     DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS 
     Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, and include various details of the embodiments of the present disclosure to facilitate understanding, which should be considered as merely exemplary. Therefore, those ordinary skilled in the art should recognize that various changes and modifications may be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present application. Also, for clarity and conciseness, descriptions of well-known functions and structures are omitted in the following description. 
     In order to better understand the technical solutions of the present disclosure, firstly, the related technologies involved in the present disclosure will be further described in detail. 
     Symbiosis is a concept in the living nature, which refers to a two-way relationship between two species in the living nature that is mutually dependent and mutually beneficial. These relationships may be long-term, including material contact or biochemical links. Typical cases may include, e.g., sea anemones and clown fish, buffaloes and cow starlings, etc. 
     At present, there are also interdependent links among different regions in the urban environment, where the region may be, for example, a community, or a block, etc. The specific division of the region is not limited in this embodiment. 
     If the interdependent relationship between different regions can be quantified, it will be of great significance to enriching content of maps, optimizing traffic scheduling, commercial location recommendation, comprehensive urban governance and other service scenarios. 
     At present, there is no effective solution to quantify the interdependent relationship between different regions. Therefore, the present disclosure proposes the following technical idea: by analyzing a complementary relationship of function distribution between different regions, the interdependent relationship between different regions is quantified, in combination with spatial features, from the perspective of supply relationships in an industrial chain, so as to obtain a symbiosis between different regions. 
     For example, a scenario of a region information processing method provided by the present disclosure may be described first with reference to  FIG. 1 .  FIG. 1  is a schematic diagram of the scenario for the region information processing method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     As shown in  FIG. 1 , there is currently a total region, and the total region may include a plurality of regions, for example, in  FIG. 1 , the total region includes a region a, a region b, a region c, and a region d. Understandably, the implementation of the total region and each divided region shown in  FIG. 1  is merely an exemplary description for illustrating the situation. 
     In an actual implementation process, the total region may be understood as, for example, an urban region. As for the specific range and specific division of the urban region, it may be selected according to actual needs, such as the region a, the region b, etc. divided in the urban region, which may be, for example, blocks, or communities, etc. The specific implementation of the division of the region is also not limited in the embodiments, which may be selected according to actual needs. 
     In this embodiment, the symbiosis between any two regions may be determined, for example, the symbiosis between the region a and the region b may be determined, and the symbiosis between the region a and the region c may also be determined, and so on. For example, taking the symbiosis between the region a and the region b as an example, for example, relevant data of the region a and relevant data of the region b may be acquired, and then the symbiosis between the region a and the region b may be determined according to the data of the region a and the data of the region b. 
     The implementation of determining the symbiosis between different regions is described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. It is worth noting that the executive body of the embodiments in the present disclosure may be a device with a data processing function, such as a server, a processor, a microprocessor, etc. The specific implementation of the executive body is not particularly limited in the present disclosure, as long as it is a device with a data processing function. 
       FIG. 2  is a flowchart of a region information processing method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     As shown in  FIG. 2 , the method includes: 
     S 201 . Acquire a first distance between a first region and a second region, a first object set included in the first region, and a second object set included in the second region. 
     In this embodiment, the symbiosis between the first region and the second region needs to be determined. The first region and the second region may be any two different regions, which is not limited in this embodiment. 
     In this embodiment, the first distance between the first region and the second region may be acquired, the first object set included in the first region may be acquired, and the second object included in the second region may be acquired. 
     Where the first distance may be, for example, a spherical distance between coordinates of region centers of the two regions, or it may also be a Euclidean distance, etc. In an actual implementation process, the first distance may be any possible physical space distance, which is not limited in this embodiment. 
     Besides, the object mentioned in this embodiment, for example, may be understood as a point of interest (POI). In a geographic data system, a POI may be a house, a store, a mail box, a bus stop, etc. 
     Therefore, in this embodiment, the acquiring the first object set included in the first region may be understood as acquiring a set of points of interest included in the first region, and the acquiring the second object set included in the second region may be understood as acquiring a set of points of interest included in the second region. 
     When acquiring the above-described data, in a possible implementation, the first distance, the first object set, the second object set, etc. may all be stored in map data, and the above data may be acquired from the map data. For instance, the first distance between the first region and the second region is acquired from the map data, and the first object set and the second object set are acquired from the map data. 
