A method and apparatus for acquiring point of interest (POI) state information are suggested, which relate to a big data technology in the technical field of artificial intelligence. A specific implementation scheme involves: acquiring a text including POI information within a preset period from the Internet; and recognizing the text by using a pre-trained POI state recognition model, to obtain a two-tuple in the text, the two-tuple including a POI name and POI state information corresponding to the POI name. The POI state recognition model acquires a vector representation of each first semantic unit in the text, and acquires a vector representation of each second semantic unit in the text based on semantic dependency information of the text; fuses the vector representation of each first semantic unit and the vector representation of each second semantic unit to obtain a fusion vector representation of each first semantic unit; and predicts labels of the POI name and a POI state based on the fusion vector representation of each first semantic unit.
