This application is based upon and claims priority to and benefits of Chinese Patent Application Serial No. 202010227289.6, filed the State Intellectual Property Office of P. R. China on Mar. 27, 2020, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference.
The disclosure relates to a field of data processing technologies in a field of computer technologies, and particularly relates to a method for processing identity information, an electronic device, and a storage medium.
With the rapid development of science and technology, transportation and communication ways become more and more developed, and connection between people gets closer. Internet, Internet of things, Internet of vehicles and so on go deep into every aspect of people's lives. From online to offline, from a computer device to a mobile phone, from a home smart device to a functional device such as an automobile, the user produces a lot of behaviors in these devices. In addition, these devices have a large number of relationships with other media. Therefore, how to accurately recognize and mine a relationship between two devices, multiple devices, or multiple cross-media identities becomes more and more complicated. A cross-media identity includes a virtual identity (such as network connection information, and virtual account information) and a real identity (such as identity card number information, vehicle information, and face information).
In the related art, a method for merging the cross-media identities mainly includes a way of directly using a static relationship bridging and a mining way based on a rule or a strategy. The way of directly using the static relationship bridging refers to using a unique identity (ID) for bridging to associate user behaviors. The mining way based on a rule or a strategy is mainly to find different identity dimension features of related users based on the user behaviors.
The disclosure provides a method for processing identity information, an electronic device, and a storage medium.
Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method for processing identity information. The method includes: obtaining first association relationships between identities and entity objects from a plurality of information sources; establishing a relationship graph corresponding to each information source based on at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source; generating a virtual node associated with at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs based on a space-time distance between respective entity objects; and determining a second association relationship between identities involved in different relationship graphs based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node.
Embodiments of the disclosure provides an electronic device. The electronic device includes: at least one processor and a memory. The memory is communicatively coupled to the at least one processor. The memory has instructions executable by the at least one processor stored thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to implement the method for processing the identity information according to the above embodiments.
Embodiments of the disclosure provides a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer instructions stored thereon. The computer instructions are configured to cause a computer to execute the method for processing the identity information according to the above embodiments.
It should be understood that, contents described in the Summary is not intended to identify key or important features of embodiments of the disclosure, nor is it intended to limit the scope of the disclosure. Other features of the disclosure may become apparent from the following description.
The accompanying drawings are used for better understanding the solution and do not constitute a limitation of the disclosure.
Description will be made below to exemplary embodiments of the disclosure with reference to accompanying drawings, which includes various details of embodiments of the disclosure to facilitate understanding and should be regarded as merely examples. Therefore, it should be recognized by the skilled in the art that various changes and modifications may be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the disclosure. Meanwhile, for clarity and conciseness, descriptions for well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description.
In the related art, a method of directly using a static relationship bridging to merge cross-media identities requires that all identities have direct or indirect association relationships, and the association relationship is a connected graph. Therefore, there is a problem that a usage scene is limited.
When merging cross-media identities is performed by using a mining method based on a rule or a strategy, the mining method based on a rule is similar to the method of using the static relationship bridging, which has a great limitation. The mining method based on a strategy needs a large number of labeled samples for machine learning or feature mining. However, such large number of real samples do not exist in a real business scene, so the accuracy of machine learning is low. Therefore, the existing method for merging the cross-media identities has disadvantages of limited usage scenes and low accuracy of identity merging.
For the technical problems existing in the related technologies for identity merging, the disclosure provides a method for processing identity information. First association relationships between identities and entity objects are obtained from multiple information sources. A relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source. A virtual node associated with at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on a space-time distance between respective entity objects. A second association relationship between identities involved in different relationship graphs is determined based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node.
Description will be made below to a method and an apparatus for processing identity information, an electronic device, and a storage medium with reference to accompanying drawings.
Embodiments of the disclosure take that the method for processing the identity information is configured in an apparatus for processing identity information as an example for description. The apparatus for processing identity information may be applied to any electronic device, such that the electronic device may execute a function for processing the identity information.
The electronic device may be a personal computer (PC), a cloud device or a mobile device. The mobile device may be a hardware device having various operating systems, such as a mobile phone, a tablet, a personal digital assistant, a wearable device, or a vehicle-mounted device.
