DATA SEARCH METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240095241 titled 'DATA SEARCH METHOD AND APPARATUS, AND DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a data search method and apparatus involving obtaining a search request with a query graph, determining query subgraphs, searching a target data graph for matching data subgraphs, and merging them to determine a search result.

  • The method involves obtaining a search request with a query graph formed by nodes and edges representing objects and association relationships, determining query subgraphs based on the query graph, searching for matching data subgraphs in a target data graph, and merging them to determine a search result.
  • The apparatus includes an electronic device capable of performing the data search method described above.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in various fields such as data analysis, information retrieval, and knowledge discovery.

Problems Solved

This technology helps in efficiently searching and retrieving relevant data from large datasets based on complex query structures.

Benefits

The method and apparatus provide a more effective and accurate way to search for data based on complex relationships between objects.

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications include search engines, data mining tools, and recommendation systems.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be traditional keyword-based search methods that do not consider complex relationships between objects in the search process.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology handle scalability issues when searching large datasets?

The abstract does not provide details on how the method addresses scalability concerns when dealing with massive amounts of data.

What are the limitations of this technology in terms of search accuracy and efficiency?

The abstract does not mention any potential limitations or drawbacks of the data search method and apparatus described.


Original Abstract Submitted

embodiments of this disclosure provide a data search method and apparatus, and an electronic device. the method includes obtaining a search request, where the search request includes a query graph formed by a plurality of nodes and a plurality of edges between the plurality of nodes, each node represents an object, and each edge represents an association relationship between objects; determining a plurality of query subgraphs based on the query graph, where each query subgraph includes a group of nodes in the plurality of nodes and edges between the group of nodes, and the plurality of query subgraphs have at least one same node in the plurality of nodes; searching a target data graph in parallel for data subgraphs that respectively match the plurality of query subgraphs; and merging the data subgraphs that respectively match the plurality of query subgraphs, to determine a search result that matches the query graph.
