Determine the current preview level based on the attachment data.

[0038] The current preview level may be a summary level, a paragraph level, or a full text level.

[0039] In a specific implementation, when the attachment size is not greater than a preset value (e.g., 5MB), and / or the user's historical behavior includes high-frequency viewing behavior, the current preview level is determined to be paragraph level L2;

[0040] When the size of the attachment is larger than a preset value, and / or the attachment type is identified as the first time the user has seen it, the current preview level is determined to be summary level L1, and a content loading control and corresponding function prompt information (such as "click to load more") are generated on the preview interface;

[0041] When the content keyword includes a preset sensitive keyword, the current preview level is determined to be summary level L1.

[0042] Furthermore, when the content keywords include preset sensitive keywords and the current preview level is the summary level, the natural language processing engine is used to scan the content to be previewed, and the sensitive fields identified in the preview content are masked in real time to generate the current summary, and a prompt is displayed at the top of the preview interface: "The current summary contains sensitive content, and details need to be loaded"; the masking process can be a text replacement process that replaces sensitive words with placeholders (such as [****]), or inserting a semi-transparent mask to cover the sensitive area in the web page preview interface to prevent the injection of directly copied DOM nodes.

[0043] In response to a user triggering a content loading control and confirming that the user has access to paragraph-level L2 or full-text level L3, the content that has been masked in the current summary is unmasked, and loading progress information (such as a loading progress percentage) for the paragraph-level L2 or full-text level L3 content is displayed on the preview interface, and the loaded content is displayed in real time using a highlighted display. Confirming that the user has access to paragraph-level L2 or full-text level L3 can be done by confirming whether the user is a frequent user of the terminal, or whether the user has historically accessed full-text email attachments of the same attachment type on the terminal. If so, it is determined that the user has access to paragraph-level L2 or full-text level L3.

[0044] Step S130: Using a preset content extraction algorithm corresponding to the current preview level, extract the content to be translated from the email attachment.

[0045] For summary level L1, the corresponding preset NLP summary model (such as BART) is used to extract the summary of the email attachment to obtain the summary information of the email attachment, that is, a concise summary (200-500 words) focusing on the first 10% of the key information of the original text (title, key data and conclusion).

[0046] For paragraph level L2, the core paragraphs of the email attachment are extracted through the corresponding preset text clustering algorithm (such as K-means) to obtain the paragraph information of the email attachment, that is, 30%-40% of the original content, including paragraph titles, charts and conclusion sentences.

[0047] For full-text level L3, the full text of the email attachment is extracted through the corresponding preset parsing engine (such as Apache POI parsing Word and Tabula parsing PDF tables) to obtain the full text information of the email attachment.

[0048] Step S140: Using the preset translation strategy corresponding to the current preview level and the configured preview level cache library, the content to be translated is translated to obtain the translated content to be previewed, and the translated content to be previewed is stored in the preview level cache library as the level translation result of the current preview level.

[0049] Select the corresponding preset translation strategy based on the current preview level;

[0050] Based on the preview level cache, the content to be translated is queried to determine if it matches the translated terms, reusable level translation results, and / or translation rules for the same attachment type stored in the preview level cache. The preview level cache is used to store translated terms, reusable level translation results, and translation rules for the same attachment type. To ensure translation consistency, the preview level cache has a three-level (lexical, paragraph, and file) caching mechanism, where:

[0051] Vocabulary-level caching: stores translated terms (e.g., "API" → "API", "Sales" → "Sales") to avoid different translations of the same word;

[0052] Paragraph-level cache: stores L1 / L2 translation results, which are directly reused when the user switches to L3, reducing repeated calculations;

[0053] File-level caching: For processed attachments of the same type (such as template contracts), the translation rules are cached to speed up the next loading.

[0054] After that, based on the matching results and attachment types, content translation is performed on the content to be translated to obtain the content to be previewed after translation, including: for L1 level, a lightweight translation model (such as the T5 small model) is used to translate keywords (such as "experimental results" → "Experimental results"), and the response time ≤ 2 seconds; for L2 level, a domain adaptation model is called (such as a professional API for technical documents and a legal term library for contracts) to perform paragraph translation and retain the original format (such as retaining the bold headings and table border formats in the original text); for L3 level, a context-related translation model is enabled (such as translating "this system" as "Thissystem" when it first appears, and reusing it later to avoid ambiguity) and user term library customization is supported (users can upload an industry glossary). That is to say, the content to be previewed after translation can be an abstract translation (including the translated attachment title and translated key data), a paragraph-by-paragraph comparison translation (the translated attachment paragraph data and the original paragraph data), or a full-text translation.

