In the drawings, like reference numbers can indicate functionally identical or similar elements. While the various aspects of the embodiments are presented in drawings, the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale unless specifically indicated.

The word "exemplary" is used exclusively herein to mean "serving as an example, embodiment, or illustration. Any embodiment described herein as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments.

Furthermore, in the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a better understanding of the present disclosure. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present disclosure may be practiced without some of these specific details. In some instances, methods, means, elements and circuits that are well known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the present disclosure.

Fig. 1 shows a flow chart of an information collection method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method may be applied to a server. As shown in fig. 1, the method may include steps S101 to S105.

In step S101, when a first request sent by a first terminal is received, a parameter related to information to be collected is determined according to the first request.

In this embodiment, the user needs to collect information through the collecting device according to specific needs. In this case, the user may send a first request to the server through the first terminal, so that the server determines parameters related to the information to be acquired according to the first request, and further generates an alternative acquisition scheme. And then, determining the acquisition scheme selected by the user according to a second request sent by the first terminal, and controlling the required acquisition device to acquire information according to the selected acquisition scheme.

In one possible implementation, the information may include at least one of: video, audio, image, and environmental parameters.

In this implementation, the environmental parameter may include environmental related parameters such as temperature, humidity, illumination intensity, ultraviolet intensity, noise intensity, concentration of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) and the like of the environment, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

In this embodiment, the first terminal may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a personal computer, or the like. The user may send the first request to the server through a client installed in the terminal or through a web page displayed by the terminal, which is not limited in this disclosure.

In this embodiment, the first request received by the server may be in the form of audio, video, picture, text, etc., and after receiving the first request, the server may identify and analyze the first request to determine parameters related to the information to be collected. For example, if the first request is audio and the content is "shoot video of sunrise in taishan mountain", the server performs audio recognition and analysis on the received audio, and determining the parameters related to the information to be collected includes: mount Taishan (acquisition area), 07: 10-08: 00 (time for acquiring information, determined according to the sunrise time of Mount Taishan at that time), sun (target object to be shot), and type of the acquired information are videos (shooting). The first request received by the server may also directly include parameters related to the information to be collected, so that the server may generate an alternative collection scheme directly from the parameters related to the information to be collected included in the first request.

By means of strong computing power of the server, the relevant parameters are generated according to the first request, so that a user does not need to master complex control skills, and can obtain an alternative acquisition scheme only by providing a requirement (the first request), so that the acquisition device is used for acquiring required information, and the operation difficulty of the user on the acquisition device is reduced.

In this embodiment, the parameters related to the information to be collected may include a collection area where information collection is performed, a collection route, a time for collecting information, a type of the information to be collected, and necessary parameters for collecting the type of information. For example, where the information comprises video, the parameters determined from the first request relating to the information that needs to be gathered may comprise: the method comprises the steps of collecting areas, collecting routes, collecting information time, and shooting video angles, shooting video definition, target objects to be shot and the like. The parameters related to the information to be collected can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

In this embodiment, the server may determine the collection-permitted area in which information collection is possible according to laws and regulations and the like. And then according to the request of the first terminal, the acquisition-allowed area is sent to the first terminal so that the first terminal can display the acquisition-allowed area to the user. The user can select the acquisition area, the acquisition route and the like according to the acquisition-allowed area displayed by the first terminal, so that the first terminal can generate the first request according to the input of the user.

In this embodiment, an alternative acquisition scheme may be generated based on parameters related to information to be acquired, in combination with a use condition of a required acquisition device, a weather condition, and the like, so that the generated alternative acquisition scheme can better meet the requirements of a user.

In step S102, an alternative acquisition scheme is generated according to parameters related to the information to be acquired.

In one possible implementation, the alternative acquisition scheme may include at least one of: the information acquisition system comprises an acquisition device required for acquiring information, the cost of alternative acquisition schemes, relevant information of the acquisition device, historical acquisition information of the acquisition device, and control parameters for controlling the acquisition device to acquire information.