     In a possible implementation of acquiring the object set from the map data, for example, directly acquiring the points of interest included in a range of each region, so as to obtain the first object set and the second object set; or, acquiring positions of all points of interest in the urban region where the first region and the second region are located, and then matching the positions of the points of interest and the range of the first region and the range of the second region, so as to determine the first object set included in the first region and the second object set included in the second region. 
     In another possible implementation of acquiring the above-described data, storing the above-described data, for example, in a preset device, and then acquiring the first distance, the first object set and the second object set according to a region identification of the first region and a region identification of the second region from the preset device. 
     The specific implementation of acquiring the above-described data is not limited in this embodiment, which may be selected according to actual needs. 
     S 202 . Determine spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region according to the first distance. 
     After acquiring the various above-described data, it is possible to determine the spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region according to the first distance therein. 
     Understandably, there is a certain correlation between the symbiosis and distance between the two regions. In a possible implementation, the closer the distance between the two regions, the stronger the symbiosis. Correspondingly, the further the distance between the two regions, the weaker the symbiosis. 
     Therefore, in this embodiment, the spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region may be determined first according to the first distance between the first region and the second region, where the spatial dependency information may be used to indicate, for example, a level of influence of the distance between the two regions in determining the symbiosis. 
     In a possible implementation, for example, the first distance may be processed according to a first preset function, so as to determine the spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region; or, the first distance may also be used as an input of a first preset model, so as to determine the spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region, which is not limited in this embodiment, as long as the spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region is determined according to the first distance. 
     S 203 . Determine object dependency information between the first region and the second region according to the first object set and the second object set. 
     In this embodiment, the object dependency relationship between the first region and the second region may be determined according to the first object set and the second object set. The object dependency relationship may be used to indicate, for example, the level of influence of the points of interest between the two regions in determining the symbiosis. 
     For instance, there is a shopping mall a in the first region, and an office building b in the second region. Employees in the office building b often go to eat in the shopping mall a after work. Therefore, there is a certain interdependent relationship of the points of interest between different regions, the object dependency information in this embodiment is used to quantify this interdependent relationship. 
     In a possible implementation, for example, the first object set and the second object set may be processed according to a second preset function, so as to determine the object dependency information between the first region and the second region; or, the first object set and the second object set may also be used as an input of a second preset model, so as to determine the object dependency information between the first region and the second region, which is not limited in this embodiment, as long as the object dependency information is determined according to the first object set and the second object set. 
     S 204 . Determine a symbiosis between the first region and the second region according to the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information. 
     After determining the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information, it is possible to determine the symbiosis between the first region and the second region according to the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information. 
     Understandably, the spatial dependency information may indicate an influence factor of the distance between the first region and the second region, the object dependency information may indicate the influence factor of the points of interest between the first region and the second region, and the distance and points of interest may effectively indicate the symbiosis between regions, therefore, according to these two parts of information, the symbiosis between the first region and the second region may be accurately and effectively determined. 
     In a possible implementation, the symbiosis between the first region and the second region may be a specific value, therefore, the symbiosis in this embodiment may also be specifically a symbiotic level, and the symbiosis may indicate the dependency relationship and the mutual influence relationship between the first region and the second region, etc. 
     When determining the symbiosis between the first region and the second region according to the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information, for example, the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information may be processed according to a third preset function, so as to determine the symbiosis between the first region and the second region; or, the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information may also be input into a third preset model, so as to obtain the symbiosis between the first region and the second region. The specific implementation of determining the symbiosis is not limited in this embodiment, as long as it is determined according to the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information. 
     Therefore, in this embodiment, the quantification of the symbiosis between two different regions may be realized accurately and effectively based on the above-described process. 
     The region information processing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure includes: acquiring a first distance between a first region and a second region, a first object set included in the first region and a second object set included in the second region; determining spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region according to the first distance; determining object dependency information between the first region and the second region according to the first object set and the second object set; and determining a symbiosis between the first region and the second region according to the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information. By determining of the spatial dependency information between the two regions according to the distance between the first region and the second region, and determining the object dependency information according to points of interest corresponding to the first region and points of interest corresponding to the second region, and finally obtaining the symbiosis between the first region and the second region based on the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information, the quantification of the symbiosis between the two regions may be realized accurately and effectively from the perspective of the distance between the regions and the dependency relationship of functions between the regions. 