As illustrated in
At block S101, first association relationships between identities and entity objects are obtained from multiple information sources.
The information source who transmits information through a certain material is a birthplace/source of information. For example, the information source may be a financial information platform, a traffic information platform, a video information platform, and so on. It may be understood that each information source is similar to a database for storing a type of information. For example, the traffic information platform, taken as an information source, may store all information collected by a camera on a traffic road.
An entity object refers to an entity which obtains identity information, such as a base station, and a camera.
In embodiments of the disclosure, an identity obtained from the multiple information sources includes a virtual identity (such as network connection information, virtual account information, etc.) and a real identity (such as identity card number information, vehicle information, face information, etc.)
As an example, as illustrated in
It should be noted that, cross-media identity information in
It should be explained that, varied data may be obtained from the multiple information sources in the real social scene. The data may include structured data, unstructured data, semi-structured data, and may also include various multi-modal data such as a text, a video, an audio, and an image. In order to build a unified and generalizable system for mining and analyzing a large-scale dynamic relationship, the data obtained from the multiple information sources may be abstracted to determine the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects.
As a possible implementation, the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects in the multiple information sources may be constructed in a point-and-edge way. A point represents an identity identifier of a user, or represents other information node associated with the user. An edge represents a direct relationship between the user and other node.
As an example, when corresponding information of a mobile phone is recorded by a certain base station, a group of point-edge relationships (V1: a mobile phone IMEI (international mobile equipment identity), V2: a base station; E: the mobile phone connecting with the base station [time points, frequencies]) may be recorded. An IMEI is an abbreviation of an international mobile equipment identity. Alternatively, when a certain account transfers money to another account, a group of point-edge relationships (V: an account A, V2: an account B; E: attribute-related information of transferring the money [a time point, a transfer amount, transfer login information]) may also be recorded.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects obtained from the multiple information sources include a one-to-one relationship, a one-to-many relationship and a many-to-many relationship. For example, one user merely has one identity card number. One user may have multiple mobile phone numbers. One person may be father of multiple persons or a son of his parents.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, there may be a variety of first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects obtained from the multiple information sources. The first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects obtained from different information sources may not belong to the same type of association relationship. For example, the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects may include a social association relationship, an account association relationship, a behavioral association relationship, a virtual social association relationship, an identity association relationship, and so on.
It should be explained that, the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects may be obtained from the multiple information sources in the disclosure. For example, data obtained from a public security business platform may restore information of a criminal suspect. A trajectory of a passenger may be restored after data is obtained from a traffic information platform. Therefore, an application scene of the method for processing the identity information proposed in the disclosure is not limited, and may be applied to any business scene.
At block S102, a relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source.
The relationship graph refers to a graph for describing all identity relationships in the information sources.
In embodiments of the disclosure, after the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects are obtained from the multiple information sources, there are a variety of first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects obtained from different information sources. For example, the first association relationship may be an association relationship between persons, an association relationship between a things, and an association relationship between a person and a thing. In addition, the association relationships between identities and entity objects obtained from respective information sources may not belong to the same type of association relationship. Therefore, the relationship graph of one information source may be established based on the first association relationships obtained from the corresponding information source.
In embodiments of the disclosure, after the first association relationships are obtained from a same information source, all the first association relationships obtained from the same information source are taken as a same graph layer to establish a relationship graph of the corresponding information source.
For example, holographic identity-related information left by a user is of various types, including information of a mobile phone (operator-related information) recorded by a base station, and Internet information (positioning information of an application (APP) on the mobile) left by the APP on the mobile phone. Further. IMSI (international mobile subscriber identity) and information of the mobile phone recorded and scanned by a check point and an electric fence may also be included. In addition, face information captured by a camera and identity card information of the user swiped at a sampling check point may also be included. In addition, vehicle information recorded by a camera at an intersection and a RFID code of an electromobile scanned at a check point may also be included.
In this case, a relationship graph may be constructed based on association relationships related to a mobile phone in the same information source. Another relationship graph may be constructed based on association relationships related to a biological feature. A relationship graph is separately constructed based on association relationships related to a vehicle. A relationship graph is constructed based on association relationships related to an account number. In this way, all the relationships in different relationship graphs may be fully merged, avoiding subsequent break of a key evidence chain due to lack of information, and a failure to obtain an abnormal analysis result.
