Abstract
Methods, apparatuses and electronic devices for generating a feature vector, as well as searching methods, apparatuses and electronic devices are disclosed. The method for generating a feature vector includes: acquiring data information; extracting a semantic feature from the data information, to acquire semantic feature information; and acquiring a feature vector of the data information by using a preset function, with the semantic feature information as a parameter. The technical solution identifies picture information by recognizing semantics of image information and matching the semantics of the image information with natural language descriptions. Different from conventional image search schemes of existing search engines, this technical solution does not need to retrieve a text description of image information, but retrieves and identifies images based on the content of the image information. Therefore, results with higher accuracy may be returned compared with the existing text-based image search.