In this implementation manner, the server may determine the cost corresponding to the alternative acquisition scheme according to information related to the alternative acquisition scheme, such as an acquisition device required to acquire information, a duration required to perform information acquisition, and a control parameter for controlling the acquisition device to perform information acquisition. For example, if the acquisition device required by a certain alternative acquisition scheme is the acquisition device number 001 and the time length for acquiring information is 1 hour, the cost for controlling the operation of the acquisition device number 001 for 1 hour is determined and taken as the cost of the alternative acquisition scheme. The better the function and performance of the acquisition device required by the alternative acquisition scheme is, the higher the cost of the alternative acquisition scheme can be; the longer the time required for information acquisition is, the higher the cost of the alternative acquisition scheme can be; the more content the control parameters contain, the more complex, the higher the cost of the alternative acquisition scheme can be. The calculation of the cost can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

In this implementation manner, the control parameters may include parameters for controlling the acquisition device to move, such as an acquisition area, a movement route of the acquisition device, a movement speed, a movement duration, and an acquisition height, and the control parameters may further include a type of information to be acquired, necessary parameters required for acquiring the type of information, and the like. For example, where the information comprises video, the control parameters in the alternative acquisition scheme may comprise: the system comprises a collecting area, a movement route of a collecting device, a movement speed, a movement duration and a collecting height, and necessary parameters required by the shot video, such as a shooting angle, the definition of the shot video and the like. In the case where the information includes an image, the control parameters may further include necessary parameters such as a photographing angle, image sharpness, and the like. The content required to be included in the control parameter can be set by a person skilled in the art according to actual needs, and the disclosure does not limit this.

In this implementation, the information related to the acquisition device may include a specific area where the acquisition device is prearranged, for example, an acquisition-allowed area where information acquisition may be performed. The related information of the acquisition device may further include an identifier of the acquisition device, a deployment location, and parameters related to performance and function of the acquisition device, a use state, factory information, and the like related to the acquisition device. In one exemplary application scenario, each acquisition device may be deployed in advance in each allowed acquisition area, and the acquisition devices may communicate with the server to synchronize respective related information to the server. The server can also send control instructions to the acquisition device to control the acquisition device.

In this implementation, the historical acquisition information of the acquisition device may be information acquired by the acquisition device prior to receiving the first request. Therefore, the user can select the historical acquisition information of the acquisition device and select the historical acquisition information of the acquisition device meeting the requirement for viewing.

In one possible implementation, the acquisition device required to acquire the information may include a drone.

In this implementation, the acquisition device required to acquire information may be a device capable of motion and information acquisition under remote control. For example, a remote control car that can perform motion and information collection on the ground, a device that can perform motion and information collection in water, etc., and the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

In this embodiment, the server may generate alternative acquisition schemes based on the relevant information of the acquisition device according to the determined parameter related to the information to be acquired, so that each alternative acquisition scheme can meet the information acquisition requirement of the user.

For example, if the server determines that the acquisition area is the mountain tai, the acquisition object is the sun, the time is 07: 10-08: 00, and the acquisition type is a video, the server can select acquisition devices which are available in the time period of 07: 10-08: 00, meet the shooting sunrise requirement in acquisition height from acquisition devices arranged in the area near the mountain tai, and have a shooting function, and an acquisition route is designed based on the positions of the acquisition devices to form a plurality of alternative acquisition schemes for the user to select.

For another example, if the parameters related to the information to be collected include the collection routes, for example, the collection route 1 "flies from the place a to the place B" and the collection route 2 "flies from the place a to the place C", since there are two different directions for collecting information from the place a, two corresponding collection devices may be selected as the collection devices required by the alternative collection schemes, so as to collect information of the two collection routes respectively.

The skilled person can set the manner of determining the alternative acquisition schemes according to actual needs, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

In this embodiment, the collecting device may be installed with a device required for collecting information. For example, a video shooting device is installed on the capturing device so that the capturing device can shoot a video. The acquisition device is provided with a humidity acquisition device and other devices capable of acquiring environmental parameters, so that the acquisition device can acquire the environmental parameters. The server may determine the acquisition means required to acquire the information according to parameters associated with the information that needs to be acquired. For example, when it is determined that the information that the user needs to collect is audio according to the parameter related to the information that needs to be collected, the collecting device on which the audio recording device is installed is selected as the collecting device needed for collecting the information. When the information required to be collected by the user is determined to be the relative humidity of the environment according to the parameters related to the information required to be collected, the collection device provided with the humidity collection device is selected as the collection device required for collecting the information.