As an example, referring to
At block S103, a virtual node associated with at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on a space-time distance between respective entity objects.
The space-time distance refers to a time distance and a space distance. The virtual node refers to a fictitious node rather than a node actually exists in the relationship graph.
It may be understood that, after the relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on the at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source, the relationship graphs corresponding to multiple information sources may be correlated into a connected graph when there is a same node in the multiple relationship graphs.
However, after the relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on the at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source, there may be no common node in the multiple relationship graphs. In this case, the multiple relationship graphs cannot form a connected graph. Therefore, the virtual node may be constructed for associating different relationship graphs to form the connected graph.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, when a space-time distance between the entity objects for collecting the identity information is small, it may be considered that the identities collected by the entity objects are the same user identity. In this case, the virtual node associated with respective entity objects in different relationship graphs may be generated based on the space-time distance between respective entity objects.
For example, a camera check point captures license plate information and establishes a corresponding relationship graph, while a face check point captures face information and establishes a corresponding relationship graph. Since there is no common node between the two relationship graphs, a connected graph may not be formed. In this case, a virtual node associated with the camera check point and the face check point in the two relational graphs may be generated based on a time-space distance between the camera check point and the face check point when respectively collecting information.
At block S104, a second association relationship between identities involved in different relationship graphs is determined based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node.
In this embodiment, when there is no common node in the relationship graphs corresponding to multiple information sources, the second association relationship between the identities may be determined based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node after the virtual node associated with the at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on the space-time distance between respective entity objects.
Continue with the example illustrated at block S103, after the virtual node associated with the camera check point and the face check point in the two relationship graphs is generated based on the time-space distance corresponding to the camera check point and the face check point when the information is collected, the second association relationship between the identities involved in different relationship graphs may be determined based on the two relationship graphs associated with the generated virtual node. For example, the license plate information captured by the camera check point and the face information captured by the face check point may belong to the identity information of one user, so the license plate information may be associated with the face information.
With the method for processing the identity information according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects are obtained from the multiple information sources. The relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on the at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source. The virtual node associated with the at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on the space-time distance between respective entity objects. The second association relationship between the identities involved in different relationship graphs is determined based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node. In this way, the relationship graphs corresponding to respective information sources are associated by the virtual node, so that the identities involved in different relationship graphs may be associated, which not only improves the accuracy of merging the identities, but also may be applied to any scene, thereby avoiding the problem of limited application range of the existing method for merging the identities.
On the basis of the above embodiments, the disclosure provides another method for processing identity information. Detailed implementation may refer to Embodiment two.
As illustrated in
At block S201, first association relationships between identities and entity objects are obtained from multiple information sources.
At block S202, a relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source.
In embodiments of the disclosure, the implementation at blocks S201 and S202 may refer to the implementation at blocks S101 and S102, which is not elaborated here.
At block S203, for each entity object involved in each relationship graph, space-time information of the entity object is queried.
The space-time information is configured to indicate a time point and a spatial location of the entity object when the entity object collects an identity associated with the entity object.
In embodiments of the disclosure, after the relationship graph corresponding to the information source is established based on the first association relationship obtained from each information source, the entity objects, such as a base station, and a camera, involved in each relationship graph may be determined. Then, the space-time information of the determined entity object is queried.
It may be understood that, each entity object has a corresponding collection time point and a spatial location of the entity object when collecting the identity associated with the entity object. The spatial location may refer to a latitude and a longitude of the entity object.
For example, the camera may determine a latitude and a longitude of the camera and a time point at which the camera collects the vehicle information when collecting vehicle information, thereby obtaining the space-time information when the entity object is the camera.
At block S204, the space-time distance between two entity objects involved in the different relationship graphs in a set space-time coordinate system is determined based on the space-time information of respective entity objects.
The space-time coordinate system refers to a coordinate system about time points and space locations. For example, the space-time coordinate system may refer to a longitude-latitude-time coordinate system. For example, x axis represents a longitude of a location where the entity object is located, y axis represents a latitude of the location where the entity object is located, and z axis represents a time point when the entity object collects the identity associated with the entity object. Of course, attributes represented by the x, y and z axes may also be interchanged, which are not limited here.
