Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the above contact grouping methods basically require the user to manually group or manually edit the contact tags; even if the automatic grouping is performed according to the same relationship of common friends, it is also based on the existing manually marked grouping tags of each contact. Moreover, the degree of accuracy also depends on the number of common contacts belonging to the same relationship, that is, the above-mentioned N value. The larger the N value, the accuracy of the relationship will be reliable, otherwise it will be difficult to perform correct grouping
In summary, there are still many inconveniences in the contact grouping in the prior art

specific Embodiment 1

[0039] Specific examples are as figure 2 As shown, a method for grouping contacts proposed by the present invention includes:

[0040] S21: Obtain the communication information generated by the communication between the user and the contact;

[0041] Here, communication can be any way for a user to contact a contact, preferably, for example, it can include but not limited to one or more of the following: phone calls, text messages, emails, instant messages; communication information can include one or more of the following Various: communication time, communication frequency, communication duration, communication content keywords and the location of the contact, etc.;

[0042] S22: Comparing the communication information with preset group characteristics;

[0043] S23: According to the comparison result, classify contacts whose communication information conforms to the group feature into groups corresponding to the group feature.

[0044] This solution does not require the...

specific Embodiment 2

[0046] Specific embodiment two such as image 3 Shown:

[0047] Step S31: Preset the group feature corresponding to the group according to different groups. In this embodiment, the group feature is set as the communication time between the user and the contact. For example, for the "family" group, the group The group's communication time is set to "8:00 PM to 10:00 PM"; for the "customer" group, the group's communication time is set to "weekdays from 9:00 PM to 5:00 PM during the day".

[0048] Step S32: Obtain the communication information generated by the communication between the user and the contact. For example, if the user made a call with contact A at 9:00 p.m., the obtained communication time is "9:00 p.m."; the user made a call with contact B at 10:00 a.m. For video conferencing, the communication time is "10:00 am";

[0049] Step S33: comparing the acquired communication information with the preset group characteristics;

[0050]Step S34: According to the comparis...

specific Embodiment 3

[0051] Step S41: Set corresponding group features according to different groups. In this embodiment, the group features include the communication time with the contact and the location of the contact. For example, for the "family" group, the group The group feature of the group is set to "8:00 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. 10:00 p.m.", and the location of the contact is set to the home address of the user's family "Building No. 1, Harmony Home, Haidian District, Beijing"; for the "colleagues" group , set the group feature of the group to "daytime 9:00 to 5:00 pm on weekdays", and set the location of the contact to the user's company address "Zhongguancun Building, Haidian District, Beijing";

[0052] Step S42: Obtain the communication information generated by the communication between the user and the contact; for example, the user receives a call from Contact A at 9:00 p.m., and obtains the communication information "9:00 p.m." and "Building No. 1, Harmony Homeland, Haidian District, Bei...

Abstract

The invention discloses a grouping method and a grouping apparatus of contacts, wherein the method comprises the following steps of: acquiring communication information generated by communication between a user and a contact; comparing the communication information with preset group characteristics; and dividing the contacts with communication information accordant with the group characteristics into groups corresponding to the group characteristics according to the comparing result. According to the grouping method and the grouping apparatus of contacts, the grouping of the contacts is carried out according to the communication habits and the communication contents of the user and the contact, the contacts are unnecessary to be manually grouped by the user or a contact grouping tag is unnecessary to be filled by the user, so that the conveniences are provided to the grouping of the contacts.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communications, and more specifically, to a contact grouping method and device. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of the network and the general popularity of social terminal products, people's social circles continue to expand, and simply listing contacts in an address book or a contact list can no longer meet the needs of most users. Subsequently, a method of grouping contacts appeared. For example, in some instant messaging software, a user's social circle is organized by grouping contacts. [0003] At present, there are roughly the following methods for grouping contacts: the address book of a mobile terminal device or communication software is preset with several fixed common groups, such as "family", "friends", "colleagues" and so on. Manually add contacts to corresponding groups; some address books provide interfaces for users to customize groups, which allows u...