     On the basis of the above-described embodiments, the region information processing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in further detail below with reference to  FIGS. 3 to 5 .  FIG. 3A  and  FIG. 3B  are a second flowchart of a region information processing method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure.  FIG. 4  is a schematic implementation diagram of function categories corresponding to a region provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, and  FIG. 5  is a possible schematic implementation diagram of an object relationship provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     As shown in  FIG. 3A  and  FIG. 3B , the method includes: 
     S 301 . Acquire a first distance between a first region and a second region, a first object set included in the first region, and a second object set included in the second region. 
     Where the implementation of S 301  is similar to the implementation of S 201 . 
     S 302 . Determine whether the first distance is less than or equal to a preset distance, if yes, execute S 303 , if not, execute S 304 . 
     In this embodiment, firstly, the implementation of determining the spatial dependency information is described in detail in conjunction with S 302 -S 310 . When determining the spatial dependency information, it is determined according to the first distance between the first region and the second region. 
     In this embodiment, the symbiotic level and the distance between regions are, for example, positively correlated. The closer the distance, the higher the symbiotic level, and the farther the distance, the lower the symbiotic level. However, attenuation of the symbiotic level should not be linear attenuation. As the distance increases, the attenuation of the symbiotic level should become slower and slower. 
     Therefore, in a possible implementation, for the first distance greater than the preset distance, and the first distance less than or equal to the preset distance, the implementation of determining the spatial dependency information is not the same. 
     Therefore, it may be firstly determined whether the first distance is less than or equal to the preset distance, where the specific implementation of the preset distance may be selected according to actual needs. 
     For example, the implementation of determining the spatial dependency information according to the first distance may satisfy the following formula 1:

     Among them, distance is the first distance, θ d  is the preset distance, d(a, b) represents a physical space distance between a region a and a region b (for example, a Euclidean distance, a spherical distance, etc., which may be considered as the above-described the first distance), α(a, b) represents a power law attenuation degree of the physical distance between the region a and the region b, a may represent, for example, the first region, b may represent, for example, the second region, ζ(a, b) represents the spatial dependency information between the region a and the region b. 
     S 303 . Determine that the spatial dependency information is preset information. 
     In a possible implementation, if it is determined that the first distance is less than or equal to the preset distance, it means that the distance between the two regions is not very far, so it may be determined that the spatial dependency information is the preset information. 
     In this embodiment, since the quantification of the symbiosis is sought to be implemented, the spatial dependency information in this embodiment may be numerical information, correspondingly, the preset information therein may be, for example, a preset value, for instance, the preset information may be the preset value 1 described in the above formula 1, or the preset information may be any value. 
     S 304 . Acquire a first area of the first region and a second area of the second region. 
     In another possible implementation, if it is determined that the first distance is greater than the preset distance, it means that the distance between the two regions is relatively far, and the spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region may be, for example, defined as a power function of the distance between two regions, which is d(a, b) −α(a,b)  described in the above formula 1. 
     Therefore, in this case, to determine the spatial dependency relationship between the first region and the second region, it is necessary to determine the power law attenuation degree α(a, b) of the physical distance between the first region and the second region. 
     In a possible implementation, the power law attenuation degree α(a, b) of the physical distance between the first region and the second region may satisfy, for example, the following formula 2: 
       α( a,b )=α 0 −λ×ρ( a,b )+(1−λ)×η( a,b )  Formula 2
 
     Among them, α(a, b) is the power law attenuation degree, α 0  is a constant, and its value is, for example, between 1.5 and 2, (1.5≤α 0 ≤2), for example, its default value may be 1.5; λ is a weight coefficient, for example, its default value may be 0.5; where ρ(a, b) represents a total normalized area of the first region and the second region, and η(a, b) represents total object distribution information between the first region and the second region. 
     Based on the above introduction, it may be determined that when the first distance is determined to be greater than the preset distance, in order to determine the spatial dependency information between the first region and the second region, it is necessary to determine the power law attenuation degree α(a, b) of the physical distance between the first region and the second region, and the power law attenuation degree α(a, b) is determined according to the total normalized area ρ(a, b) and the total object distribution information η(a, b). 
     Therefore, it is necessary to determine the total normalized area ρ(a, b) and the total object distribution information η(a, b). In the following, the implementation of the total normalized area ρ(a, b) will be described in conjunction with S 304 -S 306 . 
     In a possible implementation, the total normalized area ρ(a, b) may satisfy, for example, the following formula 3: 
       ρ( a,b )=0.5×ι( a )+0.5×ι( b )  Formula 3
 
     Among them, ι(a) is a normalized area value of the region a, ι(b) is a normalized area value of the region b, and ρ(a, b) is the total normalized area of the first region and the second region. 