The server may further provide the above information related to the acquisition device to the first terminal, so that the user may select an acquisition scheme from the alternative acquisition schemes in combination with the information related to the acquisition device. The related parameters of the collecting device can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs, and the disclosure does not limit this.

In step S103, an alternative acquisition scenario is sent to the first terminal.

In this embodiment, the generated alternative acquisition scheme is sent to the first terminal, so that the first terminal displays the alternative acquisition scheme for the user, and a second request is generated according to the acquisition scheme selected by the user and meeting the requirement of the user.

In this embodiment, the generated alternative acquisition schemes may be one or more schemes for acquiring information. The alternative acquisition scheme is generated according to the first request, and different alternative acquisition schemes can meet the requirements of the user. For example, if the parameters related to the information to be acquired, which are determined according to the first request sent by the first terminal, include: kk park, video. The server may generate a number of different alternatives, such as alternative acquisition 4, alternative acquisition 5, and alternative acquisition 6, for the first request from "kk park, video". The server sends the generated three alternative acquisition schemes 4, 5 and 6 to the first terminal, so that the first terminal is displayed for the user, and further determines the acquisition scheme selected by the user according to the input of the user to generate a second request.

In step S104, upon receiving a second request from the first terminal, the acquisition scheme selected from the alternative acquisition schemes is determined according to the second request.

In this embodiment, the second request received by the server may include the selected acquisition scheme, so that the server may directly determine the acquisition scheme selected by the user.

In a possible implementation manner, the second request received by the server may also be in the form of audio, video, pictures, text, etc., and the server may identify and analyze the second request after receiving it, and determine the acquisition scheme selected by the user from the alternative acquisition schemes. For example, if the second request is audio "select second alternative capture scheme," the server may perform audio recognition on the received audio to determine that the selected capture scheme is the second alternative capture scheme.

In step S105, information acquisition is performed according to the selected acquisition scheme, and acquired information is acquired.

In this embodiment, the server may generate a control instruction for the acquisition device according to the acquisition device required in the selected acquisition scheme and the control parameter for controlling the acquisition device. For example, a motion control command (including a motion route, a motion time, and the like) for controlling the motion of the acquisition device, and an acquisition control command (for example, a rotation angle, on or off, and the like) for controlling the device for acquiring information mounted on the acquisition device to perform an information acquisition operation. And then, controlling the acquisition device to acquire motion and information according to the control instruction. Therefore, the requirements of the user on the control capability of the acquisition device are reduced, and the operation of the user is facilitated.

In this embodiment, the acquisition device may be controlled to transmit the acquired information to the server in real time during the process of acquiring the information. And the acquisition device can be controlled to transmit all the acquired information to the server after the acquisition of all the information is finished. Or the server can acquire all the information acquired by the acquisition device in real time or after the acquisition device finishes all the information acquisition according to the requirement. The manner of obtaining the collected information can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

In this embodiment, the server may send the acquired information acquired by the acquisition device in real time to the first terminal, so that the first terminal displays the information acquired in real time for the user. Therefore, the user can inquire the information acquired by the acquisition device in real time, and the user can adjust the information acquisition process according to the specific needs of the user and the displayed information acquired in real time. For example, the route of information collection is changed, the collection area of information is changed, and the like. And sending a corresponding first request, so that the server generates a corresponding alternative acquisition scheme according to the adjusted first request for selection by the user.

In this embodiment, the server may provide the information acquired by the acquisition device as a material to other users for direct use by the other users, so that the users can quickly acquire the required material, thereby saving the time of the users. For example, the shot video 1 is provided for the user 2, so that the user 2 can directly acquire the video 1 without shooting the video again, and the time of the user 2 is saved.

In this embodiment, if the user determines that the alternative acquisition scheme generated by the server displayed by the first terminal according to the first request does not satisfy the requirement, the user may send a new first request through the first terminal to obtain the acquisition scheme satisfying the requirement. For example, the user determines that the alternative acquisition schemes generated by the server according to the first request a do not meet the requirement, and may send the first request B through the first terminal to select an acquisition scheme from the alternative acquisition schemes generated by the server according to the first request B. In this way, the user may issue one or more first requests through the first terminal to finally select an acquisition scheme that meets the requirements.