In embodiments of the disclosure, after the relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on the at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source, different relationship graphs may be mapped to the set space-time coordinate system based on the space-time information of each entity object in the relationship graph.
For example, in Embodiment one, after the relationship graphs corresponding to the multiple information sources illustrated in
It should be noted that, there may be no time-space information in some first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects when the relationship graphs are mapped to the set time-space coordinate system. In this case, time information of a node or an associated node may be used as the time-space information of the entity object, such that the first association relationship between identities and entity objects may be better represented.
In embodiments of the disclosure, the relationship graphs corresponding to the multiple information sources are mapped into the set space-time coordinate system, the space-time information of the entity objects involved in each relationship graph may be determined, and then the space-time distance between two entity objects involved in different relationship graphs in the set space-time coordinate system may be determined based on the space-time information of each entity object.
At block S205, the virtual node connecting the two entity objects is generated in a case that the space-time distance between the two entity objects is lower than a first distance threshold.
The first distance threshold is preset based on attributes of respective entity objects. For example, an attribute of an entity object may include a collection capability of a collection device, a capturing range of a camera, a signal coverage range of a base station, and so on.
In embodiments of the disclosure, after the space-time distance between two entity objects involved in different relationship graphs in the set space-time coordinate system is determined based on the space-time information of each entity object, it is determined whether the space-time distance between the two entity objects is lower than the first distance threshold.
It may be understood that, the space-time distance between two entity objects being lower than the first distance threshold means that the identities having an association relationship and respectively collected by the two entity objects are the same identity. In this case, the virtual node connecting the two entity objects may be generated, to connect different relationship graphs corresponding to the two entity objects based on the virtual node.
For example, as illustrated in
In a possible case, multiple virtual nodes connecting at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs may be generated based on the space-time distance between respective entity objects. In this case, the multiple virtual nodes may be merged to reduce the computation.
As a possible implementation, when the multiple virtual nodes are generated, the space-time information of each virtual node is obtained based on the space-time information of the entity objects connected with the corresponding virtual node. Then, the space-time distances between respective virtual nodes in the set space-time coordinate system is determined based on the space-time information of each virtual node, to merge the virtual nodes whose space-time distance in the space-time coordinate system is lower than a second distance threshold. The second distance threshold is lower than the first distance threshold. The second distance threshold may also be preset based on the attribute of respective entity objects.
In this way, the virtual nodes with the space-time information lower than the second distance threshold are merged, thereby the virtual nodes are screened based on the space-time distance between the virtual nodes, thus, reducing the computation amount when respective relationship graphs are associated based on the virtual node.
At block S206, a second association relationship between identities involved in different relationship graphs is determined based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node.
In embodiments of the disclosure, the implementation at block S206 may refer to the implementation at block S104, which is not elaborated.
At block S207, for two identities having the second association relationship in the different relationship graphs, space-time information of entity objects associated with the two identities is obtained by respectively querying relationship graphs where the two identities are located.
In embodiments of the disclosure, after the second association relationship between identities involved in different relationship graphs is determined, the relationship graphs where the corresponding two identities are located are queried respectively, and the entity objects associated with each involved identity are determined based on the first association relationships between the involved identities and the entity objects in the relationship graphs. Furthermore, the space-time information of each entity object associated with the identity is obtained based on the determined entity objects.
At block S208, the second association relationship between the two identities involved in the different relationship graphs is checked based on the obtained space-time information.
It should to be explained that, after the relationship graphs are associated based on the virtual node, and after the second association relationship between the identities involved in different relationship graphs are determined, there may be a condition where a second association relationship between two identities in different relationship graphs is incorrectly associated.
Therefore, the second association relationship between the two identities in different relationship graphs may be checked to improve the accuracy rate of identity information after merging cross-media identities.
As a possible implementation, after the space-time information of the entity objects associated with two identities is queried, the second association relationship between the two identities in different relationship graphs may be verified by using a specific business scene.
As an example, track information corresponding to the merged cross-media identity may be restored based on the specific business scene, and it is determined whether there is an abnormal node by using the track information. For example, a user is located at place A at T1 time point and located at place B at T2 time point, and a distance between the place A and the place B is D(A, B). A speed of the user from the place A to the place B is obtained as D(A, B)/(T2−T1). When the speed is far larger than a normal value, it may be determined that at least one of the place A and the place B is wrong. In this way, by checking the second association relationship between the two identities in different relationship graphs based on the queried space-time information, a node which is obviously out of a business logic (for example, the speed far larger than the normal level) may be filtered out, thereby, real cross-media identities merging is realized.