[0055] Step S150: Based on the current preview level and attachment type, display the content to be previewed to the user on the preview interface.

[0056] In specific implementation, this application supports multi-mode联动 preview: optimize the level display for different attachment types (document type, table type, and picture type).

[0057] (1) In the case where the attachment type is a document type:

[0058] If the current preview level is the abstract level, the content to be previewed (i.e., the abstract translation) includes the translated attachment title and the translated key data, and the translated attachment title and the translated key data are displayed to the user in a card-style display on the preview interface;

[0059] If the current preview level is the paragraph level, the content to be previewed (i.e., the paragraph-by-paragraph comparison translation) is the translated paragraph data and the original paragraph data, and the translated attachment paragraph data and the original paragraph data are displayed to the user in a columnar display on the preview interface;

[0060] If the current preview level is the full-text level, the content to be previewed (i.e., the full-text translation) is the full content of the translation, and the full content of the translation and the full content of the original text are displayed to the user in a columnar display that restores the original format (including fonts, indents, and charts), and the same sentence content in the full content of the translation and the full content of the original text is set with the same sentence-level index mark;

[0061] After that, in response to the user's selection operation on the full content of the original text, determine the sentence-level index mark involved in the selected area corresponding to the selection operation; the selection operation can include an operation of clicking on a sentence or selecting a continuous sentence by dragging a box;

[0062] According to the sentence-level index tags involved in the selection, the sentence content in the corresponding area in the full translation is triggered to be highlighted and displayed.

[0063] (2) When the attachment type is a table:

[0064] If the current preview level is the summary level, the content to be previewed includes the translation header and the first preset number of translation rows (header + first 5 rows) in the table. The translation header and translation row data are displayed to the user on the preview interface;

[0065] If the current preview level is paragraph level, the content to be previewed includes the key column data of the translation, which is displayed to the user in a highlighted manner on the preview interface;

[0066] If the current preview level is the full-text level, the content to be previewed includes all translated data in the table. Filter controls are provided on the preview interface to display all translated data (for example, only rows with "Profit > 1000") and all original data to the user through filtering and column display. Table data in the same table position in all translated data and all original data is assigned the same position ID.

[0067] Then, in response to a user selecting a table of all original text data, determining a location ID of a selected area corresponding to the selection operation; the selection operation may include clicking a table location or selecting consecutive table locations;

[0068] According to the position ID involved in the selected area, the table data of the corresponding area in the entire translation data is triggered to be highlighted and rendered and displayed.

[0069] (3) When the attachment type is a picture:

[0070] If the current preview level is the summary level, the content to be previewed is a text translation summary, and the text translation summary is displayed to the user on the preview interface;

[0071] If the current preview level is the paragraph level, the content to be previewed includes translated paragraph data, and the translated paragraph data is displayed to the user in the preview interface by superimposing a clickable translated floating layer on the image;

[0072] If the current preview level is the full text level, the content to be previewed is the entire translated text data, and an image with all the original text data and all the translated text data marked on it is displayed on the preview interface (for example, the original text is gray and the translated text is colored).

[0073] In other words: Documents (Word / PDF): Level 1 uses a card-style summary (title + key data); Level 2 uses a column display (original paragraph on the left, translated paragraph on the right); Level 3 restores the original document formatting (including fonts, indents, and charts). Tables (Excel): Level 1 displays the table header and the first five rows of translation (e.g., "Date Sales" → "Date Sales"); Level 2 highlights key columns (e.g., "Profit") and translates the cells; Level 3 supports filtering (only displaying translated rows where "Profit > 1000"). Images (PNG / JPG): Level 1 uses OCR to extract text and generate a translated summary; Level 2 overlays the translated text on the original image (clicking on the text area displays the translation); Level 3 exports annotated images with the translated text.

