In order to more clearly illustrate the technical method of the embodiments of the present application, the accompanying drawings required for use in the embodiments are briefly described below.
The terms “first” and “second” in the embodiments of the present application are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined by “first” or “second” may explicitly or implicitly include one or more such features.
First, some technical terms involved in the embodiments of the present application are described.
With the continuous development of computer technology, office automation (OA), which combines computer technology and modern office, has emerged. The office automation can realize the automated processing of office procedures, greatly improving the work efficiency of individual or group office procedures.
Specifically, enterprises can use an OA system (such as a business platform or a business system) to assist in office work. The OA system usually includes a plurality of system modules that provide different functions, such as an instant messaging module, a form module, a task management module, a meeting module, and a schedule module.
The schedule module can be used to create and manage user schedules, so as to clearly and reasonably arrange the user schedules. In addition, the schedule module further supports viewing other users' schedules, so as to straightforwardly obtain other users' free time and improve collaboration efficiency.
During the creation of a schedule, a user may enter a plurality of schedule configuration items, such as a schedule subject, a schedule time, and a schedule participant, on a page provided by the schedule module, so as to create the schedule. However, the above method requires the user to enter the schedule configuration items one by one, resulting in cumbersome operations and low schedule creation efficiency.
In view of this, the present application provides a schedule creation method. The method includes: obtaining information to be processed in response to an input request triggered on a schedule creation page, where the information to be processed is configured to represent natural language content, wherein the information to be processed is configured to indicate the generation of a target schedule; then displaying, on the schedule creation page based on the information to be processed, schedule information including a plurality of schedule configuration items; and creating the target schedule in response to a confirmation operation for the schedule information.
The method allows a user to trigger automatic creation of a schedule by entering the natural language content in the schedule creation page. Based on the information to be processed that is entered by the user, the plurality of schedule configuration items are generated for the user to preview, and the schedule is automatically created after confirmation by the user. In this way, for a piece of schedule information, the user does not need to manually enter information for each of the plurality of schedule configuration items in the schedule creation page, thereby improving the schedule creation efficiency.
To facilitate an understanding of the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application, description is given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Referring to
At S101, information to be processed is obtained in response to an input request triggered on a schedule creation page.
The schedule creation page may be understood as a page used to create or edit a schedule. Depending on application scenarios, the schedule creation page may have different presentation forms. For example, when a user uses an independent schedule tool to create a schedule, the schedule creation page may be a page loaded in a client corresponding to the schedule tool. For another example, when the user creates a schedule using a schedule tool (e.g., the schedule module in the business platform) deployed in another system (e.g., the business platform), the schedule creation page may be a page loaded in a client corresponding to the another system. For another example, when the user creates a schedule using a schedule tool that can be used online, the schedule creation page may be a page displayed in a browser.
The input request may be understood as a request for entering information in the schedule creation page. In some embodiments, the schedule creation page includes a dialogue window, which may provide an input box. The user may generate the input request by triggering the input box, for example, by clicking the input box with a mouse, touching the input box with a touchpad, triggering the input box with a shortcut key, or triggering the input box with a voice command.
The information to be processed may include information entered by the user on the schedule creation page, for example, information entered after the input box is triggered in the dialogue window of the schedule creation page. In the embodiment of the present application, the information to be processed may be used to indicate the creation of a target schedule. Generally, the information to be processed may be used to represent natural language content. For example, the information to be processed may include content for describing requirements such as a target schedule subject, a target schedule time, and a target schedule participant. In this way, the user indicates the intention to create the target schedule by entering natural language.
One schedule usually includes a plurality of schedule configuration items. On the schedule creation page, the plurality of schedule configuration items may be displayed in display areas corresponding to the plurality of schedule configuration items. Considering that the user may manually enter information for the plurality of schedule configuration items in the schedule creation page to create the schedule, or may use the schedule creation method according to the embodiment of the present application to create the schedule, an entry to the dialogue window may be provided on the schedule creation page.