As a possible implementation, after the space-time information of the entity objects associated with the two identities is queried, the second association relationship between the two identities in different relationship graphs may also be checked based on an attribute of each entity object.
The attribute of the entity object may include an accuracy of a collection capability of a collection device, a collection range of the collection device, and so on.
With the method for processing the identity information according to embodiments of the disclosure, the space-time distance between the two entity objects in different relationship graphs in the set time coordinate system is determined based on the space-time information of the entity objects in respective relationship graphs, to generate the virtual node connecting the two entity objects. In this way, two different relationship graphs may be associated based on the generated virtual node, thereby avoiding the loss of the identity information caused by incomplete data information. By checking the second association relationship between the two identities in different relationship graphs, an interference node may be filtered out, which facilitates improving the accuracy of merging the cross-media identities.
On the basis of the above embodiments, the disclosure further provides a method for processing identity information. The detailed implementation may refer to Embodiment three.
As illustrated in
At block S301, first association relationships between identities and entity objects are obtained from multiple information sources.
At block S302, a relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source.
At block S303, a virtual node associated with at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on a space-time distance between respective entity objects.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the detailed implementation at blocks S301-S303 may refer to the implementation at blocks S101-S103, which is not elaborated here.
At block S304, a connected graph is generated based on the relationship graphs associated with multiple virtual nodes.
The connected graph includes multiple identity nodes, the multiple virtual nodes and multiple edges. An identity node is configured to indicate an identity. An edge is configured to connect a virtual node and an identity node, indicating that the virtual node has a direct or indirect association with the identity connected to the virtual node.
The connected graph means that there is a path between any two nodes to connect the two nodes.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, after the virtual node associated with the at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on the space-time distance between respective entity objects, the connected graph is generated based on the relationship graphs associated with the multiple virtual nodes.
As an example,
At block S305, the connected graph is traversed to obtain multiple target paths.
Each target path takes different identity nodes as a start point and an end point, and passes through at least one of the multiple virtual nodes.
As a possible implementation, a breadth-first search with a depth of two degrees may be performed on the connected graph to obtain the multiple target paths. The breadth-first search is a traversal strategy for the connected graph. That is to say, the breadth-first search with the depth of two degrees is performed by taking different identity nodes as a start point. In this way, a step size of each obtained path is two, each path merely contains three nodes, both a start point and an end point of the path are identity nodes, and a middle of the path is a virtual node. Thus, a path length is shortened, and the connection between a start identity point and an end identity point may be more direct, thereby improving the accuracy of filtering the association relationship between the identities.
For example, referring to
At block S306, a number of virtual nodes involved in target paths with a same start identity node and a same end identity node is counted.
In embodiments of the disclosure, the number of virtual nodes involved in the multiple target paths with the same start identity and the same end identity node is counted after the multiple target paths is obtained by traversing the connected graph.
Continuing with the example illustrated in
At block S307, it is determined that the start identity node and the end identity node have the second association relationship in a case that the number of virtual nodes is greater than a number threshold.
The number threshold may be a user-defined preset value or a value set based on a logic of an application scene, which is not limited here. For example, the number threshold may be set to 2.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, after the number of the virtual nodes involved in the target paths with the same start identity node and the same end identity node is counted, the number of the virtual nodes is compared with the number threshold to determine whether the start identity node and the end identity node have the second association relationship.
In a possible case, when the counted number of the virtual nodes involved in the target paths with the same start identity node and the same end identity node is greater than the number threshold, it is determined that there is an association relationship between the start identity node and the end identity node.
It may be understood that, when the target paths having the same start identity node and the same end identity node are counted, and the number of virtual nodes involved is greater than the number threshold, it means that the start identity node and the end identity node are connected to the same virtual node for multiple times. It may be considered that the start identity node and the end identity node have a close time-space relationship, i.e., the start identity node and the end identity node may be the same cross-media identity.
