The invention discloses a multi-
modal data retrieval method and device, a storage medium and
computer equipment. The method comprises the following steps: collecting multi-
modal original data; on the basis of description information of
metadata of
original data, all
metadata belonging to the same associated items and logic relations among all the
metadata are obtained, a metadata chain is constructed, a distributed
graph database is constructed on the basis of the metadata chain, the metadata chain is expressed in the distributed
graph database in the form of a graph, the graph comprises nodes and edges, the nodes represent the metadata, and the edges represent the metadata. The edge represents a
logical relationship between the metadata; and when a
data retrieval instruction is received, traversing each node in the metadata chain along the
logical relationship of the metadata chain in the distributed
graph database, obtaining a target node matched with a
data retrieval requirement corresponding to the data retrieval instruction, and returning
original data corresponding to metadata represented by the target node. Multi-
modal data dynamic association retrieval can be realized, and cross-modal
information mining efficiency and accuracy are improved.