In a specific implementation, the dialogue window is displayed in response to a trigger operation in a first display area in the schedule creation page. In other words, the dialogue window is not displayed the moment the user enters the schedule creation page, and the dialogue window is displayed only when the user triggers the first area in the schedule creation page.
The first area may be used to display a first schedule configuration item, and the first schedule configuration item may be one of the plurality of schedule configuration items. In some embodiments, the display area of the first schedule configuration item may be a schedule configuration item located at the topmost of the schedule creation page, such as a schedule subject. In this way, when the user creates the schedule in the schedule creation page, the dialogue window can be quickly called. For example, when the mouse is placed in the display area of the first schedule configuration item, the trigger operation is generated, and the dialogue window is displayed, such that the user can enter the information to be processed in the dialogue window.
In the embodiments of the present application, the information to be processed may be obtained in different ways. In some embodiments, input information in the schedule creation page may be obtained in response to the input request triggered on the schedule creation page; wherein the information to be processed may be generated based on the input information. That is, the user may enter information described in natural language in the schedule creation page (e.g., the dialogue window of the schedule creation page), and the input information may be used as the information to be processed to indicate the generation of the target schedule.
In some other embodiments, at least one schedule creation template may be displayed in response to the input request triggered on the schedule creation page; template content of the schedule creation template may be displayed in response to a selection operation for the at least one schedule creation template; and in response to an input operation in the schedule creation page, the information to be processed may be generated based on a target schedule creation template and input information of the schedule creation page. That is, by providing the user with the schedule creation template, the user can enter information based on the template content of the schedule creation template, and the template content of the schedule creation template and the information entered by the user are used as the information to be processed, so as to use the schedule creation template to assist the user in entering information.
In some other embodiments, at least one schedule creation control may be displayed in response to the input request triggered on the schedule creation page; and in response to a trigger operation for a target schedule creation control of the at least one schedule creation control, the information to be processed may be generated based on creation information indicated by the target schedule creation control. That is, by providing the user with the schedule creation control, the user can quickly enter the information to be processed by directly triggering the schedule creation control.
At S102, schedule information including a plurality of schedule configuration items is displayed on the schedule creation page based on the information to be processed.
After the information to be processed is obtained, the plurality of schedule configuration items may be generated based on the information to be processed. The plurality of schedule configuration items may be used to describe the target schedule from different aspects, and the schedule configuration items include but are not limited to a schedule subject, a schedule time, a schedule participant, a venue of use, a schedule agenda, etc. When the schedule configuration item is the schedule subject, the content of the schedule configuration item may be a project discussion meeting, a requirements review meeting, etc. When the schedule configuration item is schedule duration, the content of the schedule configuration item may be 1 hour, 2 hours, etc.
In a specific implementation, the information to be processed may be sent to a language model, and the plurality of schedule configuration items generated by the language model may be received; and the schedule information including the plurality of schedule configuration items may then be displayed in the schedule creation page. The language model may be a model with semantic understanding and semantic analysis functions and natural language processing capabilities, such as a deep learning model trained using text data.
In some embodiments, the language model may be a model deployed in a schedule tool, and the plurality of schedule configuration items may be directly generated by entering the information to be processed into the language model. In some other embodiments, the language model may also be an external model, and after the information to be processed is obtained, the plurality of schedule configuration items may be generated by calling the language model. In this way, the language model is configured to identify and understand the intention of the user to create the schedule, so that the user can obtain the schedule information including the plurality of schedule configuration items by entering natural language.
In some possible implementations, considering that there are a large number of schedule configuration items, the plurality of schedule configuration items may be generated in sequence. In a specific implementation, the plurality of schedule configuration items may be generated in sequence based on the information to be processed and a positional relationship between display areas of the plurality of schedule configuration items in the schedule creation page. For example, the plurality of schedule configuration items may be generated in sequence from top to bottom based on the positional relationship between the display areas of the plurality of schedule configuration items in the schedule creation page. In this way, the plurality of schedule configuration items are generated in sequence in a certain generation order, thereby improving the efficiency of generation of the schedule information.