     Based on these, when determining the total normalized area ρ(a, b), it is necessary to determine the normalized area of the first region and the normalized area of the second region. In a possible implementation, the implementation of the normalized area may satisfy the following formula 4:

     represents the largest region in the region set R. 
     Based on the above formula 4, it may be determined that, in order to determine the normalized area of the first region and the normalized area of the second region, it is necessary to determine the area of the first region and the area of the second region. 
     Therefore, in this embodiment, the first area of the first region and the second area of the second region may be acquired. In a possible implementation, for example, the area of the first region may be acquired from map information, and the area of the second region may be acquired from map information. 
     Alternatively, the first area of the first region may also be acquired from a preset device, and the second area of the second region may be acquired from the preset device, and relevant data of the regions may be stored in the preset device. 
     S 305 . Determine a first normalized area corresponding to the first area and a second normalized area corresponding to the second area. 
     After acquiring the first area of the first region, it is possible to determine the first normalized area corresponding to the first area according to the first area. 
     For example, in conjunction with the above-described formula 4, the first area of the first region may be substituted into the above formula 4, so as to determine the first normalized area ι(a) corresponding to the first area. 
     Besides, after acquiring the second area of the second region, it is possible to determine the second normalized area corresponding to the second area according to the second area. 
     For example, in conjunction with the above-described formula 4, the second area of the second region may be substituted into the above formula 4, so as to determine the second normalized area ι(b) corresponding to the second area. 
     S 306 . Determine the total normalized area according to a first weight value corresponding to the first region, a second weight value corresponding to the second region, the first normalized area and the second normalized area. 
     After determining the first normalized area ι(a) and the second normalized area ι(b), for example, determining, based on the above-described formula 3, the total normalized area ρ(a, b) according to the first weight value corresponding to the first region, the second weight value corresponding to the second region, the first normalized area and the second normalized area. 
     In the above formula 3, the first weight value is 0.5, and the second weight value is also 0.5. In an actual implementation process, the specific implementation of the first weight value and the second weight value may be selected and expanded according to actual needs, which is not particularly limited in this embodiment. 
     Understandably, the total normalized area ρ(a, b) in this embodiment may indicate, for example, the area correlation between the region a and the region b. 
     S 307 . Determine first object distribution information corresponding to the first region according to the first object set, where the first object distribution information is used to indicate distribution of objects under respective object categories in the first region. 
     After introducing the implementation of the total normalized area ρ(a, b) above, in the following, the implementation of determining the total object distribution information η(a, b) will be introduced in combination of S 307 -S 309 . 
     In a possible implementation, the total object distribution information η(a, b) may satisfy, for example, the following formula 5: 
       η( a,b )=0.5·δ( a )+0.5·δ( b )  Formula 5
 
     Among them, δ(a) represents the object distribution information corresponding to the region a, δ(b) represents the object distribution information corresponding to the region b. 
     Here is a brief introduction to the function category. Based on the above introduction, it may be determined that the POI in this embodiment represents an entity with geographic information in various types of physical world in the city, such as a store, a school, and a building, etc. 
     In this embodiment, the POI is denoted as p, the function category of a POI is denoted as γ (p), and the function category of a POI denoted as γ (p) represents a service content type of this geographic entity, for instance, the current POI may include a first elementary school, a second elementary school, and a third elementary school, all of which may be classified into a function category “school”; again, for instance, the current POI may include a store  1 , a store  2 , and a store  3 , all of which may be classified into a function category “store”. The classification of specific function categories may be selected according to actual needs, which is not particularly limited in this embodiment. 
     Based on the above-described content, the implementation of the object distribution information δ(r) of the region r may satisfy, for example, the following formula 6: 
       δ( r )=−Σ i∈F     r     z   i  log  z   i   ,F   r ={γ( p )| p∈r}   Formula 6
 
     Among them, F r  represents a function category set of the region r, z i  represents the frequency at which the function category i appears in the region r, and δ(r) represents the object distribution information of the region r, and δ(r) may be understood as, for example, entropy of distribution of function categories in the region r. 
     For example, the currently mentioned frequency at which the function category i appears in the region r may be understood with reference to  FIG. 4 . Assuming that the current function category includes school and store, the region r includes a school  1 , a school  2 , a school  3 , and a school  4 , that is, in the region r, the function category “school” appears 4 times in the region r, so the frequency at which the function category “school” appears in the region r may be, for example, 4. 
