20080208857 | PROCESSING, BROWSING AND EXTRACTING INFORMATION FROM AN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT - The present invention relates to methods, apparatus and systems for processing an electronic document and its corresponding device. It provides methods for browsing an electronic document and its corresponding browser, and methods for extracting information segments from an electronic document and its corresponding system for the same. An example of a method for processing an electronic document comprises extracting one or more information segments of the domains to which the electronic document relates from the electronic document being written by an author, and correspondingly storing said extracted information segments with said document. Wherein one or more information extraction patterns are used to extract information segments of different domains to which the electronic document relates from said document. And the extracted information segments are verified by the writer so as to ensure its correctness, reliability and readability. | 08-28-2008 |
20080295037 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING 3D CAROUSEL TREE DATA VISUALIZATION AND RELATED DEVICE - A method for generating 3D carousel visualization of large-scale tree data, which comprises the steps of: receiving a user's selection of a node in the carousel; according to the radius of a sub-carousel corresponding to the user-selected node and the radius of a carousel at which the selected node is located, judging whether or not the sub-carousel can be expanded at the carousel at which the selected node is located; expanding the sub-carousel at the carousel at which the selected node is located, if it is determined that the sub-carousel can be expanded at the carousel at which the selected node is located. A device capable of implementing the method is provided. The number of carousel levels visualized on a visualization device can be adjusted dynamically, and the visualization of a focus becomes more prominent, and relationships between nodes at each level of the tree data visualization get more apparent. | 11-27-2008 |
20080307369 | METHOD, INTERACTION METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VISUALIZING HIERARCHY DATA WITH ANGULAR CHART - A method and apparatus for visualizing hierarchy data with angular chart are provided wherein the hierarchy data comprises a plurality of levels. The method comprises determining at least one of the plurality levels of the hierarchy data as base levels; visualizing data units in the base levels with the angular chart, wherein each slice of the angular chart corresponds to the data unit in the hierarchy data; and in response to user's operation on the slice of the angular chart, visualizing data units in at least next level of the data unit corresponding to the selected slice. The data units in each level of the hierarchy data can be visualized hierarchically and clearly, even if the hierarchy data has numerous levels and/or data units. | 12-11-2008 |
20090024610 | COMPUTER AIDED AUTHORING, ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT BROWSING, RETRIEVING, AND SUBSCRIBING AND PUBLISHING - Provides methods, apparatus, and systems for computer aided authoring. Included are: a method for browsing an electronic document, an apparatus for aided authoring, an electronic document browser, a method for retrieving an electronic document, a system for retrieving electronic documents, a method for subscribing and publishing an electronic document as well as a system for subscribing and publishing electronic documents.

20090307217 | Method, Device and System for Processing, Browsing and Searching an Electronic Documents - A method for processing electronic document and its corresponding device, a method for browsing electronic document and its corresponding browser, as well as a method for searching electronic document and its corresponding searching system are disclosed in the present invention. The method comprises at least the following steps of: generating one or more query according to the content of said document when an author is composing the electronic document; and correspondingly storing information about said one or more query with said electronic document. Wherein the query comprises keywords, keyword string or questions, and the query has passed the verification in order to ensure its reliability. | 12-10-2009 |
20100114996 | Apparatus and Method for Transmitting File and Apparatus and Method for Receiving File - Apparatus and method for transmitting file and apparatus and method for receiving file. The apparatus for receiving a file includes: a receiving device configured for receiving a file and at least one tag path associated with the file; a path selection device configured for selecting from candidate paths at least one path where a similarity between the tag vector of the lowest node and the tag vector of the highest node in each of the tag path exceeds a predetermined threshold, as a storage path; and a storage device configured for storing the file under the storage path. | 05-06-2010 |
20100277481 | METHOD AND APPARATUS OF ANIMATION PLANNING FOR A DYNAMIC GRAPH - A method and apparatus of animation planning for a dynamic graph is provided. A first method includes grouping changed nodes into atomic partitions according to the relationships between the changed nodes and existing nodes. The next step is clustering the atomic partitions according to clustering distances between the atomic partitions to generate a running list for planning animation of node changes in the dynamic graph. The running list includes elements selected from the group consisting of clusters of atomic partitions and atomic partitions. The present invention is able to plan a multi-stage animation demonstration of changes of a dynamic graph and has a improved readability and animation speed. | 11-04-2010 |
20120233189 | TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING A FILE IN A NETWORK ENVIRONMENT - A method of receiving a file including receiving a file and receiving at least one tag path associated with the file. The tag path has a lowest node and a highest node and each the node having a tag vector. The method also includes selecting at least one storage path for which a similarity between the tag vector of the lowest node and the tag vector of the highest node exceeds a predetermined threshold and storing the file under the storage path. | 09-13-2012 |