Further, after the plurality of schedule configuration items are generated, the plurality of schedule configuration items may be displayed on the schedule creation page. When the plurality of schedule configuration items are generated in sequence, for a target schedule configuration item of the plurality of schedule configuration items, the target schedule configuration item may be displayed in the display area of the target schedule configuration item in the schedule creation page in response to the generation of the target schedule configuration item being completed. In this way, the moment one schedule configuration item is generated, the schedule configuration item is displayed, and the user is informed of the generation progress in real time, such that the user can view the schedule information in real time.
In addition, during generation of the plurality of schedule configuration items, a prompt interface may further be provided in the schedule creation page. Specifically, a prompt interface may be displayed in the display area corresponding to the target schedule configuration item in the schedule creation page in response to the target schedule configuration item being generated, where display content in the prompt interface indicates that the target schedule configuration item is being generated. In some embodiments, the prompt interface may be a dialogue window in the schedule creation page. In this way, the dialogue window is displayed in the display area corresponding to the schedule configuration item currently being generated, and the dialogue window moves along to inform the user of the generation progress in real time.
During generation of the schedule configuration items, the user may further perform a retry or stop operation. Specifically, the plurality of schedule configuration items are regenerated in sequence in response to a retry operation triggered on the schedule creation page; or the generation of the plurality of schedule configuration items is stopped in response to a stop operation triggered on the schedule creation page.
In other words, for the target schedule configuration item being generated, the user may trigger the retry operation or the stop operation, for example, by means of the prompt interface provided in the display area of the target schedule configuration item, thereby controlling the schedule information generation process.
At S103, the target schedule is created in response to a confirmation operation for the plurality of pieces of schedule information.
The confirmation operation may be understood as an operation of confirming the plurality of schedule configuration items as the target schedule. In other words, the user may view the plurality of schedule configuration items automatically generated to determine whether the current schedule information meets user requirements, and confirm whether the user requirements are met, thereby implementing automatic creation of the target schedule. In a specific implementation, the schedule information may be filled into the corresponding schedule configuration items in the schedule module to create the target schedule.
In addition, the user may also add schedule information corresponding to other schedule configuration items based on the plurality of schedule configuration items currently generated, such as adding a new venue of use, adding a new schedule description, and adding a new meeting minutes, so as to enrich the schedule content.
Correspondingly, if the current schedule information does not meet the user requirements, the user may also trigger the retry operation or a discard operation, thereby regenerating or discarding the plurality of schedule configuration items.
In a specific implementation, input information is received in response to a trigger operation for a target schedule configuration item of the plurality of schedule configuration items; and the updated target schedule configuration item is displayed in the display area of the target schedule configuration item based on the input information.
In other words, the embodiments of the present application allow the user to modify each schedule configuration item by entering information. For example, after the user triggers the target schedule configuration item, an input box may be displayed in the display area of the target schedule configuration item, and the user may enter information in the input box.
Further, the input information may be used to indicate the modified content of the target schedule configuration item. For example, the target schedule configuration item is a reserved conference room. If the user is not satisfied with the currently reserved conference room, the user may trigger a target control and enter “Change the meeting room for me” to modify the target schedule configuration item. The updated target schedule configuration item is displayed in the display area of the target schedule configuration item.
Based on the above description, an embodiment of the present application provides a schedule creation method. The method includes: obtaining information to be processed in response to an input request triggered on a schedule creation page, where the information to be processed is configured to represent natural language content, wherein the information to be processed is configured to indicate the generation of a target schedule; then displaying, on the schedule creation page based on the information to be processed, schedule information including a plurality of schedule configuration items; and creating the target schedule in response to a confirmation operation for the schedule information.
The method allows a user to trigger automatic creation of a schedule by entering the natural language content in the schedule creation page. Based on the information to be processed that is entered by the user, the plurality of schedule configuration items are generated for the user to preview, and the schedule is automatically created after confirmation by the user. In this way, for a piece of schedule information, the user does not need to manually enter information for each of the plurality of schedule configuration items in the schedule creation page, thereby improving the schedule creation efficiency.
The schedule creation method provided by the present application will be described below in conjunction with specific application scenarios.
