Detailed Description

[035] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and fully described in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the embodiments to be described are only a part rather than all of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without any creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[036] For ease of understanding, an application scenario of the present application is introduced first.

[037] As shown in FIG. 2, after purchasing an item on an e-commerce website, a user may send a request for querying logistics information through a client. A server of the e-commerce website receives the logistics query request, and then acquires logistics information from a logistics system, where the logistics information may be referred to as non-standardized logistics information.

[038] The server performs standardization processing on the non-standardized logistics information, and returns standardized logistics information to the client. For example, the logistics information shown in FIG. 1 is converted into standardized logistics information shown in FIG. 3. The server may include one or more processors coupled to computer-readable storage medium, e.g., memory. The memory stores instructions (e.g., program codes). The one or more processors are configured to execute the instructions to cause the server to perform the methods described in this disclosure.

[039] The method for processing logistics information according to the present application may be applied on a server, to convert non-standardized logistics information into logistics information of a standardized format, which is convenient for users to read.

[040] FIG. 4 shows the flow of a method for processing logistics information, which includes Steps S401 - S405 as follows.

[041 ] Step S401 : Acquire logistics information if a logistics information query request is received.

[042] A user may log on to an e-commerce platform to query logistics information of an item.

[043] A logistics system stores logistics information of items, and the logistics information may be referred to as original logistics information in order to distinguish from standardized logistics information. A server of the e-commerce platform receives a logistics information query request for an item from a user, and then acquires the original logistics information of the item from the logistics system.

[044] The server of the e-commerce platform may also perform a standardization process of Steps S402 - S405 on the original logistics information after the logistics system uploads the original logistics information. However, in this way, the e-commerce platform needs to store both of the original logistics information and the standardized logistics information in a magnetic disk. The standardized logistics information is stored and thus can be presented to a user when the user queries the logistics information.

[045] Because the e-commerce platform needs to process logistics information of a large number of items, the above manner may consume a great amount of storage resources, and is impractical. Therefore, the standardization process can be performed after the logistics information query request from the user is received. The standardized logistics information may be directly displayed to the user, instead of being stored in a magnetic disk, thereby saving the storage resources.

[046] Step S402: Determine a logistics state corresponding to the logistics information.

[047] Before implementation, multiple logistics states are preset. The logistics states represent logistics states of items at different stages in the whole logistics process, including: shipped, picked up, arrived at a logistics service point, handled by the logistics service point, sent out from the logistics service point, in route for delivery, received with signature, etc.

[048] Other logistics states may be set according to actual presentation requirements, or, one or some logistics states are omitted, for example, the logistics state of being handled by the logistics service point is omitted.

[049] Optionally, a corresponding logistics state is determined for each piece of logistics information.

[050] Step S403: Determine a logistics information presentation template

corresponding to the logistics state.

[051 ] The logistics information presentation template (or information presentation template for short) contains information items of different types, and limits the display manner of each information item.

[052] Before implementation, a corresponding logistics information presentation template may be set for each logistics state. After a logistics state corresponding to a piece of logistics information is determined, a corresponding information presentation template may be determined for the logistics information according to the logistics state.

[053] To provide intuitive reading experience for a user, the information presentation template contains multiple information items, and different information items represent logistics information of different content types.

[054] For example, the logistics state may be any one of being picked up, arriving at a logistics service point, sent out from the logistics service point, in route for delivery, and received with signature, where:

[055] the information presentation template corresponding to the logistics state of being picked up is:

[056] {regional address} Picked up by a collector {courier} from {name of the logistics company};

[057] the information presentation template corresponding to the logistics state of arriving at a logistics service point is:

[058] {regional address} Package arrived at {address of the logistics service point};

[059] the information presentation template corresponding to the logistics state of being sent out from the logistics service point is:

[060] {regional address} Left from {address of the logistics service point};

[061 ] the information presentation template corresponding to the logistics state of being in route for delivery is:

[062] {regional address} In route for delivery by dispatcher: {courier} {phone} from {name of the logistics company}; [063] the information presentation template corresponding to the logistics state of being received with signature is:

[064] {regional address} {signed copy}, thank you for choosing {name of the logistics company}, look forward to serving you next time.

