  The present invention relates to a technique for efficiently referencing / browsing content included in a large amount of search results accessed and extracted via a network such as the Internet.

With the spread and expansion of the Internet, various information is collected, referenced, and quoted through a network such as the Internet.
On the Internet, a large amount (infinite number) of information, so-called content, is provided / published by an information processing device functioning as a content site (WEB site), and can be arbitrarily accessed via a terminal / device connected to the Internet. Various contents can be browsed / referenced by accessing the contents.

Here, in order to obtain desired information from countless contents on the Internet, a content site called a search engine site is generally used.
However, the search result of the information obtained on the search engine site is simply output / displayed in a list format such as the title of the content including the search keyword or a part of the text. For this reason, in order to refer to the contents of individual contents, titles linked to URLs (Uniform Resource Locators) that identify resources on the Internet of each content site displayed in a list format as search results, It is necessary to select (click) the summaries one by one and access the corresponding content site, which is cumbersome to operate and work.

In addition, when quoting information such as texts and images published on each content site to create materials used for meetings, presentations, etc., the content is provided after accessing each content site. It is necessary to select and quote individual texts and images. For this reason, particularly when a large amount of search results are extracted, it is extremely complicated and requires a heavy load to create useful materials.
For this reason, there has been a demand for a technique capable of browsing and referring to the contents of a plurality of contents easily and efficiently in the Internet search and quoting the contents of the contents as necessary.

Here, for the purpose of facilitating browsing and reference of information in the Internet search and improving convenience, techniques as disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2, for example, have been proposed so far.
Patent Document 1 discloses a technique of collecting browsing history information on the Internet for each user, generating a summary of browsing history, and transmitting it to the user terminal of the user.
In Patent Document 2, a URL for each content that is a search result extracted by a search engine is accessed, and an HTML document or the like of each content is summarized into, for example, less than 10 lines of text to create a search result display layout. However, a technique for sending a mail to a user or printing it out is disclosed.

In the present embodiment, three sentences and all images included in the text data are extracted as important information (see FIG. 6).
Note that the number of sentences and images to be extracted is not particularly limited. For example, it is possible to extract only 2 or 4 sentences or only a predetermined number of images as important information. Further, if there are three or less sentences included in the body data, all sentences are extracted as important sentences, and if no image is included in the body data, no important images are extracted.

The important information extraction unit 14 can extract important information not only in Japanese but also in other languages, for example, foreign languages such as English (see FIG. 8A).
In addition, important sentences extracted and generated in a foreign language can be translated into Japanese (see FIG. 8B).
The translation of a foreign language into Japanese can be realized by using a translation function provided on the Internet, for example.

Here, the important information extraction processing by the important information extraction unit 14 is executed by using an existing important sentence extraction processing technique.
For example, text included in body data is analyzed by morphological analysis, broken down into phrases containing punctuation marks, divided and extracted into sentence units, and based on the appearance frequency, position, similarity, etc. of specific words and keywords in each sentence Thus, a feature vector is assigned to each sentence, and a plurality of sentences (for example, three sentences) to which feature vectors in different directions (for example, three directions) are assigned can be extracted as important sentences.
In addition, it is possible to estimate the image arranged at the closest position or the image with the largest data capacity as the main image of the content with respect to the plurality of extracted important sentence sentences. Can be extracted.

“Important sentence extraction” is an existing technique for extracting a sentence having important information from a document, and the above-described method is an example of an existing important sentence extraction processing technique. In the present embodiment, the processing by the important information extraction unit 14 can be executed using any important sentence extraction processing technique.

Here, presentation software (presentation software) is software (application) for displaying information in a slide format, and includes a function for editing and arranging character information, a function for editing and arranging image information, and a slide show. For example, a “PowerPoint” (registered trademark) manufactured by Microsoft Corporation is known.
This kind of presentation software can generate and output arbitrary information as slide-format file information, and can output multiple slide-format information in a list format. Because it is easy to see, understand, and easy to use, it is widely used as a reference material for meetings, meetings, lectures, classes, and briefings.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the summary information generated by the summary information generation unit 15 is generated using presentation software, so that the content information corresponding to the search result is converted into a slide format or list format in units of content sites. It can be generated and output as file information, can be used as browsing and reference materials, and can be used as it is for presentation materials such as meetings and lectures.
Specifically, in this embodiment, summary information composed of a file of two slide pages is generated for each content site, and the first page is extracted as the “title” of the content and important information. In addition, an important sentence and an important image in the “text” and the URL of the content site (quoting source) are arranged (pasted) in a predetermined layout and displayed as a “summary page”. Is generated as a “full-text page” displayed by arranging (pasting) all the text data included in “” (see FIG. 6).

By making the summary information in the slide format of two pages and one file for each content site, the summary page of the first page can be grasped and understood by the summary page of the first page. The full text page of the eyes allows you to check the detailed content, etc., and also allows access to the content site itself, which is the citation source, as needed, providing it as useful summary information It becomes like this.
Furthermore, as described above, it is possible to generate the data in the slide format generated in the two-page one file for each content site as a list format information of all the data of the plurality of content sites (see FIG. 7). This makes it possible to select a desired content site from a list of a plurality of content sites and to refer to the summary information described above or to access the content site itself, which is more convenient. It is possible to provide highly reliable information.

Note that the generation of the summary information in the slide format of two pages and one file as described above is merely an example, and it is of course possible to generate the summary information in other forms and formats.
The presentation software used to generate summary information may be any existing software that can be used, and is not limited to specific presentation software.
Furthermore, not only the presentation software but also any information that can be generated and output as summary information according to the present embodiment, for example, document creation software (word processing software), spreadsheet software (spreadsheet software), drawing creation, for example. Software for other uses / functions such as software (drawing software) can also be used.