[0074] In some embodiments, the preview interface may include: a level switching control for switching between different preview levels;

[0075] After the current preview level is determined in step S120, the preview level can be adjusted according to the level switching control on the preview interface. Specifically:

[0076] In response to the user's triggering operation on the level switching control, an indicator box containing the level switching direction is displayed. The level switching direction may include an option to switch the current preview level to a different target preview level, where the target preview level is any other preview level except the current preview level; for example, the current preview level is L1, and the target preview level may be L2 and L3, that is, the level switching direction at this time may include the level switching direction from L1 to L2 and the level switching direction from L1 to L3. For another example, the current preview level is L2, and the target preview level may also be L1 and L3, that is, the level switching direction at this time may include the level switching direction from L2 to L1 and the level switching direction from L2 to L3, that is, the level switching direction may be bidirectional.

[0077] In response to a user's selection operation on a target selection item, it is determined that a current preview level is switched to a target preview level corresponding to the target selection item, and the target preview level is determined as a new current preview level.

[0078] Afterwards, the preset content extraction algorithm corresponding to the new current preview level is used to extract the content to be translated from the email attachment.

[0079] In some embodiments, after the current preview level is determined in step S120, the preview level may be adjusted based on the user's behavior. Specifically:

[0080] Based on the user's past viewing behavior for email attachments of the same or similar types (such as viewing time and key focus), recent operation records (such as whether they have just viewed a contract document and deeply examined specific clauses), and other data, a configured prediction model is used to predict the user's demand for the content of the current email attachment.

[0081] The preview level is dynamically adjusted based on the predicted content demand level. Specifically, if the predicted content demand level indicates that the user may need more detailed content, the current preview level is automatically upgraded by one level (e.g., from L1 to L2).

[0082] Furthermore, if the predicted content demand level indicates that the user is particularly interested in a specific part (such as the test results part in a technical document), the preview content of that part can be loaded in advance and highlighted.

[0083] Furthermore, the user's operational behaviors during the preview process (such as clicking to load more, switching levels, and staying in an area for a long time) will be recorded and fed back to the intelligent prediction module for further optimization of the prediction model.

[0084] In some cases, traditional translation previews focus on a single attachment, ignoring the relevance of multiple attachments in email scenarios. This application addresses cross-attachment reference resolution (e.g., "this contract" refers to multiple files), breaking through the limitations of single-attachment translation. It also identifies semantic relevance across multiple attachments within the same email thread (e.g., the main contract text and supplementary agreements), achieving cross-attachment terminology uniformity.

[0085] In specific implementation, when an email contains multiple associated attachments, the content to be translated of the first attachment is translated based on the preset translation strategy corresponding to the current preview level and the configured preview level cache library. After obtaining the translated content to be previewed, the preview level cache library is updated for the content to be previewed of the first attachment. Subsequent associated attachments use the updated preview level cache library and display the changed terms marked with highlighting.

[0086] Extract the attachment content of all email attachments in the current email; by checking the naming similarity (such as "Contract_V1.pdf" and "Contract_V2.pdf") and the overlap of content keywords (such as the "Party A and Party B" clause), establish a mapping relationship between different terms (such as "Party A") and the attachment ID of the associated attachment;

[0087] Execute steps S120 - S140 on the first attachment, and cache the translated terms involved in the first attachment (such as "Party A on the first side → Party A") and the mapping relationship between different terms (such as "Party A on the first side") and the attachment IDs of associated attachments in the preview - level cache library; then, in combination with the preview - level cache library at this time, execute steps S120 - S140 on each associated attachment, where the terms of the first attachment are automatically inherited (to avoid translating "Party A on the first side" as "First Party" in the supplementary agreement).

[0088] If the terms of an associated attachment change (such as changing "Party A on the first side" to "Lessor"), prompt the user to confirm on the preview interface.