In this embodiment, the user may also adjust the acquisition scheme in real time as needed in the process that the server controls the acquisition device to acquire information according to the selected acquisition scheme, send a new first request for adjusting the acquisition scheme through the first terminal, select a new acquisition scheme from the new alternative acquisition schemes sent by the server, and send a new second request through the first terminal. And the server acquires information according to the new acquisition scheme under the condition that the new acquisition scheme selected by the user is determined according to the new second request. Meanwhile, the server can send out whether to stop the currently executed acquisition scheme or not under the condition of determining the new acquisition scheme selected by the user, and remind the user of the cost required to be paid for stopping the currently executed acquisition scheme.

For example, in the process of acquiring information by the server according to the selected acquisition scheme 8, if a new first request C sent by the user through the first terminal is received, a new alternative acquisition scheme is generated according to the first request C. And under the condition of receiving a second request sent by the first terminal, determining a new acquisition scheme 9 selected by the user, and acquiring information according to the acquisition scheme 9. And simultaneously, reminding the user whether to stop the ongoing acquisition scheme 8 or not, and reminding the user to stop the ongoing acquisition scheme 8 at the moment, wherein the cost is paid by the user.

The user may send the first request through the first terminal at any time as needed, which is not limited by this disclosure.

According to the information acquisition method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the alternative acquisition scheme can be generated for the user according to the requirement of the user, the required acquisition device is controlled to acquire information according to the acquisition scheme selected by the user, the acquired information can meet the requirement of the user, the operation required by the user is simple, the requirement on the operation skill of the user is low, and the manpower and material resources of the user are saved.

The relevant time information may also include the time required for the acquisition device to move from the deployed position to the acquisition area, the time at which the user can view the information acquired by the acquisition device, and the like. The server may determine the relevant time information according to the selected collection scheme, weather, and the required usage condition of the collection device, which may include whether the required collection device is being used, the power of the collection device, and the like, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

For example, the selected acquisition scheme is: the mountaintop cloud sea video is shot for 20 minutes at the mountaintop of the Mount Taishan from the current time (09: 10 on 29.01.2018). However, due to the fact that the wind speed at the mountaintop is too high in the morning, or no acquisition device for shooting mountaintop cloud sea videos exists in the period of 2018, 01, 29, 09: 10-09: 30, the finally determined time for shooting the videos is 09: 15-09: 35 in 2018, 01, 29, 15: 15 in 2018, 01, 29, 09:35 in 2018, 15: 35 in 2018, and the duration for shooting the videos is 20 minutes. And then sending the determined relevant information to the first terminal so that the first terminal can display relevant time information for the user.

In step S107, the relevant time information is transmitted to the first terminal.

In this embodiment, the server sends the relevant time information to the first terminal, so that the first terminal displays the received relevant time information for the user to view, and the user determines whether the information acquisition to be performed meets the user's own requirements. And under the condition that the user does not meet the requirements of the user, the user can control the first terminal to send out a new first request again, so that the server generates an alternative acquisition scheme which corresponds to the new first request and better meets the requirements of the user, and the user can conveniently reselect.

In one possible implementation, step S108 may include: and acquiring the state information of the acquisition devices required in the selected acquisition scheme in real time during the information acquisition of the acquisition devices required in the selected acquisition scheme.

In this embodiment, the period of time during which the acquisition means required in the selected acquisition plan performs information acquisition may be any time from the start of information acquisition to the end of information acquisition. For example, the state information of the necessary acquisition device is acquired at the time of starting the information acquisition, the state information of the necessary acquisition device is acquired at the intermediate time of the information acquisition, and the state information of the necessary acquisition device is acquired at the time of ending the information acquisition. The time for acquiring the status information in real time may be set according to the setting of the server, the selection of the user, and the like, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

In step S109, the status information is transmitted to the first terminal.

In this embodiment, after the server sends the state information to the first terminal, the first terminal displays the received state information for the user, so that the user determines the real-time situation of information acquisition performed by the acquisition device according to the state information. And the user can determine whether the ongoing information acquisition meets the self requirement of the user according to the state information, and under the condition that the ongoing information acquisition does not meet the requirement of the user, the user can control the first terminal to send out a new first request again, so that the server generates an alternative acquisition scheme which corresponds to the new first request and meets the requirement of the user, and the user can reselect conveniently.

In this embodiment, before or during information acquisition, a user may adjust an acquisition scheme according to a need of the user, that is, the user may control the first terminal to send a new first request, so that the server may generate a corresponding alternative acquisition scheme according to the new first request, which is not limited by the present disclosure.