[065] The contents in brackets are information items, the specific contents of the information items need to be filled in information presentation templates according to logistics information, and the contents outside the braces are built-in texts in the templates.

[066] The present application limits the display manner of each information item, and may limit the display order and the display form of each information item. For example, according to the actual requirement, a user is interested in the regional address of an item; therefore, the information item of regional address may be arranged at the beginning, and may be set in a display form different from other information items. For example, the display form may be set in different display colors, or adding format symbols like [ ].

[067] For example, in an information presentation template of a piece of logistics information, if the content of the information item of regional address is Ningbo City, the display form may be [Ningbo City].

[068] In view of the above, Step S402 and Step S403 are performed to determine a corresponding logistics information presentation template for logistics information.

However, it should be noted that, the manner of determining a logistics information presentation template for logistics information is not limited to the manner shown in Step S402 and Step S403, and other manners may also be adopted.

[069] Step S404: Determine, according to the logistics information, logistics presentation information corresponding to each information item in the logistics information presentation template.

[070] The logistics presentation information is the content corresponding to an information item. Taking the above example for instance, the content "Ningbo City" in the information item of regional address is logistics presentation information corresponding to the regional address. [071 ] The determining manner may be, searching the logistics information for the content corresponding to each information item, and if not found, determining the logistics presentation information according to the type of each information item.

[072] For example, if the logistics information is: "being scanned before delivery at Zhejiang Hangzhou Xihu Wenjiao Company; dispatcher: Zhang San; phone:

1337683****", the information presentation template corresponding to the logistics state of being in route for delivery is: {regional address} {name of the logistics company} dispatcher: in route for delivery by {courier} {phone}.

[073] The above information presentation template includes four information items, and the logistics presentation information of the last three information items may be found in the logistics information. For example, the name of the logistics company is "Zhejiang Hangzhou Xihu Wenjiao Company", and the courier is "Zhang San" with the phone number "1337683****"; therefore, the logistics presentation information corresponding to the three information items can be directly obtained.

[074] The information item of regional address cannot be directly acquired from logistics records, and needs to be acquired in other manners, for example, by searching for the address related to the name of the logistics company using a map application, the found address being the regional address.

[075] Step S405: Fill the logistics presentation information in the logistics information presentation template, to obtain standardized logistics information.

[076] Step S404 is performed to determine the logistics presentation information corresponding to each information item in the information presentation template, and Step S405 is performed to fill each piece of the logistics presentation information in the logistics information presentation template, to realize standardization processing of the original logistics information.

[077] In view of the above, Step S404 and Step S405 are performed to fill the logistics information into the logistics information presentation template, to obtain standardized logistics information. However, the manner of filling the logistics information into the logistics information presentation template is not limited to the above manner, and other manners may also be adopted. [078] The standardized logistics information may be returned and displayed to a user, and is more convenient for the user to read.

[079] It can be seen from the above technical solution that, this embodiment provides a method for processing logistics information, so as to process original logistics information in a logistics system into logistics information of a standardized format. Firstly, according to a logistics state corresponding to logistics information, an information presentation template containing multiple information items is determined and logistics presentation information corresponding to each information item is determined, and the logistics presentation information is filled into the information presentation template to obtain standardized logistics information to be presented to a user, where the standardized logistics information better meets the requirement of the degree of attention from the user on the logistics information, so the user experience is better.

[080] In the implementation, the specific implementation manner of determining the logistics state corresponding to the logistics information in Step S402 may include Steps A1 - A3 as follows.

[081 ] Step A1 : Extract a word segment of a preset part-of-speech from the logistics information.