     Similarly, referring to  FIG. 4 , the region r includes a store  1 , a store  2 , a store  3 , a store  4 , and a store  5 , that is, in the region r, the function category “store” appears 5 times in the region r, then the frequency at which the function category “store” appears in the region r may be, for example, 5. 
     Based on the above introduction, it may be determined that, in order to determine the total object distribution information η(a, b), it is necessary to determine the first object distribution information δ(a) corresponding to the first region, and to determine the second object distribution information δ(b) corresponding to the second region. 
     In this embodiment, the first object distribution information corresponding to the first region may be determined according to the first object set, where the first object distribution information is used to indicate distribution of objects under respective object categories in the first region. 
     The object categories described here are the function categories mentioned above. In a possible implementation of determining the first object distribution information, it is possible to divide the first object set into at least one first sub-object set according to the object categories of objects in the first object set, where objects in each first sub-object set have the same object category. 
     Hereafter, taking the object being the point of interest as an example to introduce the specific implementation. Specifically, the first object set corresponding to the first region includes a plurality of points of interest, and the first object set may be divided to obtain at least one first sub-object set according to a respective object category (function category) corresponding to a respective point of interest, where the object categories of the objects in a respective first sub-object set are the same. 
     For instance, if the first object set of the first region currently includes a school  1 , a school  2 , a school  3 , a store  1  and a store  2 , and for example, the first object set may be divided into two first sub-object sets, which are a set Q{the school  1 , the school  2 , the school  3 } and a set P{the store  1 , the store  2 }, it is observed that the object category of the objects in the set Q is school, and the object category of the objects in the set P is store. 
     After that, determining a first frequency of the object category corresponding to each first sub-object set according to a quantity of objects in each first sub-object set. 
     Specifically, after dividing the first sub-object set, it is possible to determine the frequency of occurrence of a respective object category corresponding to a respective first sub-object set, for instance, following the above-described example, the first sub-object set Q and the first sub-object set P are currently determined, the quantity of objects included in the first sub-object set Q is 3, then it may be determined that the first frequency of the object category “school” corresponding to the first sub-object set Q is 3. Similarly, the quantity of objects included in the first sub-object set P is 2, and it may be determined that the first frequency of the object category “store” corresponding to the first sub-object set P is 2. 
     Understandably, the first frequency determined here actually corresponds to the frequency z i  at which the function category i appears in the region r, as described in the above formula 6. 
     In an actual implementation process, the specific implementation of the first frequency may be determined according to actual needs, which is not limited in this embodiment. 
     After that, the first object distribution information is determined according to the first frequency of the object category corresponding to each first sub-object set. 
     After determining the first frequency of the object category corresponding to each first sub-object set, for example, after obtaining the frequency z i  described in the above formula 6, then for example, it is possible to substitute the first frequency of the object category corresponding to each first sub-object set z i  into the above formula 6, so as to determine the first object distribution information δ(a). 
     S 308 . Determine second object distribution information corresponding to the second region according to the second object set, where the second object distribution information is used to indicate distribution of objects under respective object categories in the second region. 
     The implementation of determining the second object distribution information δ(b) corresponding to the second region in S 308  is similar to that described above, and the second object distribution information may also be determined according to the following implementation: 
     dividing the second object set into at least one second sub-object set according to object categories of objects in the second object set, where objects in each second sub-object set have the same object category; 
     determining a second frequency of an object category corresponding to each second sub-object set according to a quantity of the objects in each second sub-object set; and 
     determining the second object distribution information according to the second frequency of the object category corresponding to each second sub-object set. 
     For detailed implementation, reference may be made to the implementation of determining the first object distribution information described in the above S 307 , which is not described in detail here. 
     S 309 . Determine the total object distribution information according to the first object distribution information and the second object distribution information. 
     After obtaining the first object distribution information corresponding to the first region and the second object distribution information corresponding to the second region, it is possible to determine the total object distribution information according to the first object distribution information and the second object distribution information. 
     In a possible implementation, for example, the first object distribution information δ(a) and the second object distribution information δ(b) may be processed according to the above-described formula 5, so as to obtain the total object distribution information η(a, b). 
     Understandably, 0.5 in the above formula 5 is also a weight value. In the actual implementation process, the weight value before the first object distribution information and the weight value before the second object distribution information may be selected according to actual needs, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment. 
     Understandably, the total object distribution information determined in this embodiment actually indicates the correlation between the first region and the second region in terms of function diversity. 