For example, referring to an example illustrated in
In another possible case, when the counted number of virtual nodes involved in the target paths with the same start identity node and the same end identity node is not greater than the number threshold, it is determined that there is no association relationship between the start identity node and the end identity node.
For example, referring to the example illustrated in
At block S308, identities indicated by the identity nodes having the second association relationship with each other are aggregated.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, after it is determined that the start identity node and the end identity node have the second association relationship based on the number of involved virtual nodes, the identities indicated by the identity nodes having the second association relationship with each other may be aggregated. In this way, the integration of the cross-media identities is implemented by aggregating the identities indicated by the identity nodes.
Continuing with the example in
With the method for processing the identity information, after the virtual node associated with the at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on the space-time distance between respective entity objects, the connected graph is generated based on the relationship graphs associated with the multiple virtual nodes, the connected graph is traversed to obtain the multiple target paths, the number of virtual nodes involved in the target paths with the same start identity node and the same end identity node is counted, it is determined that the start identity node and the end identity node have the second association relationship in the case that the number of virtual nodes is greater than the number threshold, and the identities indicated by the identity nodes having the second association relationship with each other are aggregated. In this way, the identity nodes are filtered based on the number of virtual nodes, and the identity nodes having the second association relationship are aggregated, such that the identities in the relationship graphs corresponding to different information sources are aggregated, and the loss of identity information is avoided.
On the basis of the above embodiments, the disclosure further provides a method for processing identity information. Detailed implementation may refer to Embodiment four.
As illustrated in
At block S401, first association relationships between identities and entity objects are obtained from multiple information sources.
At block S402, a relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source.
In embodiments of the disclosure, the implementation at blocks S401 and S402 may refer to the implementation at blocks S101 and S102, which is not elaborated.
At block S403, same entity objects and/or same identities involved in the different relationship graphs are merged.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, after the relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on the first association relationship obtained from each information source, different relationship graphs may be mapped to a set space-time coordinate system based on space-time information of each entity object in the relationship graphs. A mapped result may be referred in the example illustrated in
Since different relationship graphs may have the same entity object and/or the same identity, the same entity objects and/or the same identities involved in different relationship graphs may be merged to generate a connected graph.
As an example, as illustrated in
At block S404, a virtual node associated with at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on a space-time distance between respective entity objects.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, after the same entity objects and/or the same identities in all the relationship graphs are merged, there may inevitably be some isolated subgraphs. In this case, the virtual node associated with the at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs may be generated based on the space-time distance between each entity object.
As an example, as illustrated in
In an embodiment of the disclosure, a method for generating the virtual node may refer to the implementation in the above embodiment, which is elaborated here.
At block S405, a second association relationship between identities involved in different relationship graphs is determined based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node.
In an embodiment of the disclosure, the implementation at block S405 may refer to the implementation at block S104 in the above embodiment, which is not elaborated here.
With the method for processing the identify information according to embodiments of the disclosure, the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects are obtained from the multiple information sources. The relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on the at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source. The same entity objects and/or same identities involved in the different relationship graphs are merged. The virtual node associated with the at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on the space-time distance between respective entity objects. The second association relationship between identities involved in different relationship graphs is determined based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node. In this way, the relationship graphs with the common node are merged, and the virtual node is introduced to associate the relationship graphs without the common node, a complete connected graph may be constructed, avoiding the case of identity information loss due to incomplete connectivity of data information during the cross-media identities merging.

It should be noted that the above description of embodiments of the method for processing the identity information is also applicable to the apparatus for processing the identity information in this embodiment, which is not elaborated herein.
With the apparatus for processing the identify information according to embodiments of the present disclosure, the first association relationships between the identities and the entity objects are obtained from the multiple information sources. The relationship graph corresponding to each information source is established based on the at least one first association relationship obtained from each information source. The virtual node associated with the at least two entity objects in different relationship graphs is generated based on the space-time distance between respective entity objects. The second association relationship between the identities involved in different relationship graphs is determined based on the relationship graphs associated with the virtual node. In this way, the relationship graphs corresponding to respective information sources are associated by the virtual node, so that the identities involved in different relationship graphs may be associated, which not only improves the accuracy of merging the identities, but also may be applied to any scene, thereby avoiding the problem that an application range of the existing method for merging the identities is limited.
