Solution Overview

Problem

Current intelligent search technologies primarily rely on direct matching of user input with media object content, which lacks accuracy and fails to consider category-specific key information, leading to suboptimal search results.

Innovation Solution

A search method and apparatus that obtain and output target media objects by matching search information with both search key information and category key information, utilizing similarity comparisons and producer characteristic information to enhance accuracy, and employing a classification model and association knowledge graph for improved search efficiency and relevance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If direct matching of search information with media object content is used, then search process is simple, but search accuracy is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesearch accuracyVSAvoidsearch process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The search process is segmented into multiple independent matching stages: first matching search key information with media object search key information, then matching category key information with category information. This segmentation allows each stage to focus on specific aspects, improving overall accuracy without requiring the entire process to be overly complex.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The search matching is extended from a single dimension (content matching) to multiple dimensions by incorporating category key information as an additional matching criterion. This dimensional expansion enables the system to evaluate both content relevance and category appropriateness simultaneously, thereby improving search accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Reliability

If only media object content matching is performed, then processing is fast, but search results lack comprehensiveness

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesearch result relevanceVSAvoidsearch processing efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

Category key information is extracted and prepared in advance for each category, enabling rapid matching during the search process. This preliminary preparation avoids the need for complex real-time category analysis, maintaining processing efficiency while improving result relevance through comprehensive category-based filtering.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

3Measurement precision

If category-specific key information is incorporated, then search relevance improves, but matching process becomes more complex

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvesearch relevanceVSAvoidmatching process complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

Category key information serves as an intermediary element that bridges the search query and media object content. Instead of directly complex matching between query and content, the system uses category key information as a mediator to facilitate the matching process, simplifying the overall logic while improving relevance.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
