This is a continuation application of International Patent Application No. PCT/CN2016/071438, filed on Jan. 20, 2016, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201510027023.6 filed on Jan. 20, 2015, both disclosures being incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
Development of Internet technology brings about increasingly wide application of Internet, with increasingly powerful functions. One may install an instant messaging application (such as WeChat and MOMO) on a terminal and communicate with other users, by sending information such as text, a voice, a picture, for example, over the Internet through the instant messaging application.
To allow more vivid communication between users, various types of recommended information, such as an emoticon, a video, or an audio, may be set in an instant messaging application. While a user is inputting communication information in a communication window of a terminal, a pop-up (window) of recommended information corresponding to the input communication information may be displayed automatically in the communication window if the terminal detects that the recommended information is stored locally at the terminal. For example, when the user inputs a word “smile” in a message input box, the terminal may display a pop-up of multiple emoticons corresponding to the word “smile” in the communication window, such that the user may select an emoticon from the pop-up and include the selected emoticon in content of a message that is being edited.
The following technical problems may emerge with the existing art.
Whenever a user inputs a word corresponding to a certain type of recommended information, a pop-up of the recommended information may be automatically displayed in a communication window. However, the user usually may not need to include information such as an emoticon in a dialogue when communicating with a certain user, such as a boss or a teacher, in which case the pop-up may block part of the communication window, leading to a narrowed range readable to the user in the communication window, such that less information may be read, leading to inefficient information acquisition.

To clearly show a technical problem to be solved, a technical solution, and beneficial effects of the present disclosure, the present disclosure is further elaborated below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.
A method for managing information recommendation may be implemented by a server and a terminal.
As shown in
In step 101, an inquiry for information recommendation sent by a terminal is received. The inquiry for information recommendation may include an account identification of a target communication account.
In step 102, it is determined whether account information corresponding to the account identification of the target communication account includes a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation.
In step 103, if the account information includes the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, a notification to disable recommendation is sent to the terminal, such that the terminal disables, while communication information is being input in a communication window corresponding to the target communication account, a pop-up of recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window.
As shown in
In step 201, an instruction to start a communication window corresponding to a target communication account is received.
In step 202, an inquiry for information recommendation including an account identification of the target communication account is sent to a server, such that the server returns a notification to disable recommendation if account information corresponding to the account identification of the target communication account includes a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation.
In step 203, in response to receiving the notification to disable recommendation returned by the server, while communication information is being input in the communication window, a pop-up of recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window is disabled.
With the embodiment herein, an inquiry for information recommendation sent by a terminal is received; the inquiry for information recommendation may include an account identification of a target communication account; it is determined whether account information corresponding to the account identification of the target communication account includes a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation; if the account information includes the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, a notification to disable recommendation is sent to the terminal, such that the terminal disables, while communication information is being input in a communication window corresponding to the target communication account, a pop-up of recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window. Thus, when the account information corresponding to the target communication account includes the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the terminal may disable, during communication between a user and the target communication account, the pop-up of the recommended information, such that no information in the communication window will be blocked, thereby improving efficiency in information acquisition.
A method for managing information recommendation may be implemented by a server and a terminal. The terminal may be installed with an instant messaging application, and may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or the like, for example. The server may be a background server of a certain instant messaging application.
A processing flow as shown in
In step 301, a terminal receives an instruction to start a communication window corresponding to a target communication account.
A user may install an application with a communication function (such as a certain instant messaging application) in the terminal. To communicate with another user, the user may start the application in the terminal, log on to an account of the user, and click on an icon of a friend account, i.e., the account of a friend, with whom the user is to communicate (namely, the target communication account), in a list of friends. The terminal may receive an instruction to start a communication window corresponding to the target communication account and display the communication window corresponding to the target communication account. The user may input communication information, such as text or a picture, in an input box of the communication window. The information input by the user may be displayed in the communication window. Information sent to the user by the target communication account may also be displayed in the communication window.
Optionally, after receiving the instruction to start the communication window, the terminal may further acquire account information of the target communication account from the list of friends stored locally at the terminal and determine whether the account information includes a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation. If the account information includes the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, while the communication information is being input in the communication window, a pop-up of recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window may be disabled. If the account information includes no pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the flow may continue to execute a subsequent step.
The account information of the target communication account may include an account name of the target communication account, and may further include remarks on the target communication account previously made by the login account of the terminal, etc. The account information of the target communication account may all be stored in the list of friends of the started application. The list of friends may be located in a memory local to the terminal.
