SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING LOCATION-SENSITIVE AUTO-COMPLETE QUERY
Provided is a system and method for providing a location-sensitive auto-complete query. The system includes at least one processor; a memory to store at least one program configured to be executed by the at least one processor; a keyword generating unit to generate a keyword based on the query inputted from a user terminal and location information received from the user terminal; and a query providing unit to provide an auto-complete query corresponding to the generated keyword among the auto-complete queries indexed according to location information.
1 . A system for providing an auto-complete query for a query inputted by a user, the system comprising:
at least one processor;
a memory to store at least one program configured to be executed by the at least one processor;
a keyword generating unit to generate a keyword based on the query inputted from a user terminal and location information received from the user terminal; and
a query providing unit to provide an auto-complete query corresponding to the generated keyword among the auto-complete queries indexed according to location information.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the location information received from the terminal comprises at least one of a browser information, an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the user terminal, and input information.
3 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a query indexing unit to index auto-complete queries by incorporating the location information into the auto-complete queries.
4 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the query indexing unit is configured to index the auto-complete queries by incorporating the location information into the auto-complete queries using at least one of the queries collected by region and information about a content including the location information.
5 . The system of claim 3 , wherein the query indexing unit is configured to incorporate each corresponding region code to the auto-complete queries and index the auto-complete queries having the incorporated region codes based on priority.
6 . The system of claim 5 , wherein the keyword generating unit is configured to generate the keyword by incorporating a region code corresponding to the location information into the inputted query.
7 . The system of claim 5 , wherein the query providing unit is configured to provide the auto-complete query corresponding to the generated keyword among the indexed auto-complete queries based on the priority.
8 . A method for providing an auto-complete query for a query inputted by a user, the method being performed by at least one processor, the method comprising:
generating a keyword by the at least one processor based on the query inputted from a user terminal and location information received from the user terminal; and
providing an auto-complete query corresponding to the generated keyword among the auto-complete queries indexed according to location information.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the location information received from the terminal comprises at least one of a browser information, an Internet Protocol (IP) address of the user terminal, and input information.
10 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
indexing the auto-complete queries by incorporating the location information into the auto-complete queries.
11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the indexing comprises:
indexing the auto-complete queries by incorporating the location information into the auto-complete queries using at least one of the queries collected by region and information about a content including the location information.
12 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the indexing comprises:
incorporating each corresponding region code into the auto-complete queries; and
indexing the auto-complete queries having the incorporated region codes based on priority.
13 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the generating comprises incorporating a region code corresponding to the location information into the inputted query to generate the keyword.
14 . The method of claim 12 , wherein the providing comprises providing the auto-complete query corresponding to the generated keyword among the indexed auto-complete queries based on the priority.
15 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions for controlling to provide an auto-complete query for a query inputted by a user, the instructions being executed by a method including:
generating a keyword based on the query inputted from a user terminal and location information received from the user terminal; and
providing an auto-complete query corresponding to the generated keyword among the auto-complete queries indexed according to location information.
