Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of Internet technology, and in particular to an information recommendation method, apparatus, computer device, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of internet technology, the amount of information disseminated online is becoming increasingly abundant. Because of the sheer volume of this information, it's difficult for users to view it all. Therefore, information can be recommended to users based on their preferences for different types of information.

[0003] In related technologies, information is typically recommended to users based on their historical behavioral data (e.g., browsing history, likes, comments, etc.). However, users' interests are not static. If the above approach is adopted, multiple historical behavioral data points generated after changes in user interests are obtained in order to accurately recommend information to users, which has a strong lag and poor recommendation effect. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides an information recommendation method, apparatus, computer device, and storage medium, which improves the recommendation effect. The technical solution is as follows:

[0005] On the one hand, an information recommendation method is provided, the method comprising:

[0006] The profile settings interface is displayed. The profile settings interface is used to set the user profile corresponding to the logged-in user identifier. The profile settings interface includes information addition options.

[0007] In response to a triggering operation that adds options to the information, an information list is displayed, the information list including multiple pieces of information viewed based on the user identifier;

[0008] In response to a trigger operation on any information, the information is added as a tag to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile.

[0009] Based on the updated user profile, recommended information is obtained.

[0010] On the other hand, an information recommendation device is provided, the device comprising:

[0011] The display module is used to display the profile setting interface, which is used to set the user profile corresponding to the logged-in user identifier. The profile setting interface includes information addition options.

[0013] The update module is used to add the information as a tag to the user profile in response to a trigger operation on any information, so as to obtain an updated user profile.

[0014] The acquisition module is used to obtain recommended information based on the updated user profile.

[0015] On the other hand, a computer device is provided, the computer device including a processor and a memory, the memory storing at least one piece of program code, the at least one piece of program code being loaded and executed by the processor to perform the operations performed in the information recommendation method as described above.

[0016] On the other hand, a computer-readable storage medium is provided that stores at least one piece of program code, which is loaded and executed by a processor to perform the operations performed in the information recommendation method described above.

[0017] In another aspect, a computer program product is provided, wherein at least one piece of program code is stored in the computer program product, and the at least one piece of program code is loaded and executed by a processor to implement the operations performed in the information recommendation method of the above embodiments.

[0018] The information recommendation method, apparatus, computer device, and storage medium provided in this application provide a user profile setting interface, allowing users to configure their own user profiles. Furthermore, users can select information from multiple viewed pieces of information to add to their user profiles. This enables the information recommendation scheme to adjust recommended information promptly based on user feedback, ensuring that the recommended information is of interest to the user. This allows users to actively choose the information they want to be recommended, guaranteeing that the recommended information is of interest to them and improving the recommendation effect.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] It is understood that the terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," "fifth," "sixth," etc., used in this application may be used to describe various concepts, but unless otherwise stated, these concepts are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one concept from another. For example, without departing from the scope of this application, a first label may be referred to as a second label, and a second label may be referred to as a first label.

[0029] As used in this application, the terms "each," "multiple," "at least one," and "any" mean, with "at least one" including one, two, or more, "multiple" including two or more, "each" referring to each of the corresponding multiples, and "any" referring to any one of the multiples. For example, multiple tags include three tags, with "each" referring to each of the three tags, and "any" referring to any one of the three tags, which could be the first, the second, or the third.

[0030] It is understood that, in the specific implementation of this application, user-related data such as user profiles and user historical behavior data need to obtain user permission or consent when the embodiments of this application are applied to specific products or technologies, and the collection, use and processing of related data need to comply with the relevant laws, regulations and standards of relevant countries and regions.

[0031] The information recommendation method provided in this application is executed by a computer device. In one possible implementation, the computer device is a terminal, such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, or computer. In another possible implementation, the computer device includes both a terminal and a server.

[0032] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an implementation environment provided in an embodiment of this application. See also... Figure 1 The implementation environment includes terminal 101 and server 102. Terminal 101 and server 102 are connected via a wireless or wired network.

[0033] A target application, provided by server 102, is installed on terminal 101. Terminal 101 can perform functions such as data transmission and message interaction through this target application. Optionally, the target application is a target application within the operating system of terminal 101, or a target application provided by a third party. For example, the target application is an audio processing application with audio processing capabilities, such as audio playback. Of course, this audio processing application can also have other functions, such as sharing and commenting functions. Optionally, server 102 is a backend server for the target application or a cloud server providing cloud computing and cloud storage services.

[0034] Optionally, terminal 101 displays a user profile settings interface, where the user can edit the user profile corresponding to the logged-in user identifier on terminal 101, customize a user profile, and send the customized user profile to server 102 through terminal 101. Server 102 recommends information to the user based on the customized user profile.

[0035] The information recommendation method provided in this application can be applied to any recommendation scenario.

[0036] For example, it can be applied to audio recommendation scenarios.

[0037] When a user listens to audio through an audio processing application, the application can recommend audio to the user based on their listening history. If the information recommendation method provided in this application is used, the user can modify their user profile to make it more accurate, thereby enabling the device to recommend information to the user more accurately based on that profile, thus improving the information recommendation effect.

