METHOD, APPARATUS AND COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM FOR TAGGING IMAGE CONTAINED IN WEB PAGE AND PROVIDING WEB SEARCH SERVICE USING TAGGED RESULT

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for providing a web search service by tagging an image included in a webpage and using a tagging result, and a device and a computer-readable recording medium thereof are provided to enhance usability of the webpage by increasing the number of effectively searchable webpages. CONSTITUTION: A crawling unit periodically crawls webpages(S310). An image recognition/analysis unit of a text reader analyzes an image of the webpage by using an image analysis algorithm(S320). A character/symbol converter converts a character or a symbol included in the analyzed image into a machine-readable character or symbol(S330). A markup language convertor converts result information of a read text into a markup language(S340). An interpreter parses contents of web contents converted in a markup language form(S350). A tagger generates tag data by extracting information needed for tagging from the text included in the parsed web contents. The tag data which is matched with the corresponded web contents and the information for relationship is stored to a tag database(S360).