[082] The extracted word segment is configured to describe the logistics state of an item, and thus the extracted word segment may be referred to as a target logistics state word.

[083] The word segmentation operation is performed on the logistics information by using the word segmentation technology, to obtain multiple word segments. Each word segment has its part-of-speech, such as adjective, verb, and noun. It is found through studies that, word segments of some parts-of-speech, such as verb and adjective, may represent the logistics state of an item.

[084] For example, in the logistics information of being picked up by a collector "Key Client" in "Jiangxi Yingtan Yujiang Company", "picked up" is a verb phrase indicating that the logistics state of the item is being picked up.

[085] Therefore, word segments of some preset parts-of-speech are extracted from the logistics information after the word segmentation operation is performed. For example, after the word segmentation operation is performed on the third line of the logistics information "scanned for next stop in Zhejiang Yuyao Company, and to be sent to:

Zhejiang Hangzhou Service Point" in FIG. 1 , the verb phrases "scanned for next stop" and "to be sent to" are extracted.

[086] Step A2: Obtain multiple logistics state probabilities of the word segment, the logistics state probabilities representing the possibilities that the word segment corresponds to the logistics states.

[087] Before implementation, a large number of state words/phrases may be collected in advance to generate a state word library, which may be referred to as a preset state word library. State word samples are trained by using a classification probability algorithm such as a naive Bayes classification algorithm, to obtain a classification probability model. The classification probability model may be used to calculate the probability that the state word is in each logistics state.

[088] For example, there are five logistics states, namely, picked up, arriving at a logistics service point, sent out from the logistics service point, in route for delivery, and received with signature, and the probability that the state word "to be sent to"

corresponds to each logistics state is calculated by using the classification probability model.

[089] If the word segment is contained in the state word library, the classification probability model may be used to calculate multiple logistics state probabilities for the word segment. Therefore, the calculated logistics state probabilities are directly obtained.

[090] Step A3: Determine the logistics state corresponding to a maximum value of the logistics state probabilities as the logistics state of the logistics information.

[091 ] The logistics state probabilities of the word segment may vary, and the probability of the logistics state that the word segment actually corresponds to is the maximum value among the logistics state probabilities.

[092] Therefore, the maximum value of the logistics state probabilities is selected. The logistics state corresponding to the maximum value is determined as the logistics state of the logistics information.

[093] For example, the target logistics state word extracted from the logistics information "scanned for next stop in Zhejiang Yuyao Company, and to be sent to:

Zhejiang Hangzhou Service Point" is "to be sent to", and the probabilities that the target logistics state word "to be sent to" corresponds to the logistics states of being picked up, arriving at a logistics service point, sent out from the logistics service point, in route for delivery, and received with signature are respectively 0.1 , 0.1 , 0.6, 0.1 , and 0.1 , which are calculated by using the classification probability model, where the logistics state corresponding to the maximum value 0.6 is "being sent out from the logistics service point", so that the logistics state of the logistics information is: sent out from the logistics service point.

[094] If multiple word segments are extracted in Step A1 , two processing manners may be adopted. The first processing manner is to select one word segment from the word segments and perform Step A2. The second processing manner is to perform Step A2 and Step A3 on each word segment, determine whether the logistics states

corresponding to the maximum logistics state probabilities of the word segments are the same, and if all the logistics states are the same or a number of logistics states exceeding a preset value are the same, determine this logistics state as the logistics state of the logistics information.

[095] In the actual application, a piece of key logistics information that a user is interested in is the location address of the delivery item. However, the original logistics information usually does not contain address information, and address information of an item needs to be determined according to other contents in the logistics information.

[096] Therefore, the implementation manner of determining the logistics presentation information corresponding to an information item in the logistics information presentation template in Step S404 may include Step B1 and Step B2 as follows.

[097] Step B1 : Determine a logistics service point where an item is located from the logistics information.