     S 310 . Determine spatial dependency information according to the total normalized area, the total object distribution information and the first distance. 
     After execution of the above steps is completed, the total normalized area ρ(a, b) of the first region and the second region, and the total object distribution information η(a, b) of the first region and the second region are obtained, after that, the spatial dependency information may be determined according to the total normalized area, the total object distribution information and the first distance. 
     In a possible implementation, for example, the power law attenuation degree α(a, b) may be determined firstly according to the formula 2 described above. 
     Secondly, according to the above-described formula 1, the spatial dependency information ζ(a, b) of the first region and the second region is determined according to the power law attenuation degree α(a, b) and the distance d(a, b). 
     Thus, the introduction of the spatial dependency information ζ(a, b) between the first region and the second region in the embodiments of the present disclosure is completed. 
     Based on the above introduction, it is worth noting here that the power law attenuation degree α(a, b) determined in this embodiment is actually a description of the attenuation degree of the distance from the perspective of the area of the region as well as the perspective of the function distribution diversity of the region, that is, if at least one of the two regions is large, or functional facilities thereof are perfect, then the distance attenuation between the two regions will be slower, otherwise the attenuation will be faster. 
     S 311 . Determine at least one first object category existing in the first object set and a first category quantity of the at least one first object category. 
     After introducing the implementation of the spatial dependency information ζ(a, b) above, the implementation of the object dependency information will be described below in conjunction with S 311 -S 314 . 
     In a possible implementation, the implementation of the object dependency information may satisfy, for example, the following formula 7:

     Among them, |Γ a | represents the quantity of function categories included in the region a, |Γ b | represents the quantity of function categories included in the region b, κ i→j  represents attraction of a function category i to a function category j, κ j→i  represents attraction of the function category j to the function category i, ψ(i,j) represents the dependency relationship of function category i to function category j, and ψ(j,i) represents a dependency relationship of the function category j to the function category i, μ(a, b) is the object dependency information between the region a and the region b. 
     Therefore, in this embodiment, in order to determine the object dependency information μ(a, b), it is necessary to determine the quantity of object categories included in the first region, and the quantity of object categories included in the second region, and the object relationship between the first object category and the second object category (including the above-described attraction and dependency relationship). 
     Therefore, in this embodiment, at least one first object category existing in the first object set and the first category quantity of the at least one first object category may be determined. 
     For example, the object categories of the objects in the first object set may be determined respectively, so as to determine the at least one first object category, and then determine the first category quantity of the at least one first object category, where the first category quantity may correspond to |Γ a | in the above formula 7. 
     S 312 . Determine at least one second object category existing in the second object set and a second category quantity of the at least one second object category. 
     In this embodiment, the at least one second object category existing in the second object set and the second category quantity of the at least one second object category may be determined. 
     For example, the object categories of the objects in the second object set may be determined respectively, so as to determine the at least one second object category, and then determine the second category quantity of the at least one second object category, where the second category quantity may correspond to I bI in the above formula 7. 
     S 313 . Determine an object relationship between the at least one first object category and the at least one second object category in a total region, where the total region includes the first region and the second region. 
     In this embodiment, the first region and the second region belong to a total region. The total region mentioned here may be, for example, the city region described in the above embodiments, that is, the first region and the second region belong to the same city region. 
     After that, the object relationship between the at least one first object category and the at least one second object category in the total region may be determined. The object relationship in this embodiment may include the following content: 
     first attraction of each first object category to each second object category, which may be understood as κ i→j  in the above formula 7; 
     second attraction of each second object category to each first object category, which may be understood as κ j→i  in the above formula 7; 
     a first dependency relationship of each first object category to each second object category, which may be understood as ψ(i,j) in the above formula 7; 
     a second dependency relationship of each second object category to each first object category, which may be understood as ψ(j,i) in the above formula 7. 
     In a possible implementation, the attraction between the function categories included and the dependency relationship between the function categories in the object relationship actually have nothing to do with the division of the regions, but simply depend on specific types of the function categories. Therefore, for example, the above-described corresponding relationship may be determined in advance, the relevant object relationship may thus be acquired directly when determining the object dependency relationship between the first region and the second region. 
     In a possible implementation, the corresponding relationship in this embodiment may be, for example, a matrix implementation. For example, the object relationship in this embodiment may be understood with reference to  FIG. 5 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 5 , assuming that the total quantity of current function categories is L, for example, for these L function categories, a matrix indicating the corresponding relationship may be established in advance, and the matrix includes the attraction and dependency relationship of the function categories between each other. 
