Abstract
A method of providing an image search result online using device information including: receiving an input of a search query; identifying first device information of a device from the search query; indexing an image that matches the first device information by comparing the first device information to second device information included in metadata of the image; and providing the indexed image that matches the first device information as a search result of the search query.
Claims15
A method of providing an image search result including images produced by a device online using device information, the method comprising:
- receiving a textual input of a search query including model information of the device;
- identifying first device information of the device from the search query;
- indexing an image produced by the device that matches the first device information by comparing the first device information to second device information included in metadata of the image;
- and
- providing the indexed image produced by the device that matches the first device information as a search result of the search query,
- wherein the providing of the indexed image comprises:
- providing an image uploaded by a user that is captured from an example of the device matching the first device information as the search result, metadata of the uploaded image including the first device information,
- wherein the indexing of the image further comprises:
- extracting the second device information associated with the first device information from non-image content associated with the image in which the image is included, in response to determining that the metadata of the image does not include the second device information;
- and
- indexing the image included in the non-image content, and
- wherein the non-image content comprises one or more of a web document, a blog, or a news article of the device that is separate from and not a part of the first device information.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method of providing an image search result including images produced by a device online using device information, comprising:
- receiving a textual input of a search query including model information of the device;
- identifying first device information of the device from the search query;
- indexing an image produced by the device that matches the first device information by comparing the first device information and second device information included in metadata of the image;
- and
- providing the indexed image produced by the device that matches the first device information to be output as a search result of the search query,
- wherein the providing of the indexed image comprises:
- providing an image uploaded by a user that is captured from an example of the device matching the first device information as the search result, metadata of the uploaded image including the first device information,
- wherein the indexing of the image further comprises:
- extracting the second device information associated with the first device information from non-image content associated with the image in which the image is included, in response to determining that the metadata of the image does not include the second device information;
- and
- indexing the image included in the non-image content, and
- wherein the non-image content comprises one or more of a web document, a blog, or a news article of the device that is separate from and not a part of the first device information.
An online image search result including images produced by a device providing system, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- at least one processor connected to the memory, and configured to execute computer readable instructions included in the memory,
- wherein the at least one processor is configured to:
- receive a textual input of a search query including model information of the device;
- identify first device information of the device from the search query;
- index an image produced by the device that matches the first device information by comparing the first device information to second device information included in metadata of the image, and
- provide an image produced by the device matching the first device information as a search result of the search query, metadata of the uploaded image including the first device information,
- wherein the instructions to index the image further comprises instructions to cause the processor to:
- extract the second device information associated with the first device information from non-image content associated with the image in which the image is included, in response to determining that the metadata of the image does not include the second device information;
- and
- index the image included in the non-image content, and
- wherein the non-image content comprises one or more of a web document, a blog, or a news article of the device that is separate from and not a part of the first device information.
