327 results about "Semantic search" patented technology

Techniques for providing semantic search of a data store are disclosed. A similarity metric of a document comprising the data store to a concept represented in a semantic model derived at least in part from a reference source that includes content not included in the data store is determined. A relevance metric of a search query to the concept is computed. The similarity metric and the relevance metric are used to determine, at least in part, a ranking of the document with respect to the search query.

The invention relates to a visual keyword based remote sensing image semanteme searching method. The method comprises the following steps: setting visual keywords which describe image contents in an image base; selecting a training image from the image base; extracting remarkable visual characteristics of each training image, wherein the remarkable visual characteristics include remarkable points, main dominant tone and texture; acquiring a key mode through a cluster center of a cluster algorithm; establishing a visual keyword hierarchical model by adopting a Gaussian mixture model; extracting the remarkable visual characteristics of all images in the image base, setting weight parameters, and constructing a visual keyword characteristic vector describing the image semanteme; and calculating the similarity between an image to be searched and all images according to the similarity criterion, and outputting a search result according to the high-low sequence of the similarity. The method can effectively improve the recall ratio and the precision ratio of image searching by establishing the correlation between low-layer remarkable visual characteristics and high-layer semantic information through the visual keywords, and the technical scheme provided by the invention has excellent expansibility.