[0038] For example, it can be applied to short video recommendation scenarios.

[0039] When a user browses short videos through a short video application, the application can recommend short videos based on the user's viewed, liked, and commented-on videos. If the information recommendation method provided in this application is used, the user can modify their user profile to make it more accurate. This allows the device to recommend information more accurately based on the user profile, improving the information recommendation effect.

[0040] It should be noted that the information recommendation method provided in this application embodiment can be applied to any recommendation scenario, and this application embodiment does not limit the recommendation scenario.

[0041] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating an information recommendation method provided in an embodiment of this application. This embodiment uses a terminal as the executing entity for illustrative purposes. See also... Figure 2 The method includes:

[0042] 201. The terminal displays a user profile settings interface, which is used to set the user profile corresponding to the logged-in user identifier. The user profile settings interface includes information addition options.

[0043] User profiles are abstracted, labeled models based on user attributes, preferences, and lifestyle habits. They describe users using highly generalized and easily understood labels. Therefore, user profiles can be seen as virtual representations of real users.

[0044] The user profile settings interface is used to set up user profiles. In this interface, users can create a user profile and use it as the user profile corresponding to the logged-in user identifier. Users can also modify existing user profiles to obtain a user profile that is more suitable for them and more representative of them.

[0045] The information addition option is used to add information as tags to the user profile. For example, you can add information that the user is interested in to the user profile, or add information that the user is not interested in to the user profile.

[0046] 202. In response to the triggering operation of the information addition option, the terminal displays an information list, which includes multiple pieces of information viewed based on the user's identifier.

[0047] The triggering operation can be a combination of one or more operations such as a click operation, a touch operation, a swipe operation, a double-click operation, or a long-press operation. This application embodiment does not limit the triggering operation.

[0048] The information list can be arranged sequentially according to the user's browsing order.

[0049] 203. In response to any trigger operation on information, the terminal adds the information as a tag to the user profile to obtain the updated user profile.

[0050] The information triggered by the user can be either information they are interested in or information they are not interested in. If the information is interesting, it is added to the user profile, and similar information can be recommended to the user later. If the information is not interesting, it is added to the user profile, and similar information will not be recommended to the user later.

[0051] 204. The terminal obtains recommended information based on the updated user profile.

[0052] In this embodiment, after a user updates their user profile, they can obtain recommended information based on the updated profile. This information can be in any format, such as text, image, or video. It can also be short videos, news events, audio, or other similar content.

[0053] The information recommendation method provided in this application provides a user profile setting interface, allowing users to configure their own user profiles. Users can also select information from multiple viewed items to add to their user profiles. This enables the information recommendation scheme to adjust recommended information promptly based on user feedback, ensuring that the recommended information is of interest to the user. This allows users to actively choose the information they want to be recommended, guaranteeing that the recommended information is of interest to the user and improving the recommendation effect.

[0054] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of an information recommendation method provided in an embodiment of this application. See also... Figure 3 This application uses a terminal and a server as examples to illustrate the interaction methods, which include:

[0055] 301. The terminal displays a user profile settings interface, which is used to set the user profile corresponding to the logged-in user identifier. The user profile settings interface includes a tag editing option, which is used to edit the tags of the user profile.

[0056] In this embodiment, the user profile settings interface is used to configure user profiles. This interface includes a tag editing option, allowing users to edit tags within the user profile. For example, users can add, delete, or modify tags in the user profile. This embodiment does not limit the method of tag editing.

[0057] In one possible implementation, the user profile settings interface can not only edit the tags of the user profile, but also set the expiration information of the user profile, or it can also set the expiration information of the tags in the user profile. This application embodiment does not limit the functionality of the user profile settings interface.

[0058] In one possible implementation, the user profile settings interface includes a user profile created by the server for that user identifier. The user can edit this user profile using the tab editing options to make it more accurate. In another possible implementation, the user profile settings interface does not include a user profile created by the server for that user identifier. The user creates a new user profile using the tab editing options.

[0059] 302. In response to the triggering operation of the label editing option, the terminal edits the label of the user profile to obtain the updated user profile.

[0060] Editing user profile tags can involve adding, deleting, or modifying tags within a user profile. This application's embodiments illustrate the process of "editing user profile tags" by taking adding, deleting, and modifying tags within a user profile as examples.

[0061] In one possible implementation, editing the tags of a user profile includes: adding tags to the user profile. The tag editing options include tag addition options; in response to a triggering operation of the tag editing options, the terminal edits the tags of the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: in response to a triggering operation of the tag addition options, adding candidate tags to the user profile to obtain the updated user profile.

[0062] Adding tags to a user profile can be done by adding tags to a user profile created on the server, or by adding tags to an empty user profile, which the user then uses to create a new user profile; alternatively, tags can be added to a previously created user profile. This embodiment of the application does not limit the type of user profile used. An empty user profile refers to a user profile that does not include tags.

[0063] The tag addition option is used to add tags to a user profile. Optionally, the tag editing option includes tag addition options corresponding to multiple candidate tags; in response to the triggering operation of the tag editing option, the terminal edits the tags of the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: in response to the triggering operation of the tag addition option for any candidate tag, adding the candidate tag to the user profile as a tag of the user profile, thereby obtaining an updated user profile.

