Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

Example Interface

FIG. 2A to FIG. 2D illustrate example interfaces in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure. The interfaces of FIG. 2A to FIG. 2D may be provided, for example, by the terminal device 110 shown in FIG. 1. For ease of description, embodiments of the present disclosure are described below with books as examples of works, but it should be understood that this is for convenience of description only. As discussed above, a work may include a text type work such as an electronic book or an article, or a media type work such as an audiobook or a video.

As shown in FIG. 2A, the terminal device 110 associated with the creator (e.g., the creator of the book) may present the interface 200A shown in FIG. 2A for the creator. Such an interface 200A may, for example, be referred to as a new book guidance page for configuring unreleased books.

In some embodiments, the terminal device 110 may provide an interface 200A for configuring the unreleased book for the creator only when the created content of the current book of the creator exceeds a threshold. For example, taking FIG. 2A as an example, the terminal device 110 may provide the interface 200A shown in FIG. 2A for the creator to guide the creator to configure the new book when the number of words “book A” currently updated by the creator exceeds the threshold number.

For example, as shown in FIG. 2A, the terminal device 110 may present a book 205 (also referred to as a target book, for example, book A) that has been released by the creator, to prompt that the related content of the created new book is presented in association with the book 205.

In some embodiments, the book 205 is selected from, for example, released books by a creator. Alternatively, the book 205 may be determined from a set of books that have been released by the creator based on a predetermined condition, and the predetermined condition includes a completion status of the book and/or an amount of content that has been created for the book. For example, a book having an amount of created content greater than a threshold and still in an updating status may be selected as the target book.

In some embodiments, the terminal device 110 may further provide a modification control 210 for selecting a book from the released books by the creator for associatively presenting related content of the new book that has not been created.

In some embodiments, the terminal device 110 may provide a selection control 215 in the interface 200A for selecting one book from the unreleased books by the creator. For example, the creator may have created but not yet release a set of books, and accordingly, the creator may select an unreleased book to be presented in association with the released book 205 from the set of books through selecting the control 215.

In some embodiments, the terminal device 110 may further provide a creation control 215 in the interface 200A. After receiving the selection of the creation control 215, the terminal device 110 may, for example, present the interface 200B shown in FIG. 2B. The interface 200B may also be referred to as a new book guidance page.

As shown in FIG. 2B, the terminal device 110 may provide, in the interface 200B, an input control 225 and/or an input control 230 for inputting description information of a not created book. The input control 225 may be used to receive an input of the creator about the book name of the book. Input controls 230 may be used to receive an input of a creator about a summary or introduction of the book. The book name and/or summary input by the creator may constitute the description information of the book.

In some embodiments, the creator may also edit such description information at a subsequent stage, for example. For example, the creator may modify the book name and/or summary of the book during the creation of the book.

As another example, for an example mentioned above for selecting one book from the created books, the description information of the book may be automatically determined, for example, based on the created content of the book, or the description information of the book may also direct the creator to perform editing and/or confirmation.

In some embodiments, in a scenario where the creator selects the release control 235, the terminal device 110 may control at least a portion of the description information associated with the unreleased new book to be presented in the viewing interface of the book 205.

FIG. 2C illustrates a viewing interface 200C of the book 205. Such a viewing interface 200C may, for example, be presented by a terminal device 110 associated with an creator and/or a reader-user.

As shown in FIG. 2C, the interface 200C may be used to obtain content of the book 205. In addition, the interface 200C may also include a target component 240 associated with the selected new book and/or the created new book (e.g., book B).

In some embodiments, the target component 240 may be presented in the viewing interface 200C of the most recently released content of the book 205. For example, the target component 240 may be presented at the end of the latest chapter of the book 205. Further, as shown in FIG. 2C, the target component 240 may be used to present at least

part 245 of the description information of the selected new book and/or the created new book (e.g., book B). For example, the target component 240 may present the name and/or summary of the new book.

Further, the target component 240 may include, for example, a reminder control 250. The reminder control 250 may, for example, be used to provide a creation reminder associated with the new book to the creator. For example, the reader-user may trigger sending a reminder for urging the creator to release a new book by clicking the reminder control 250. Such a creation reminder may also be indicated, for example, by the number of reminders presented in the reminder control 250, which may represent, for example, the number of times the reminder control 250 is selected by the reader-user, or the user number of the reader-user who clicked the reminder control 250.

Additionally, the target component 240 may also include, for example, a subscription control 250 for subscribing to the unreleased new book. For example, in a scenario where the reader-user clicks the subscription control 255, if the new book is published, then the new book may be automatically added to the book list associated with the reader-user. The book list may include a set of released books added by the reader-user, taking the scenario of electronic books as an example, the book list may also be referred to as a “bookshelf”. Similar to the reminder control 250, the subscription control 255 may also indicate, for example, the user number of the reader user who have subscribed to the of the new book.

Using FIG. 2D as an example, interface 200C shows an interface associated with the reader-user. In a scenario where the reader-user subscribed to the new book 265 through the subscription control 255, if the new book 265 is released, the new book may be automatically added to the reader-user's bookshelf 260, for example, to facilitate the reader-user to more quickly obtain the new book 265.

Based on such a manner, the embodiments of the present disclosure can support the creator associated with the released book to share a unreleased new book, thereby improving the creation enthusiasm of the creator. In addition, such manner can also facilitate the user to more efficiently obtain the new book of the creator.

In some embodiments, the terminal device 110 may also provide, for example, an interface for the creator to attach to the book creation, to provide a creation idea for the creator. FIG. 3A illustrates an example interface 300A, in accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure.