The terminal may receive in advance the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation sent by the server. The terminal may store a received keyword locally. The terminal may receive, regularly or from time to time, a keyword to disable recommendation sent by the server and update a locally stored keyword with a received keyword accordingly. The pre-set keyword to disable recommendation may further be pre-set in the terminal by the user and stored locally at the terminal. The pre-set keyword to disable recommendation may include teacher, supervisor, director, director general, work, and/or the like. The user may set the account name of one or more friends as a keyword to disable recommendation.
In step 302, the terminal sends a server an inquiry for information recommendation including an account identification of the target communication account.
After receiving the instruction to start the communication window corresponding to the target communication account, the terminal may acquire the account identification of the target communication account. The terminal may include the account identification of the target communication account in the inquiry for information recommendation. The terminal may then send the inquiry for information recommendation to the server. Whenever receiving an instruction to start the communication window corresponding to the target communication account, the terminal may send the server the inquiry for information recommendation including the account identification of the target communication account. Alternatively, the terminal may send the inquiry for information recommendation to the server the first time receiving the instruction to start the communication window corresponding to the target communication account, and then send the inquiry for information recommendation to the server when detecting that the remarks on the target communication account are modified by the login account of the terminal or when there is a change in the account name of the target communication account.
Optionally, the inquiry for information recommendation may further include an account identification of the login account of the terminal.
In step 303, the server receives the inquiry for information recommendation including the account identification of the target communication account sent by the terminal.
After the terminal sends the server the inquiry for information recommendation including the account identification of the target communication account, the server may receive the inquiry for information recommendation, and may then analyze the inquiry for information recommendation to acquire the account identification of the target communication target therein for subsequent processing.
In step 304, the server determines whether account information corresponding to the account identification of the target communication account includes a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation.
The account information may include information such as the account name of the target communication account and the remarks on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal.
A keyword to disable recommendation, such as teacher, supervisor, director, director general, work, and/or the like, may be pre-set in the server. After acquiring the account identification of the target communication account, the server may acquire the account information corresponding to the account identification of the target communication account and then determine whether the account information matches a keyword to disable recommendation to determine whether the account information includes a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation. For example, the server may determine that the account name of the target communication account is “light and heat” and the remarks on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal are “Director General Li.” The server may then determine that the account information of the target communication account includes a keyword to disable recommendation, i.e., “director general.”
Optionally, the matching may be performed only on information in the remarks in the account information corresponding to the target communication account to see if there is a hit of a keyword to disable recommendation. Correspondingly, step 304 may be implemented as follows. It may be determined whether the remarks on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal include a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation.
After acquiring the account identification of the target communication account, the server may acquire the remarks on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal and then determine whether the remarks include a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation by determining whether the remarks match the keyword to disable recommendation.
Note that when the user includes the target communication account in his/her list of friends, the terminal may send the server the account identification of the login account of the terminal as well as the account identification and account information of the target communication account. The account information may include the account name of the target communication account. If the user has remarked on the target communication account, the account information may further include the remarks. The server may receive the account identification of the login account of the terminal as well as the account identification and account information of the target communication account. The server may store the received information correspondingly.
Optionally, the server may acquire the remarks on the target communication account made by the login account of the terminal as follows.
The server may acquire, from the account identification of the login account and the account identification and account information of the target communication account stored correspondingly, the account information corresponding to the account identification of the login account of the terminal and the account identification of the target communication account included in the inquiry for information recommendation. The server may extract, from the acquired account information, the remarks on the target communication account made by the login account of the terminal.
Optionally, if there is no remark on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal to disable recommendation, among friend accounts of the target communication account, a first number of friend accounts with remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation may be determined.
After the account identification of the target communication account is acquired, if no remark to disable recommendation is found according to the account identification of the target communication account, the server may acquire the friend accounts of the target communication account, and then acquire remarks on the target communication account made by the friend accounts of the target communication account. The server may then determine, among the friend accounts of the target communication account, a number of accounts with remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation (namely, the first number), by determining whether the remarks match a keyword to disable recommendation. Alternatively, if there is no remark on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal to disable recommendation, the server may determine, among friend accounts of the login account of the terminal, the first number as a number of friend accounts with remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation.
Optionally, remarks on the target communication account made by a friend account of the target communication account may be acquired as follows.