     For instance, in the matrix shown in  FIG. 5 , a matrix element corresponding to (γ 1 , γ 2 ) may include attraction between a function category  1  and a function category  2 , as well as a dependency relationship between the function category  1  and the function category  2 , the implementation of the other function categories is similar. In addition to the matrix implementation described here, the object relationship may also be implemented in other ways, as long as the object relationships include the attraction and dependency relationships between the categories, the specific implementation may be selected and expanded according to actual needs. 
     S 314 . Determine the object dependency information according to the first category quantity, the second category quantity, and the object relationship. 
     After determining the first category quantity, the second category quantity, and the object relationship based on the above-described content, for example, it is possible to determine the object dependency relationship μ(a, b) in conjunction with the above-described formula 7. 
     S 315 . Determine the symbiosis between the first region and the second region according to the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information. 
     After obtaining the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information, it is possible to determine the symbiosis between the first region and the second region according to the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information. In a possible implementation, the symbiosis may satisfy, for example, the following formula 8:

     determining a target location corresponding to a target object in the first region and the second region, where the target object is an object to be added in the first region and/or the second region, this operation may be understood as, for example, recommendation of site selection for an object, etc. 
     Moreover, in the actual implementation process, in addition to implement the operations described above according to the symbiosis, operations such as comprehensive urban governance may also be performed, which is not limited in this embodiment, and may be selected according to actual needs. 
     Further, after obtaining the symbiosis between the first region and the second region, for example, in a specific scenario, it is possible to display the symbiosis between the first region and the second region on a display device; or, it is possible to send the symbiosis between the first region and the second region to a target device; or, it is possible to perform the above operations on the first region and the second region according to the symbiosis. The specific implementation after obtaining the symbiosis is not limited in this embodiment, which may be selected according to actual needs. 
     In the region information processing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, a symbiosis between a first region and a second region is determined through the above-described steps, specifically, multi-dimensional information such as the distance, the comparison of areas, and the comparison of functional distributions between the first region and the second region are taken into account, thereby determining the symbiosis between the first region and the second region, specifically, the symbiotic level between regions is positively correlated with the distance, the closer the distance, the higher the symbiotic level, however, the attenuation of the symbiotic level should not be linear. As the distance increases, the attenuation of the symbiotic level should become slower and slower. Secondly, there is also a certain correlation between the strength of the symbiosis between regions and whether there exists a complementary relationship between regions, therefore, the symbiosis between the first region and the second region may be determined accurately and effectively according to the spatial dependency information and the object dependency information. 
     On the basis of the above-described embodiments, the implementation of the attraction and dependency relationship in the above-described object relationship will be described below.

     In this embodiment, an implementation of determining the first attraction of each first object category to each second object category is described, an implementation of determining the second attraction of each second object category to each first object category is similar, which is not described in detail here. 
     Therefore, according to the region information processing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the attraction between function categories may be determined accurately and effectively based on the above-described process. 
     An implementation of determining the dependency relationship between function categories is described below with reference to  FIG. 7 .  FIG. 7  is a fourth flowchart of a region information processing method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     As shown in  FIG. 7 , the method includes: 
     S 701 . Determine a data map corresponding to each first object category and each second object category according to a supply relationship between each first object category and each second object category, where the data map includes a node set and a directed edge set, the node set includes each first object category and each second object category, and the directed edge set includes a directed edge between at least one first object category and at least one second object category. 
     In this embodiment, the supply relationship between each first object category and each second object category may indicate, for example, an upstream and downstream relationship between various object categories in the sense of the industrial chain. Here, an example is taken for illustrating the supply relationship, for instance, there is currently an object category of “store”, and there is another object category of “building material market”. Some containers, furniture or the like are required for normal running of the “store”, so there is a supply relationship between the object category of “building material market” and the object category of “store”, and the “building materials market” may be understood as the upstream of the “store”. 
     Therefore, in this embodiment, the data maps corresponding to each first objection category and each second object category may be obtained by analyzing whether there exists the upstream and downstream relationship (that is, the supply relationship in this embodiment) in the sense of the industrial chain between function categories of different POIs, the data map here may also be understood as a supply relationship graph, which may be expressed as  ={ , }. Understandably, the data map here refers to a “graph” as a data structure. 