[098] Generally, the logistics information uploaded by a logistics system contains the name of a logistics service point, so that a logistics service point where a target item is located may be extracted from the logistics information.

[099] For example, if the logistics information is "scanned in Zhejiang Yuyao Company for the next delivery stop, and to be sent to: Zhejiang Hangzhou Service Point", the logistics service point determined from the logistics information is "Zhejiang Yuyao Company".

[100] Step B2: Determine the regional address of the logistics service point as the address item in the logistics presentation information.

[101 ] A map application may be invoked through a query interface provided by the map application to search for the address of the logistics service point, and the found address is determined as the address item in the logistics presentation information, that is, the content corresponding to the information item of regional address in the logistics presentation template.

[102] For example, the address of the logistics service point "Zhejiang Yuyao

Company" is Ningbo City, and thus Ningbo City is the address item.

[103] In the actual application, the address may be categorized by administrative division, and determined to an administrative region, for example, a city. The address may be further determined to a smaller administrative region, for example, a county or district.

[104] Through Step B1 and Step B2, when the regional address cannot be extracted from the logistics information, the regional address of the logistics information may be determined by using the logistics service point.

[105] The third line of the logistics information "scanned for next stop in Zhejiang Yuyao Company, and to be sent to: Zhejiang Hangzhou Service Point" in FIG. 1 is used as an example below to illustrate the standardization of the logistics information.

[106] Firstly, the word segmentation operation is performed on the logistics information, a target logistics state word "to be sent to" is extracted, and logistics state probabilities corresponding to the target logistics state word are determined by using the classification probability model. The logistics state "sent out from the logistics service point"

corresponding to the maximum logistics state probability is determined as the target logistics state of the logistics information.

[107] Then, the information presentation template corresponding to the target logistics state "sent out from the logistics service point" is determined as: left from {regional address}{address of the logistics service point}. It can be seen from the above that, the information presentation template comprises two information items, namely, regional address and address of the logistics service point.

[108] The logistics presentation information corresponding to the information item "address of the logistics service point" is determined. The logistics service point extracted from the logistics information is "Zhejiang Yuyao Company", and thus

"Zhejiang Yuyao Company" may be determined as the logistics presentation information of the address of the logistics service point.

[109] The logistics presentation information corresponding to the information item "regional address" is determined. A map application is invoked to query and find that the address of the logistics service point "Zhejiang Yuyao Company" is "Ningbo City", and thus "Ningbo City" is determined as the logistics presentation information of the regional address. To make it convenient for a user to view the content of the item of regional address, character-prompting square brackets [ ] are used in the information

presentation template to mark and prompt the content of the regional address.

[1 10] Finally, the logistics presentation information "Zhejiang Yuyao Company" and "Ningbo City" are filled into the corresponding information items in the information presentation template, and standardized logistics information is obtained as follows:

[1 1 1 ] [Ningbo City] Left from Zhejiang Yuyao Company.

[1 12] Each piece of the logistics information in FIG. 1 is standardized in the above manner, and the standardized logistics information to be presented to a user as shown in FIG. 3 is obtained.

[1 13] In an actual application, it is possible that the logistics states of multiple pieces of logistics information in one logistics service point are the same; therefore, after the logistics information is filled into the logistics information presentation template, the same standardized logistics information is obtained.

[1 14] For example, in the logistics information shown in FIG. 1 , the first piece of the logistics information, the second piece of the logistics information, and the third piece of the logistics information all of which correspond to Friday are generated at Zhejiang Hangzhou Distribution Center, and the corresponding logistics states are all "arriving at the logistics service point".

[1 15] After the three pieces of the logistics information are filled into the logistics information presentation template, the same standardized logistics information is obtained, that is: [Jiaxing City] Package arrived at Zhejiang Hangzhou Transfer Center.

[1 16] Therefore, a deduplication operation needs to be performed on the repeated standardized logistics information, that is, only one copy of the same standardized logistics information is kept, and the standardized logistics information with the earliest logistics time is kept.