The server may acquire a list of friends of the target communication account, acquire, from the list of friends, an account identification of the friend account of the target communication account, and take the account identification of the friend account as that of a login account. The server may then acquire, from the account identification of the login account and the account identification and account information of the target communication account stored correspondingly, account information corresponding to the target communication account with the friend account as a login account. The server may extract, from the acquired account information, the remarks on the target communication account made by the friend account.
Optionally, if there is no remark on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal to disable recommendation and that the target communication account and the login account of the terminal belong to no same communication group, among the friend accounts of the target communication account, the first number of friend accounts with the remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation may be determined.
The inquiry for information recommendation sent by the terminal may further include, in addition to the account identification of the target communication account, the account identification of the login account of the terminal. After the account identification of the target communication account is acquired, if no remark to disable recommendation is found according to the account identification of the target communication account, the server may find out whether there is a communication group to which both the login account of the terminal and the target communication account belong. If the target communication account and the login account of the terminal belong to no same communication group, the server may determine, among the friend accounts of the target communication account, the first number of friend accounts with the remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation.
Optionally, if there is no remark on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal to disable recommendation and that both the target communication account and the login account of the terminal belong to a communication group, among accounts belonging to the communication group, a second number of accounts with remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation may be determined.
After the account identification of the target communication account is acquired, if no remark to disable recommendation is found according to the account identification of the target communication account, the server may find out whether there is a communication group to which both the login account of the terminal and the target communication account belong. If the target communication account and the login account of the terminal belong to one communication group, the server may acquire all accounts belonging to the communication group, and acquire remarks on the target communication account made by such accounts. The server may then determine, among all accounts belonging to the communication group, the second number as a number of accounts with remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, by determining whether the remarks match the keyword to disable recommendation.
The remarks on the target communication account made by any account belong to the communication group may be acquired in a similar way as how the remarks on the target communication account made by a friend account of the target communication account are acquired, as described, which will not be repeated.
Optionally, the account information of the target communication account as stored in the server may be identical to that stored locally at the terminal. The terminal may determine that the locally stored account information includes no pre-set keyword to disable recommendation. In this case, after receiving the inquiry for information recommendation, the server may skip determining whether the account information of the target communication account includes a keyword to disable recommendation, and go on to execute a step such as determining the first number or the second number, etc.
In step 305, if the account information includes the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the server sends the terminal a notification to disable recommendation.
If the account information matches a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the server may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation. If the account information includes no pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the server may send the terminal a notification to perform default recommendation.
Optionally, matching may be performed on the remarks in the account information corresponding to the target communication account. Correspondingly, step 305 may be implemented as follows. If the remarks on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal include a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the server may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation.
The server may acquire the remarks on the target communication account made by the login account of the terminal and determine whether the remarks match with a keyword to disable recommendation. If the remarks include a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the server may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation. If the remarks include no pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the server may send the terminal the notification to perform default recommendation.
Optionally, if the login account of the terminal has made no remark on the target communication account to disable recommendation, step 305 may be implemented as follows. If the first number is greater than a pre-set threshold, the server may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation.
After determining the first number, the server may compare the first number with the pre-set threshold, and may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation if the first number is greater than the pre-set threshold. The server may send the terminal the notification to perform default recommendation if the first number is no greater than the pre-set threshold. For example, if the pre-set threshold is 3 and the first number has been determined to be 6, the server may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation. In addition, the server may pre-set the threshold in percentage. The server may compute a percentage of friend accounts of the target communication account with remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation. For example, the pre-set threshold in percentage may be 40%, the target communication account may have a total number of 50 friend accounts, and the server may have determined a first number equal to 25. The server may then determine that the first number is 50% of the total number of the friend accounts of the target communication account, which percentage is greater than the pre-set threshold in percentage, 40%. The server may then send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation.
Optionally, if there is no remark on the target communication account made by the login account of the terminal to disable recommendation and that both the target communication account and the login account of the terminal belong to one communication group, step 305 may be implemented as follows. If the second number is greater than the pre-set threshold, the server may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation.
After determining the second number, the server may compare the second number with the pre-set threshold, and may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation if the second number is greater than the pre-set threshold. The server may send the terminal the notification to perform default recommendation if the second number is no greater than the pre-set threshold. For example, if the pre-set threshold is 3 and the second number has been determined to be 5, the server may send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation. In addition, the server may pre-set the threshold in percentage. The server may compute a percentage of accounts belonging to the communication group with remarks on the target communication account including a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation. For example, the pre-set threshold in percentage may be 40%, the communication group may include a total number of 20 accounts, and the server may have determined a second number equal to 9. The server may then determine that the second number is 45% of the total number of accounts belonging to the communication group, which percentage is greater than the pre-set threshold in percentage, 40%. The server may then send the terminal the notification to disable recommendation.