[0089] In some embodiments, during the execution of step S140, for format differences in different languages (such as no capitalization of the first letter in Chinese paragraphs and different place - holders of Arabic numerals in Chinese and English), the traditional solution only restores the surface format, while this application can achieve deep alignment through the intelligent alignment technology of cross - language format semantics. Among them, the intelligent alignment technology of cross - language format semantics can include:

[0090] (1) Establish a mapping relationship between language and format features, such as the mapping relationship between the format of "bold + full stop" indicating a strong conclusion in English and "【】+ exclamation mark" in Chinese;

[0091] (2) Adaptive word - length change of tables across languages. For example, when the column width of an English table changes after translating into Chinese (such as "description" being translated as "描述" and the column width shortening), the optimal column width can be predicted through machine - learning algorithms (prediction based on historical change data and / or adjustment data of similar tables) to avoid line - wrapping of table content;

[0092] (3) Intelligent replacement of punctuation marks in multiple languages. For example, convert the English "-" (connector) to "——" (dash) in the Chinese context while retaining the original format's indentation distance to ensure visual consistency.

[0093] During the content translation process of step S140, based on the matching result, attachment type, and the intelligent alignment technology of cross - language format semantics, perform content translation on the content to be translated to obtain the content to be previewed after translation.

[0094] [[ID=二十一]]The above - mentioned implementation method breaks through the mindset of "format restoration = pixel - level replication" and regards format as part of semantics for cross - language adaptation.

[0095] In some embodiments, for the issue of tracing the responsibility for the translation accuracy of sensitive documents (such as contracts and legal instruments), blockchain technology is introduced to achieve full - link evidence storage of the translation process:

[0096] After L2 / L3 translation is completed, a translation hash value is automatically generated, including the original text segment, translation, operation timestamp, and other information, and uploaded to the consortium chain (such as Hyperledger Fabric);

[0097] When a user modifies an L2 / L3 translation, the difference between the modification and the modification is recorded (e.g., manually correcting the translation of "liquidated damages" from "penalty" to "liquidated damages"). At the same time, a new translation hash value is generated for the modified translation and associated with the original translation hash value to form an unalterable version chain. The version chain, the new translation hash value, and the modification difference are then uploaded to the consortium chain.

[0098] This implementation generates a series of interconnected hash values ​​over time, with each hash value dependent on the previous version's hash value. If someone attempts to tamper with any version of the data in the chain, all subsequent hash values ​​will become invalid. This forms a secure, transparent, and tamper-proof version chain, ensuring data integrity and authenticity.

[0099] In some embodiments, for mixed-type attachments containing text, tables, and images (e.g., a PDF containing both product descriptions, specification tables, and circuit diagrams), traditional solutions treat each modal content in isolation. This application can use cross-level association technology for multimodal attachments. This technology breaks down the modal barriers of text, tables, and images and builds a unified knowledge association network. Specifically:

[0100] After extracting the content to be translated from the email attachment in step S130, multimodal association detection can be performed on the email attachment based on the configured cross-level association technology for multimodal attachments to obtain multimodal association information, and the extracted content to be translated can be expanded based on the multimodal association information.

[0101] Specifically, at level 2, an entity recognition model (such as BERT-BiLSTM) is used to extract "parameter value" entities from tables (e.g., "voltage: 220V") and "component names" from images (e.g., "resistor R1" in a circuit diagram using optical character recognition). These entities are then associated with relevant descriptions in the text (e.g., "device power" corresponds to the "power" column in the table), thereby generating multimodal association information.

[0102] At level L3, "cross-modal search" is supported: the user enters "power parameters of resistor R1" and simultaneously searches for descriptions in the text, values ​​in the table, and annotations in the picture to obtain multi-modal related information (such as "text: R1 is a core component; table: power 5W; picture: location in the upper left corner of the circuit diagram").

[0103] This application provides a method for previewing the translation of email attachments, which enables efficient and accurate preview of the translated email attachments and significantly improves the efficiency of users in processing email attachments. Specifically,

[0104] (1) The most suitable preview level (summary level, paragraph level, or full text level) can be automatically determined based on the user's historical behavior, content keywords, and the characteristics of the attachment itself (such as type and size). This personalized preview method improves the user experience and enables users to quickly obtain the information they need.

[0105] (2) We use corresponding preset content extraction algorithms and translation strategies for different preview levels to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of translation. In this way, we can provide users with translation results that are more in line with their needs while also saving resource consumption.

[0106] (3) Using the preview level cache library to store translated terms, reusable level translation results, and translation rules for the same attachment type not only improves translation speed but also ensures consistency in terms and expressions.

[0107] (4) It can flexibly display the content to be previewed based on the current preview level and attachment type, and can self-adjust and optimize as user usage habits change.