In one possible implementation, in a case where the information includes a video, the method may further include: and carrying out structuring processing on the video to obtain the structured information of the video.

In this embodiment, the content of the video may be determined from the structured information of the video. The structured information of the video may include objects such as people, objects, vehicles, and the like appearing in the video, appearance characteristics of the objects, motion tracks of the objects, motion states of the objects, appearance time of the objects, and the like, and may further include plots, scenes, and the like of video representations. If the object is a person, the corresponding appearance characteristics may include information that can indicate the characteristics of the person, such as the sex of the person, the color of hair, the color of clothes, and the height of the person. If the object is a vehicle, the corresponding appearance characteristics may include the color of the vehicle, the model number of the vehicle, the license plate number of the vehicle, and other information representing the characteristics of the vehicle. If the object is an article, the corresponding appearance characteristics may include information that can represent characteristics of the article, such as the shape, color, and belonging category of the article. The content contained in the structured information can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

In a possible implementation manner, the performing a structuring process on the video and obtaining the structured information of the video may include:

segmenting a video to obtain a plurality of video segments of the video;

determining a label of each video clip in a plurality of video clips;

In this implementation, the video may be segmented according to the scenario of the video, and the video is divided into a plurality of video segments corresponding to different video scenarios, where each video segment may include a plurality of similar and consecutive video frames. For example, feature extraction, scene recognition, and other processing may be performed on each video frame corresponding to the video, the content of the video frame is determined, and a plurality of consecutive video frames whose difference degree of the content of the video frame is less than or equal to the set difference degree threshold are divided into the same video segment. When the difference degree of the content of each video frame of the video is less than or equal to the set difference degree threshold, the video can be directly used as a video clip without being divided. The segmentation mode of the video segment can be set by those skilled in the art according to the needs, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

In this implementation, the tags of the video segments may be determined according to the content of the video segments. The method can identify the video frame of the video clip, the audio corresponding to the video clip and the like, determine the content of the video clip and further determine the label of the video clip. The tags for each video clip can be used to represent a variety of information contained in each video clip. For example, the classification information of the content of the video clip, the scene of the video clip, the person appearing, the event occurring, the action appearing, and the like, the information related to the content of the video clip, the shooting location of the video clip, the shooting actor, and the like. The manner of determining the tags of the video segments can be set by those skilled in the art according to practical needs, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

In this implementation manner, the video segment may be identified according to the tag of the video segment, the detailed content corresponding to the tag is determined, and the detailed content corresponding to the tag is described in a text form, so as to generate the structured information of the video segment.

In one possible implementation, determining the label of each of the plurality of video segments may include:

Acquiring audio information corresponding to each video clip;

In this implementation manner, the server may obtain the audio information corresponding to each video clip, and determine the content of each video clip according to the audio information corresponding to each video clip, so as to determine the tag corresponding to each video clip. For example, the server may extract audio information corresponding to each video segment, perform Speech recognition on the audio information through an automatic Speech recognition technology asr (automatic Speech recognition), and recognize a text result corresponding to the audio information of each video segment. And then word segmentation processing can be carried out on the character result, the key words of the character result are extracted, and the key words are determined as the labels corresponding to the video clips. In this way, the determination of the tags for each video clip from the audio dimension of the video clip can be achieved. The manner of determining the tags of the video clips according to the audio information can be set by those skilled in the art according to practical needs, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

In this implementation manner, the audio information corresponding to each video clip may be acquired in a plurality of manners, for example, the server may extract the audio information of each video clip after segmenting the video and determining a plurality of video clips of the video. Or extracting the audio information of the whole video, and segmenting the audio information of the whole video according to a plurality of video segments determined by video segmentation to determine the audio information corresponding to each video segment.

In one possible implementation manner, determining a label of each of the plurality of video segments may further include:

determining a key frame image corresponding to each video clip;

and determining the corresponding label of the corresponding video clip according to the key frame image.

In this implementation, each key frame image corresponding to each video clip may be acquired, and for example, an image corresponding to a video frame at a time point such as an intermediate time point in a video clip may be used as a key frame image. Because the similarity of the content of each video frame in the video clip is high, the content of any video frame in the video clip can represent the content of the video clip, and therefore, the key frame image corresponding to the video clip can be an image of any video frame in the video clip, which is not limited in this disclosure.

