Electronic devices and methods for viewing images

Abstract

To provide an electronic device and a method in which a user preloads a plurality of images based on the image which is currently viewed.SOLUTION: The method includes: obtaining a plurality of images including a first image having a first value and a second value; generating a directory of data by assigning the first image to a first directory of the directory of data and assigning the first image to a first subdirectory of the first directory according to the second value; generating the first image by assigning the first image to the first subdirectory of the first directory according to the second value; in response to the first image being selected, preloading a second image within a second directory of the directory of data to a cache memory according to the directory of data; and outputting a graphical user interface which displays the first image in response to the first image being selected.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9

Claims

1. An electronic device for viewing images, Transmitter and receiver, Cache memory and A processor coupled to the transceiver and the cache memory, Multiple images are acquired via the aforementioned transceiver, including a first image containing a first value and a second value. A data directory is generated, and the data directory is generated by assigning the first image to the first directory of the data directory based on the first value, and assigning the first image to the first subdirectory of the first directory based on the second value. The preloading includes, in response to the selection of the first image, preloading the second image in the second directory of the data directory into the cache memory based on the data directory, determining a first deviation between the rank of the first directory of the data directory and the rank of the second directory of the data directory, determining whether the first deviation is less than or equal to a first range limit, and preloading the second image in the second directory if the first deviation is less than or equal to the first range limit, The transceiver outputs a graphical user interface that displays the first image in response to the selection of the first image. A processor configured in such a way including, electronic equipment.

2. The aforementioned processor, The third image in the third directory of the aforementioned data directory is preloaded into the cache memory. It is further composed The third directory in the data directory is ranked before the second directory in the data directory. The electronic device according to claim 1.

3. The aforementioned processor, In response to the selection of the first image, the fourth image in the first subdirectory is preloaded into the cache memory based on the data directory. It is further composed of The electronic device according to claim 1.

4. The aforementioned processor, Determine the second deviation between the rank of the first image in the first subdirectory and the rank of the fourth image in the first subdirectory. Determine whether the second deviation is less than or equal to the second range limit. Depending on whether the second deviation is less than or equal to the second range limit, the fourth image is preloaded. It is further composed of The electronic device according to claim 3.

5. The aforementioned processor, Output a graphical user interface via the aforementioned transceiver. It is further structured as follows: The graphical user interface displays multiple images based on a count value. The electronic device according to claim 4.

6. The aforementioned processor, The second range limit is determined based on the aforementioned count value. It is further composed of The electronic device according to claim 5.

7. The aforementioned processor, If the second deviation is less than or equal to the second range limit, and depending on whether the fourth image is the first or last image in the first subdirectory, or whether the first image is the first or last image in the first subdirectory, the preload allocation amount is saved. Determine the number of preloaded images in the first directory, Depending on whether the number of preloaded images is less than or equal to the count value, the second image in the second directory is preloaded according to the preload allocation amount. It is further composed of The electronic device according to claim 4.

8. The aforementioned processor, After the fourth image is preloaded, the fifth image in the first subdirectory is preloaded into the cache memory. It is further structured as follows: The fifth image in the first subdirectory is positioned before the fourth image in the first subdirectory. The electronic device according to claim 4.

9. The aforementioned first image further includes a third value, The aforementioned processor, To generate the directory of the aforementioned data, the first images in the first subdirectory are sorted based on the third value. It is further composed of The electronic device according to claim 1.

10. A method for viewing images, The method involves acquiring multiple images, wherein the multiple images include a first image, and the first image includes a first value and a second value. The method involves generating a data directory, wherein the data directory is generated by assigning the first image to a first directory of the data directory based on the first value, and assigning the first image to a first subdirectory of the first directory based on the second value. Preloading a second image in a second directory of a data directory into a cache memory based on the data directory, in response to the selection of the first image, the preloading includes: determining the deviation between the rank of the first directory in the data directory and the rank of the second directory in the data directory; determining whether the deviation is less than or equal to a first range limit; and preloading the second image in the second directory in response to the deviation being less than or equal to the first range limit. Outputting a graphical user interface, wherein the graphical user interface displays the first image in response to the selection of the first image. including, method.

11. The third image in the third directory of the data directory is preloaded into the cache memory, wherein the third directory in the data directory is ranked earlier than the second directory in the data directory. This also includes, The method according to claim 10.

12. In response to the selection of the first image, the fourth image in the first subdirectory is preloaded into the cache memory based on the data directory. This also includes, The method according to claim 10.