[1 17] To solve the technical problem of the repeated standardized logistics information, the following method for processing logistics information may be used.

[1 18] As shown in FIG. 5, Embodiment 2 of a method for processing logistics information according to the present application may include Steps S501 - S504. The differences between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 of the method for processing logistics information are described below, and details about the same content are not repeatedly described herein.

[1 19] Step S501 : Acquire multiple pieces of logistics information.

[120] Step S502: Screen to obtain target logistics information belonging to logistics nodes from the multiple pieces of logistics information.

[121 ] The logistics nodes may be distinguished according to logistics states of the logistics information.

[122] As for the logistics information corresponding to one-time logistics states including being shipped, picked up, in route for delivery, and received with signature, the logistics nodes are the logistics states of the logistics information.

[123] As for the logistics information corresponding to the logistics states including arriving at a logistics service point and sent out from the logistics service point, the logistics nodes are the logistics state of the logistics information of arriving at a logistics service point and the logistics state of the logistics information of being sent out from the logistics service point.

[124] For example, in the logistics information shown in FIG. 1 , the logistics service points corresponding to the first piece to the fifth piece of the logistics information all of which correspond to Friday are Zhejiang Hangzhou Distribution Center, where the first piece of the logistics information is the logistics information of arriving at the logistics service point, and the fifth piece of the logistics information is the logistics information of being sent out from the logistics service point. Therefore, the target logistics information belonging to the logistics nodes and obtained by screening from the five pieces of the logistics information includes the first piece and the fifth piece of the logistics information.

[125] This step may be performed in the following manner:

[126] determining a logistics state corresponding to each piece of the logistics information; determining logistics information corresponding to the same logistics service point in the multiple pieces of logistics information as one logistics information group; as for each logistics information group, screening to obtain the target logistics information belonging to the logistics nodes, according to the logistics states of the logistics information in the logistics information group.

[127] The logistics information is grouped according to the logistics service point, and the logistics information in each logistics information group is processed separately. According to the logistics states of the logistics information in each logistics information group, the first logistics state indicating arriving at a logistics service point is obtained by screening, and the last logistics state indicating being sent out from the logistics service point is obtained by screening. The logistics information corresponding to the logistics states obtained from the screening is the logistics information belonging to the logistics nodes.

[128] For the one-time logistics state, the first logistics state indicating arriving at a logistics service point and the last logistics state indicating being sent out from the logistics service point are the same.

[129] Step S503: Determine a corresponding logistics information presentation template for the target logistics information.

[130] The logistics state may be determined for the target logistics information, and as for the determining manner, reference may be made to Embodiment 1 of the method for processing logistics information. Therefore, the logistics information presentation template corresponding to the logistics state is determined according to the logistics state of the target logistics information.

[131 ] Step S504: Fill the target logistics information into the logistics information presentation template, to obtain standardized logistics information.

[132] In the method for processing logistics information provided by this embodiment, the logistics information belonging to the logistics node may be first obtained by screening, and the logistics information with the same logistics state is deduplicated in the logistics information obtained by the screening; therefore, the standardized logistics information obtained after the logistics information is filled into the logistics information presentation template has no duplicate information, so that more concise logistics information is presented to a user, and the user experience is better.

[133] Besides, time disorder of multiple pieces of the same logistics information may occur in the implementation. Some logistics states may appear only once, such as being picked up, in route for delivery, and received with signature. For ease of description, such logistics states may be referred to as one-time logistics states.

[134] For example, a piece of logistics information of being in route for delivery exists in the logistics information, while another piece of logistics information of being in route for delivery is generated after a user signs for the package. In this case, the repeated logistics information needs to be processed.

[135] The logistics state is determined for each piece of the logistics information, and if the determined multiple logistics states contain multiple identical one-time logistics states, the logistics state corresponding to the earliest logistics information needs to be selected from the multiple logistics states, and the information presentation template is

determined for the selected logistics state.

