Abstract
The present application discloses a method, a server and a computer readable storage medium for segmenting a search query. The server receives a query segmentation request including a search query, and the search query further includes an ordered sequence of semantic elements. Each semantic element is correlated with one or more predetermined search terms each at least including the respective semantic element. The server further modifies the search terms by replacing irrelevant semantic elements with segmentation identifiers. The modified search terms are then combined to form combined search queries each of which includes the ordered sequence of semantic elements and at least one segmentation identifier that separates the semantic elements. A specific combined search query is identified based on search probabilities of the combined search queries, and the search query is segmented according to a location of at least one segmentation identifier in the specific combined search query.