The summary information transmission unit 16 is a unit that transmits one or more summary information corresponding to the content information generated by the summary information generation unit 15 to the corresponding user terminal 20, and the summary information transmission unit of the present invention. Configure.
Specifically, the summary information transmission unit 16 combines and compresses the summary information generated in the above-described presentation software file format (slide format / list format) as a single file data for transmission, and performs a search result. Is transmitted as download data to the user terminal 20 serving as the transmission source (see FIG. 5).

Here, the combining / compression processing of the transmission data by the summary information transmitting unit 16 can be realized by using an existing data compression technique such as a ZIP file compression format.

First, as a premise, a user who wants to perform an Internet search operates the user terminal 20 to access a search engine site provided by the search server 30, makes an arbitrary search request, and receives a search result.

As shown in FIG. 4, the search result transmitted from the search engine site includes, for example, the content site title including the search keyword (“artificial intelligence”), an excerpt of the content, and the URL of each content site. Yes. In the WEB browser 21 of the user terminal 20, the URL list extraction unit 22 extracts URLs included in the search result (step 01), and generates a URL list in which a plurality of URLs are listed.
The generated URL list is transmitted to the search result summary server 10 via the Internet 100 (step 02).

In the search result summary server 10 to which the URL list is transmitted from the user terminal 20, the URL list receiving unit 11 receives the URL list, and the URL site access unit 12 receives a plurality of corresponding URLs based on the URLs indicated in the URL list. Access to each content site (content site server 40) is executed (step 03).
From each accessed content site, the content information extraction unit 13 extracts text information and image information of “title” and “body” included in the content information provided on the content site (step 04). .

Then, based on the extracted “text” data, the important information extraction unit 14 extracts important sentences and important images included in the “text” (step 05).
In this embodiment, three sentences and all images included in the body data are extracted as important sentences / important images from the text information and the image information included in the body data (see FIG. 6).
When the important sentence / important image is extracted, summary information is generated by the summary information generation unit 15 using presentation software (step 06).

Specifically, the summary information generation unit 15 generates a slide two-page file of presentation software for each content site, and on the first page, important sentences and important sentences in the “title” and “text” of the content The “summary page” in which the URL of the image / citation site (content site) is arranged (pasted) is generated on the second page, and the “full text page” in which all the text of “body” is arranged (pasted) is generated (see FIG. 6).
In addition, the summary information generation unit 15 can generate all the data of a plurality of content sites as information in a list format for the slide format data generated in a two-page 1 file for each content site (see FIG. 7). .

The generated summary information is combined and compressed by the summary information transmission unit 16 in the presentation software file format (slide format / list format) as one transmission file data, and the search result is transmitted. It is transmitted to the original user terminal 20 (step 07).
As a result, the user terminal 20 receives the transmitted download data (see FIG. 5), and decompresses / decompresses the data combined and compressed by the WEB browser 21, thereby providing a file format (slide format) of the presentation software. (Summary format) The summary information generated can be used, and the necessary summary information can be output / displayed / edited to the WEB browser 21 (step 08).

As described above, according to the search result summary system 1 including the search result summary server 10 according to the present embodiment, each content included in the search result requested from the user terminal 20 by the search result summary server 10. The contents are automatically generated as predetermined summary information including an important sentence / important image, and the summary information is output as a presentation software file and provided to be usable in the user terminal 20.
In particular, in this embodiment, summary information is generated in a slide format of two pages and one file for each content site, the summary page of the content site is provided on the first page, and the full text page of the content is provided on the second page. Thus, even if a large number of content sites are included in the search result, the contents can be easily and quickly grasped.

In addition, the summary information is generated and output in slide format for each content site by the presentation software, so that the summary information can be used as materials for browsing and referring to multiple content sites, as well as for meetings and lectures. It can also be used as a presentation material.
As a result, even when it is desired to use the result of the Internet search as a presentation material, it can be used quickly and efficiently as a material for browsing, referring to, and presenting.

While the present invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiment, it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the present invention.
For example, in the above-described embodiment, the WEB browser 21 forms the URL list extraction unit 22 (identification information extraction unit) that extracts the URL included in the search result of the search engine site and generates the URL list in the user terminal 20. The URL list is received by the search result summary server 10 (see FIG. 2).
However, as a configuration for extracting the URL included in the search result so that the search result summary server 10 can receive it, the search result summary server 10 may have a configuration / function corresponding to the URL list extraction unit 22. it can.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, the search result information generated by the search server 30 by the URL list receiving unit 11 of the search result summary server 10 is the same as the URL list extraction unit 22 of the WEB browser 21 described above. Can be functioned and configured as an identification information extraction unit according to the present invention that extracts (receives) identification information (URL) that specifies one or more pieces of content information included in the information.
In this case, as shown in FIG. 9, the user terminal 20 (WEB browser 21) transmits a search request to the search result summary server 10, and a URL list receiving unit (URL list extraction unit) of the search result summary server 10. 11 transmits the search request to the search server 30 and receives the inspection result.

Then, the URL list receiving unit 11 that has received the search result extracts the URL included in the search result, outputs it to the URL site access unit 12, and executes the same summary information generation process as in the above embodiment. Can do.
According to such a configuration, the user terminal 20 (WEB browser 21) can acquire summary information based on the search result only by transmitting an arbitrary search request to the search result summary server 10, and the user can summarize Information can be acquired more easily, and the WEB browser 21 does not need to have a function / configuration as the URL list extraction unit 22, so that versatility of the user terminal 20 (WEB browser 21) can be improved.