In the implementation manner, the content of the key frame image can be determined by performing image recognition such as face recognition, article recognition, character recognition and the like on the key frame image, and then the label corresponding to the corresponding video clip is determined according to the determined content of the key frame image. For example, the key frame image may be subjected to face recognition and article recognition through a face recognition model and an article recognition model trained based on a neural network, and information such as a recognized face and an article is determined as a label corresponding to a corresponding video clip. Characters such as subtitles included in the key frame image can be subjected to Character recognition through an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology, word segmentation processing is performed on recognized Character results, keywords of the Character results are extracted, and the keywords are determined as labels corresponding to the video segments. In this way, the label corresponding to each video clip can be determined from the image dimension, the character dimension and the like of the video clip.

In one possible implementation manner, determining the structural information of each video segment according to the tag may include:

and inputting the key frame image and the label into a network model for processing, determining the character description corresponding to each video clip, and taking the character description as the structural information of each video clip. The network model is obtained by training the sample image, the label corresponding to the sample image and the text description of the sample image.

In this implementation, the server may input a key frame image corresponding to the video clip and a tag corresponding to the video clip determined according to the key frame image into the network model for processing, an output result of the network model may include a text description related to the content of the key frame image, and since the content of each video frame in the video clip is approximately the same, the server may determine the text description related to the content of the key frame image as the text description corresponding to the video clip and use it as the structural information of the video clip. For example, the server obtains a key frame image of a certain video clip, and the content of the key frame image is: one and the old walk dogs in the park. The server may determine a label (e.g., senior, dog, park) corresponding to the video clip according to the key frame image. The server may input the key frame image and the tag into a network model for processing, the output result of the network model may include a text description related to the content of the key frame image (for example, an elderly person wearing black clothes walks a dog in a park), and the server may determine the text description related to the content of the key frame image as the text description corresponding to the video clip. The server may use the textual description as the structured information corresponding to the video clip. In this way, the objectivity, accuracy and pertinence of the structured information can be improved, and the manpower consumption can be reduced.

In the implementation mode, the network model can be obtained according to the sample image, the label corresponding to the sample image and the text description training of the sample image. For example, a large number of sample images (e.g., a large number of pictures of a picture library) may be collected, and a label corresponding to each sample image may be determined based on the collected sample images. For example, image recognition may be performed on each sample image to determine a label corresponding to each sample image. And then, manually marking the text description of the sample image according to the sample image and the label corresponding to the sample image. And then the sample image, the label corresponding to the sample image and the character description of the artificially marked sample image can be trained to obtain the network model.

In this implementation, the sample image, the label corresponding to the sample image, and the text description of the sample image (for example, a plurality of sets of sample training sets, each set of sample training set including one sample image, the label corresponding to the sample image, and the text description of the sample image) may be input into the initial network model for processing, so as to obtain a training prediction result. Based on the training prediction and the expected prediction, a model loss for the network model may be determined. And according to the model loss, adjusting the parameter weight in the initial network model, and determining the adjusted network model. When the network model converges, the adjusted network model is determined as a final network model. The final network model can be used to determine the text description corresponding to each video clip according to the key frame images and the labels.

Therefore, the trained network model can accurately determine the text description corresponding to each video clip according to the key frame image and the label, and the accuracy and the speed of the structured information can be improved. Those skilled in the art should understand that a Network model may be obtained by training according to the sample image, the label corresponding to the sample image, and the text description of the sample image in a manner known in the related art, and the Network model may be built based on various Neural networks, for example, one or more of various Neural networks such as a Long Short-Term Memory Network (LSTM), a Deep Neural Network (DNN), and the like, as Long as the key frame image and the label can be processed to determine the text description corresponding to each video clip, which is not limited in this disclosure.

In the case where the history information is an environmental parameter, the environmental parameter may be shown in the form of a graph such as a line graph. The form of the history information can be set by those skilled in the art according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

Therefore, the user can directly acquire the historical information matched with the viewing request, and the time of the user is saved.

In this embodiment, the query request may also be the same as the first request, that is, the terminal may send the first request to the server, and when receiving the first request, the server may first determine whether there is matching history information, and when there is history information matching the first request, send the history information to the terminal, and when there is no matching history information, generate the alternative acquisition scheme according to the first request.