     In the data map, a node set   is included, and function categories are included in the node set  , that is, each first object category and each second object category are included;   represents a directed edge set, and the directed edge set includes a directed edge between at least one first object category and at least one second object category, for instance, there is a directed edge between a function category i and a function category j, expressed as: i→j∈ , then from a perspective of industrial supply chain, identifying the function category i to be the upstream of the function category j. 
     S 702 . Obtain the first dependency relationship of each first object category to each second object category by processing the directed edge set using a preset algorithm. 
     After obtaining the directed edge set in the above-described data map, it is possible to process the directed edge set through a preset algorithm. 
     Where the preset algorithm may be, for example, a PageRank (PageRank) algorithm, the accessibility from the function category i to the function category j may be obtained by the PageRank algorithm, that is, the dependency relationship described in this embodiment. Understandably, the dependency relationship described in this embodiment may indicate the closeness of the dependency between the object categories. 
     Where the implementation of processing using the preset algorithm may satisfy, for example, the following formula 10:

                       ) 
                     
                   
                   =

     Among them, PageRank ( ) represents the PageRank algorithm, i→j∈ ( ) represents the directed edge between the function category i and the function category j, and ψ(i,j) is the dependency relationship of the function category i to the function category j. 
     In this embodiment, an implementation of determining the first dependency relationship of each first object category to each second object category is described, an implementation of determining the second dependency relationship of each second object category to each first object category is similar, which is not described in detail here. 
     Therefore, according to the region information processing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the dependency relationship between function categories may be determined accurately and effectively based on the above-described process. 
     On the basis of the above-described embodiments, an implementation of the region information processing method provided by the present disclosure will be further systematically illustrated below with reference to  FIG. 8 .  FIG. 8  is a schematic flowchart of a region information processing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure. 
     As shown in  FIG. 8 , for example, POI data, a region set in a city, and a dictionary of upstream and downstream relationships in the industrial chain may be obtained, the POI data includes data of each POI currently in the city, and the region set includes pre-divided smaller regions of the city, for instance, communities, parks, blocks, etc. 
     After that, based on the region set, the POI data may be allocated to their corresponding regions according to their geographic location information, so that respective POIs corresponding to respective regions (that is, the object sets described in the above embodiment) are obtained. 
     Alternatively, in addition to the allocation method currently described, the respective POIs included in respective regions within the range of respective regions may be directly acquired, so that the respective object sets corresponding to the respective regions are obtained. This implementation is also possible, which is not limited in this embodiment. 
     After that, according to the POI set contained in each region, the κ (Kappa) value between different object categories at the city granularity may be obtained to obtain the Kappa matrix of the city at the moment. The Kappa matrix here is the attraction matrix shown in  FIG. 8 , the attraction (κ i→j ) between respective object categories is included in the Kappa matrix. 
     The POI data and the dictionary of upstream and downstream relationships of the industrial chain may be used as an input of the preset algorithm to calculate the closeness of the supply relationship between different object categories, thereby obtaining the city function PageRank matrix. The PageRank matrix here is the dependency relationship matrix shown in  FIG. 8 , the dependency relationships (ψ(i,j)) between respective object categories are included in the PageRank matrix. 
     After that, the attraction matrix (Kappa matrix) and the dependency relationship matrix (PageRank matrix) may be combined to obtain the region information pair matrix shown in  FIG. 8 , which corresponds to the object relationship described in the above embodiment. For each element in the region information pair matrix, the attraction and dependency relationship between two function categories are included. 
     It is worth nothing that, in this embodiment, since the region information pair matrix is determined in advance, the region information pair matrix includes the attraction and dependency relationship between any two function categories, therefore, when determining the symbiosis between any two regions subsequently, the corresponding relationship information may be directly acquired from the matrix without real-time calculation, thereby effectively saving the calculation workload and improving the efficiency and speed of determining the symbiosis. 
     Referring to  FIG. 8 , in this embodiment, the region function and region area of each region may be normalized according to the region set and the POI data included in each region set to obtain a region attribute set, the region attribute set actually corresponds to the total normalized area and the total object distribution information described in the above embodiment. 
     Then, according to the above-described region information pair matrix and the region attribute set may be input into a symbiotic level calculating unit for parallel processing, so as to obtain a symbiotic level index between any two regions in the city, which is the symbiosis described in the above embodiment. 
     In summary, in the region information processing method provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the quantification of the symbiosis between different regions is realized accurately and effectively by taking the distance relationship and functional complementarity into account.
