Video Search Using Reply Video Associations for Higher Match Accuracy
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing video search methods often fail to provide videos with high matching degrees to user search queries, leading to reduced accuracy, efficiency, and engagement in video search experiences.
Innovation Solution
A video search method that identifies and retrieves reply videos generated by commentary content under a main video, along with videos of the same category, using key information to narrow search ranges and enhance video associations, thereby improving click-through and viewing rates.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional video search methods are used, then the search process is simple, but the search accuracy and association with user interests are low
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the video search process into multiple stages: initial video retrieval based on search keywords, reply video identification from commentary content, and associative video screening. This segmentation allows the system to progressively refine search results from general to highly specific, improving accuracy without overwhelming complexity at any single stage
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-identifying reply videos and their associations with main videos and category videos before the actual search query. This pre-processing creates a structured database of video relationships that enables faster and more accurate search results when users submit queries
2Productivity
If only main videos are provided in search results, then the search process is straightforward, but the engagement and click-through rates are reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple video types (main videos, reply videos, and category videos) into a unified search result set. This combination provides users with diverse content options including original videos and related commentary replies, increasing engagement and viewing rates while maintaining a coherent search experience
3Measurement precision
If reply videos are identified and associated with main videos, then the matching degree with user interests is improved, but the search processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary identification and association of reply videos with their corresponding main videos and category videos before actual search execution. This pre-processing creates ready-to-use associations that can be quickly retrieved during search, improving matching degree without significantly increasing processing time during user queries
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by selectively identifying reply videos that have high relevance to the search query rather than processing all possible reply videos uniformly. This targeted approach improves matching degree for relevant results while minimizing processing time by focusing computational resources on the most promising candidates

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a video search method, apparatus, server, and terminal device, the method comprising: acquiring search information; parsing the search information to acquire at least one field; when it is determined that there is a first video in a pre-built database that matches the search information according to the at least one field, acquiring the first video when a second video having an association with the search information is screened out from the database according to the first video, taking the first video and the second video as a search result and sending it to a terminal device, wherein the first video is a reply video which is generated by an object according to commentary content under any main video, and the second video comprises the main video, and/or, a video of the same category as the first video.