[136] Besides, when the logistics presentation information of each information item in the information presentation template is determined according to the logistics information, the earliest logistics information uploaded by the logistics system may be selected from the logistics information corresponding to the multiple one-time logistics states, and the logistics presentation information corresponding to each information item is determined according to the selected logistics information. Reference may be made to the

description of Step S404 for the determining method, and the details are not repeatedly described herein.

[137] For example, the logistics system uploads the logistics information of being in route for delivery at 13: 15, uploads the logistics information of being received with signature at 14:00, and uploads the logistics information of being in route for delivery once again at 16:00. After the information presentation template is selected for the target logistics state of being in route for delivery, the logistics information uploaded earlier, that is, the logistics information uploaded at 13: 15 is selected from the two pieces of logistics information of being in route for delivery, and the logistics presentation information is extracted from the logistics information.

[138] In an actual application, cross-border logistics may occur, that is, a target item (item for short) may be transported from one country or district into another country or district. In a cross-border logistics scenario, the Customs need to inspect the target item, and thus the logistics information contains logistics information in two countries or districts as well as related clearance information.

[139] In this application scenario, the information presentation template of the target item includes a cross-border logistics information presentation template, and the cross-border logistics information presentation template contains all the cross-border logistics links, that is, cross-border link items. Each cross-border link item represents the cross-border logistics link of the target item when the logistics system uploads the logistics information. FIG. 6 shows an example of logistics information generated after standardization of logistics information in a cross-border logistics scenario. As shown in FIG. 6, the cross-border link items contained in the standardized logistics information are "China", "consolidation", and "overseas".

[140] In the process of generating the standardized logistics information, the implementation manner of determining the logistics presentation information

corresponding to each information item according to the logistics information in Step S404 may include Step C1 and Step C2 as follows.

[141 ] Step C1 : Extract cross-border terms indicating cross-border logistics states from the logistics information.

[142] An information presentation template may be determined for the logistics information in the domestic stage by using the above manner, and the logistics presentation information is filled into the information presentation template for standardization, for example, the fourth line of the standardized logistics information in FIG. 6.

[143] Cross-border link items need to be added in the case of cross-border logistics. If it is shipped from China, the logistics presentation information corresponding to the cross-border link item in the domestic logistics stage is "China".

[144] After entering the next stage of the domestic logistics stage, the logistics information uploaded by the logistics system may be "Accepted by the consolidation hub" as shown in FIG. 6, and thus cross-border terms indicating the cross-border states such as "consolidation hub" and "accepted by" may be extracted from this piece of the logistics information.

[145] Step C2: Determine a cross-border link item in the cross-border logistics information presentation template according to the cross-border terms.

[146] Because the cross-border logistics state indicated by the cross-border terms is unique, the cross-border link item corresponding to the cross-border terms may be determined according to the cross-border terms.

[147] For example, the cross-border link item corresponding to the cross-border terms "consolidation hub" and "accepted by" is the "consolidation" stage, and the logistics presentation information "consolidation" can be determined according to this group of cross-border terms.

[148] For example, the cross-border link item corresponding to the cross-border terms "consolidation hub" and "departed" is the "overseas" stage, and the logistics presentation information "overseas" can be determined according to this group of cross-border terms.

[149] The cross-border link item of each stage of domestic transportation and clearance is described above. If the clearance is successful, after entering the overseas transportation stage, the logistics link item of the logistics information uploaded by the logistics system may be "overseas" or others. If the uploaded logistics information is not in Chinese, the logistics information may be translated into Chinese and then the logistics presentation information of each information item is determined in the above manner of determining the information presentation template, so as to perform standardization processing on the logistics information in the overseas transportation stage. The logistics information after standardization processing is similar to the fourth line of the logistics information in FIG. 6, and comprises the logistics presentation information of each information item.