Optionally, the server may pre-set a keyword to enhance recommendation. If the account information includes no pre-set keyword to enhance recommendation and no pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the server may send the terminal a notification to perform default recommendation. The terminal may then enable, while the communication information is being input in the communication window corresponding to the target communication account, the pop-up of the recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window. An amount of the recommended information per display may be limited by a first pre-set amount. If the account information includes a pre-set keyword to enhance recommendation, the server may send the terminal a notification to enhance recommendation. The terminal may then enable, while the communication information is being input in the communication window corresponding to the target communication account, the pop-up of the recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window. The amount of the recommended information per display may be limited by a second pre-set amount.
The server may include a pre-set keyword to enhance recommendation, such as boyfriend, girlfriend, alumni, and community. After acquiring the account identification of the target communication account, the server may acquire the account information corresponding to the account identification of the target communication account. The server may then determine whether the account information includes a pre-set keyword to enhance recommendation or a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation by determining whether the account information matches the pre-set keyword to enhance recommendation or the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation. For example, the server may determine that the account name of the target communication account is “Lili” and the remarks on the target communication account made by the login account of the terminal are “stranger.” The server may then determine that the account information includes no pre-set keyword to enhance recommendation and no pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, and may send the terminal the notification to perform default recommendation.
The server may determine that the account name of the target communication account is “cup” and the remarks on the target communication account by the login account of the terminal are “girlfriend.” The server may then determine that the account information includes a pre-set keyword to enhance recommendation, i.e., “girlfriend,” and may send the terminal the notification to start/enable/enhance recommendation.
In step 306, in response to receiving the notification to disable recommendation sent by the server, the terminal disables, while communication information is being input in the communication window, a pop-up of recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window.
After sending the inquiry for information recommendation, the terminal may receive the notification to disable recommendation sent by the server. The terminal may disable, while the user is inputting communication information in the communication window corresponding to the target communication account, the pop-up of the recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window. As shown in
Optionally, in case that a keyword to enhance recommendation is pre-set in the server, in response to receiving the notification to perform default recommendation sent by the server, the terminal may enable, while the communication information is being input in the communication window, the pop-up of the recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window. An amount of the recommended information per display may be limited by a first pre-set amount. In response to receiving a notification to enhance recommendation sent by the server, the terminal may enable, while the communication information is being input in the communication window, the pop-up of the recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window. The amount of the recommended information per display may be limited by a second pre-set amount. The second pre-set amount may be greater than the first pre-set amount.
After sending the inquiry for information recommendation, the terminal may receive the notification to perform default recommendation sent by the server. The terminal may search, while the user is inputting communication information, for the recommended information corresponding to the input communication information and enable the pop-up of the recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window. The amount of the recommended information per display may have to be no greater than a system default upper limit, namely, the first pre-set amount, such as 1 emoticon, as shown in
In response to receiving the notification to enhance recommendation sent by the server, the terminal may search for the recommended information corresponding to the input communication information and then enable the pop-up of the recommended information in the communication window. The amount of the recommended information per display may have to be no greater than an enhanced amount, namely, the second pre-set amount, such as 4, as shown in
The terminal may periodically update locally stored recommended information and prioritize the pop-up of the most updated recommended information. The terminal may also prioritize the pop-up of recommended information most frequently selected by the user according to a record of selecting recommended information by the user. The terminal may also randomly select, from the recommended information, a pre-set amount of recommended information, and display the selected recommended information.
With the embodiment herein, an inquiry for information recommendation sent by a terminal is received; the inquiry for information recommendation may include an account identification of a target communication account; it is determined whether account information corresponding to the account identification of the target communication account includes a pre-set keyword to disable recommendation; if the account information includes the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, a notification to disable recommendation is sent to the terminal, such that the terminal disables, while communication information is being input in a communication window corresponding to the target communication account, a pop-up of recommended information corresponding to the input communication information in the communication window. Thus, when the account information corresponding to the target communication account includes the pre-set keyword to disable recommendation, the terminal may disable, during communication between a user and the target communication account, the pop-up of the recommended information, such that no information in the communication window will be blocked, thereby improving efficiency in information acquisition.