As shown in FIG. 3A, the terminal device 110 may present at least one keyword 310 (also referred to as a first set of keywords) to the creator in the creation guidance interface 300A. Such a first set of keywords 310 may be associated with an creation theme of a book, which may also be referred to as a “hot word”, for example.

In some embodiments, the first set of keywords 310 may be determined based on a set of topic contents associated with the book content. Such topic content may include any suitable topic discussing a book, such as a topic associated with finding the book.

In some embodiments, a set of topic contents associated with the book content may be obtained by an appropriate electronic device (e.g., the server 130 shown in FIG. 1), and keyword associated with the creation theme of the book is determined accordingly.

For example, the server 130 may perform word segmentation processing on a set of topic content to obtain a set of candidate keyword. Further, the server 130 may remove at least one noise word from the set of candidate keywords based on a relevance between the set of candidate keywords and the creation theme of the book.

In some embodiments, the server 130 may obtain a predetermined set of noise words, the set of noise words comprising a plurality of keywords indicated to be irrelevant to the creation theme of the book. For example, such a set of noise words may include keyword that are irrelevant to the creation theme of the book, such as “beg” “high score,” and the like.

Further, the server 130 may remove the at least one noise word from the set of candidate keywords that matches the set of noise words. For example, the server may perform filtering of particular noise words to exclude keywords (e.g., “beg” “high scores” etc.) that are not helpful to creation from the set of candidate keywords.

Further, the server 130 may, for example, determine the first set of keywords 310 for assisting in the creation based on a frequency of the set of candidate keywords after removal. For example, the server 130 may determine a predetermined number of keyword with the highest frequency as the first set of keywords 310.

Further, the terminal device 110 may also present the second set of keywords 315 associated with the keyword 310 in association with the first set of keywords 310. Such a second set of keyword words 315 may also be referred to as secondary words, which may likewise be determined based on topic content associated with the book content.

Specifically, the server 130 may extract a second set of keywords 315 associated with the keyword 310 from a plurality of topic contents that matches the keyword 310 (for example, the “hot word 1”), wherein a frequency of co-occurrence of the keyword 310 and the second set of keywords 315 in the plurality of topic contents is higher than a threshold.

For example, the server 130 performs a word segmentation processing on a plurality of topic contents corresponding to a specific keyword 310 (for example, “hot word 1”) to determine a plurality of keywords. Further, the server 130 may determine the second set of keywords 315 associated with the particular keyword 310 based on a frequency at which the plurality of keywords co-occur with the keyword 310.

It should be understood that other appropriate text analysis techniques besides the word segmentation processing may also be used to determine the first set of keywords and the second set of keywords from the topic content associated with the book requirement.

Further, in a scenario where the creator selects the keyword 310 (for example, the hot word 1), the terminal device 110 may further present the interface 300B shown in FIG. 3B.

In the interface 300B, the terminal device 110 may present the popularity information 320 associated with the selected keyword 310. In some embodiments, the popularity information 320 may indicate a change of the popularity of the keyword 310 over a predetermined period.

In some embodiments, the server 130 may, for example, determine the popularity of the keyword 310, with the interaction information of the set of topic contents associated with the keyword 310. For example, such interaction information may include a number of following posts, a number of comments, a number of shares, a number of views of the topic content and the like.

Therefore, the embodiment of the present disclosure can further help the creator know the popularity change of the keyword, so that the creator can conveniently determine the direction of the creation.

In some embodiments, the terminal device 110 may also present the released book 335 associated with the keyword 310 at the creation guidance interface 300B. For example, the terminal device 110 may present other books under the keyword 310 for reference by the creator.

Additionally, the terminal device 110 may also provide topic information 330 corresponding to the keyword 310 and/or the keyword 315 in the creation guidance interface 300B, so that the topic information may be used to indicate topic content matching the keyword 310 and/or the keyword 315.

For example, the topic information 330 may include a title of at least one topic content that matches the keyword 310.

Alternatively or additionally, such topic information 330 may include interaction information of at least one topic content that matches the keyword 310. For example, such interaction information may include participation popularity, a number of participants, a number of following posts, a number of comments, a number of forwarding of the corresponding topic content, and the like.

Alternatively, or additionally, such topic information 330 may also include a picture associated with at least the impact topic content. Such a picture may include, for example, an illustration of the topic content, or a picture of the section to which the topic content belongs, and so on.

Further, the creator may view the topic content associated with the keyword 315 by selecting the keyword 315.

Alternatively, or additionally, the creator may also jump the viewing interface of the topic content corresponding to the topic information 330 by clicking the topic information 330, for example. For example, the creator may browse all the following posts of the corresponding topic content by clicking on the topic information 330.

In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 3B, the terminal device 110 may further provide a portal 325 in the interface 300B. Upon receiving the selection of the portal 325, the terminal device 110 may provide an interface for the creator to create or release a new book. Further, the new book may be generated based on the interaction of the creator, and in addition, the new book may also be automatically marked as being associated with the selected keyword 310 (e.g., the hot word 1).

In some embodiments, in the scenario where the creator selects the keyword 310 and further creates a new book, the terminal device 110 may, for example, also present the new book guidance interface 200B discussed with reference to FIG. 2B. Further, the terminal device 110 and/or the server 130 may also automatically determine the description information of the book to be released according to the selected keyword 310. For example, the terminal device 110 may automatically add the description content corresponding to the selected keyword 310 in the input control 230.

Through the creation guidance interface introduced above, the embodiments of the present disclosure can provide the creator with the keyword for assisting in creation of the book, and can help the creator know the popularity change of such keyword, thereby better assisting in the creation of the book for the creator.

It should be understood that the specific interface layout, the specific text content, and the specific value shown in the above examples are merely illustrative, and are not intended to constitute a limitation on the present disclosure.