Application example

An application example according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is given below in conjunction with "shooting a video of a square G" as an exemplary application scenario to facilitate understanding of the flow of the information acquisition method. It is to be understood by those skilled in the art that the following application examples are for the purpose of facilitating understanding of the embodiments of the present disclosure only and are not to be construed as limiting the embodiments of the present disclosure.

Fig. 12 is a schematic diagram illustrating an application scenario of an information collecting method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 12, several controllable acquisition devices (e.g. drones) are deployed in advance in the area allowing shooting, and the drones can communicate with the server to synchronize their respective information to the server, so that the server can generate alternative acquisition schemes and receive control commands sent by the server to perform flying and shooting.

When the user walks on the square G (assuming that the square G belongs to the collection-permitted area), the square G suddenly snows, and the user wants to take a snow-scene video of the square G at that time. Parameters related to the snow scene of the square G at that time, for example, the square G, the snow scene, and the video, may be input through the mobile phone. The mobile phone generates a first request according to the parameters input by the user and related to the snow scene of the square G at the time, and sends the first request to the server.

The server determines parameters related to the information to be acquired according to the first request and generates corresponding alternative acquisition schemes, such as alternative acquisition scheme 1, alternative acquisition scheme 2 and alternative acquisition scheme 3. Each alternative acquisition scheme may include a required drone, a time required for information acquisition, a flight route of the drone, and the like.

Alternative acquisition scheme 1: the required drone is drone No. 002. No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle's relevant information can shoot the video that the definition is 1080p for No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle. The time required for video shooting was 15 minutes. The required cost is the first cost. The control parameters for controlling No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle to carry out video shooting include: the first flight route, for example, starts from the south gate of the square G, flies along the main road of the square G, and ends after reaching the north gate of the square G.

Alternative acquisition scheme 2: the required drone is drone No. 002. No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle's relevant information can shoot the video that the definition is 1080p for No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle. The time required for video shooting was 15 minutes. The required cost is the second cost. The control parameters for controlling No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle to carry out video shooting include: the second flight path, for example, starts from the south main gate of the square G, flies along the main road of the square G, and ends after reaching the west gate of the square G.

Alternative acquisition scheme 3: the required drone is No. 004 drone. No. 004 unmanned aerial vehicle's relevant information can shoot the video that the definition is 720p for No. 004 unmanned aerial vehicle. The time required for video shooting was 15 minutes. The required cost is the third cost. Control No. 004 unmanned aerial vehicle carries out the control parameter that video was shot and includes: the first flight route, for example, starts from the south gate of the square G, flies along the main road of the square G, and ends after reaching the north gate of the square G.

The mobile phone shows an alternative acquisition scheme 1, an alternative acquisition scheme 2 and an alternative acquisition scheme 3 which are sent by the server for the user. And determines the acquisition scheme selected by the user based on the user input, e.g., the user determines alternative acquisition scheme 1 as the selected acquisition scheme, and generates a second request based thereon.

After receiving a second request sent by the mobile phone, the server controls No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle to fly along the main road of the square G from the south side main gate of the square G according to the acquisition scheme (alternative acquisition scheme 1) selected in the second request until the No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle reaches the north side gate of the square G, and controls the video shooting device on the No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle to shoot videos for the user during the flight of the No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle. Then the server acquires the video shot by the No. 002 unmanned aerial vehicle, performs structuring processing on the video, and acquires the structuring information of the video (refer to the relevant description in the process of structuring processing on the video). Analyzing the structural information of the video, extracting the video segments needing to be shielded in the video, and shielding the video segments needing to be shielded to obtain the shielded video. And then uploading the shielded video and the structural information thereof to a cloud server, and after the uploading is finished, sending a viewing prompt to the mobile phone to remind a user to view the shielded video and the structural information thereof stored in the cloud server.

The mobile phone displays options for obtaining the shielded video and the structural information of the shielded video for the user after receiving the viewing prompt, obtains the shielded video and plays the shielded video for the user under the condition that the triggering operation such as clicking of the user is detected, and displays the structural information of the shielded video in the process of playing the shielded video for the user.

Therefore, the user can acquire the video and the structural information of the square G only by simple operation, the user does not need to shoot the video by himself or buy an unmanned aerial vehicle, and the time and the economic cost of the user are saved.
