Embodiments of the present application relate to a multilingual mixed search method, a system for multilingual mixed searching, and a computer program product for multilingual mixed searching. A multilingual mixed searching method is provided. The method includes receiving a query word entered by a user and identifying source language of the query word, translating the query word from the source language to query words of a plurality of target languages, the plurality of target languages being different than the source language, using the query word in a corresponding target language as a basis for searching an index of web page information corresponding to the corresponding target language and obtaining web page information in the corresponding target language, from the web page information obtained from the index corresponding to the corresponding target language, and translating the obtained web page information from the corresponding target language to the source language.

Multilingual mixed search method and system

The present disclosure introduces a method and an apparatus for searching images. With respect to each image in an image searching database, respective labels of respective images are generated based on description information corresponding to the respective images. A corresponding relationship between the generated respective labels and the respective images is stored. Based on a received image searching request, description information corresponding to an image for search in the image searching request is obtained. Based on the description information of the image for search, the label of the image for search is generated. Based on the stored corresponding relationship between the respective labels and the respective images, one or more images corresponding to the label of the image for search are determined. The determined one or more images are sent to the client terminal that sends the image searching request.

Image searching

Ordering search results may include obtaining an exposed log file from a log system, computing a Bayesian posterior probability for relevancy between the log file and a search request, computing an expected value of the relevancy between the log file and the search request based on the Bayesian posterior probability, storing the search request and an identifier of the log file as a key and the expected value of the relevancy between the log file and the search request as a value into a search data structure, in response to receiving a search request submitted by a user, finding expected values of relevancy between the submitted search request and log files that are relevant to the submitted search request from the search data structure, and ordering the found log files in a descending order of the expected values.