[0064] Candidate tags are tags provided by the target application. Users can select tags that match themselves from multiple candidate tags and add them to their user profile. Optionally, each add option displays a corresponding candidate tag, allowing users to determine which add option to trigger an action based on the displayed candidate tags.

[0065] For example, if the target application offers options for "post-80s", "post-90s", "post-95s", and "post-00s", and the current user was born in 1997, then the user can trigger an action on the "post-95s" option, thereby adding "post-95s" as a tag to the user profile.

[0066] Optionally, the tag editing options include multiple tag addition options corresponding to tag attributes; in response to the triggering operation of the tag editing options, the terminal edits the tags of the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: in response to the triggering operation of any tag addition option corresponding to a tag attribute, displaying a tag list corresponding to the tag attribute, the tag list including multiple tags belonging to the tag attribute; in response to the triggering operation of any tag in the tag list, adding the tag to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile.

[0067] Tag attributes refer to the attributes to which a tag belongs. For example, tags such as "post-80s," "post-90s," "post-95s," and "post-00s" belong to the attribute "age." Users can add different attribute tags to their user profiles by selecting the corresponding add options for different tag attributes. Optionally, each add option displays the corresponding tag attribute, allowing users to determine which add option to trigger an action based on the displayed tag attributes.

[0068] For example, the target application offers "Zodiac Sign", "Interests", and "Gender" options. After the user clicks on the "Zodiac Sign" option, the terminal displays a list of zodiac signs, which includes all twelve signs. The user can click on any sign in the list to add that sign as a tag to the user profile.

[0069] It should be noted that some tag attributes in a user profile can only have one tag, while others can have multiple tags. For example, the "zodiac sign" attribute can only have one tag, while the "interests" attribute can have multiple tags. To enable users to accurately edit user profiles, the target application can edit the tags in the user profile based on the number of tags under each attribute. In one possible implementation, in response to a triggering operation on any tag in the tag list, the tag is added to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile. This includes: if the tag attribute is of type three, in response to a triggering operation on any tag, deleting the tag belonging to that tag attribute in the user profile and adding the triggered tag to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile; if the tag attribute is of type four, in response to a triggering operation on any tag, adding the tag to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile.

[0070] Among them, a tag attribute of type three means that there can only be one tag under this tag attribute in the user profile; a tag attribute of type four means that there can be multiple tags under this tag attribute in the user profile.

[0071] Optionally, the label editing option includes a custom addition option; in response to the triggering operation of the label editing option, the terminal edits the labels of the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: in response to the editing operation of the custom addition option, obtaining the input text information; in response to the completion of the editing operation of the custom addition option, adding the text information as a label to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile.

[0072] The candidate tags provided by the target application are limited, and these candidate tags may not include or may not fully include the tags that the user wants to add. Therefore, this application embodiment also provides a custom addition option, which allows the user to input tags and can meet the user's tag needs.

[0073] The custom add option can be an input box where users can enter the tags they want to add to the user profile.

[0074] Optionally, the tag editing option includes an information addition option, which is used to add information of interest or information of no interest corresponding to the user identifier; in response to the triggering operation of the tag editing option, the terminal edits the tags of the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: in response to the triggering operation of the information addition option, displaying an information list, which includes multiple pieces of information viewed based on the user identifier; in response to the triggering operation of any piece of information, adding the information as a tag to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile.

[0075] While browsing information, users will find some information that interests them and some that does not. In order to ensure that the information recommended to users is information that they are interested in, rather than information that they are not interested in, this application provides an information addition option. Users can use this information addition option to add information that they are interested in or not interested in to their user profile.

[0076] To ensure that when obtaining recommendation information based on user profiles, it is possible to clearly identify whether to acquire information similar to information in the user profile or exclude information similar to information in the user profile, this embodiment of the application adds an indicator identifier when adding information to the user profile. In one possible implementation, in response to a trigger operation on any information, the information is added as a tag to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: the information addition option is used to add information of interest corresponding to the user identifier; in response to a trigger operation on any information, the information and a first type identifier are added as tags to the user profile to obtain the updated user profile, where the first type identifier indicates that the information is information of interest corresponding to the user identifier; the information addition option is used to add information of non-interest corresponding to the user identifier; in response to a trigger operation on any information, the information and a second type identifier are added as tags to the user profile to obtain the updated user profile, where the second type identifier indicates that the information is information of non-interest corresponding to the user identifier.

[0077] Of course, the target application can also provide the ability to add information of interest and information of non-interest. In one possible implementation, the tag editing options include a first information addition option and a second information addition option. The first information addition option is used to add information of interest corresponding to the user identifier, and the second information addition option is used to add information of non-interest corresponding to the user identifier.

[0078] In another possible implementation, the label editing options include an information addition option, a first type option, and a second type option; in response to a trigger operation on the information addition option, the terminal displays an information list, which includes multiple pieces of information viewed based on the user identifier; in response to a trigger operation on any piece of information, the first type option and the second type option are displayed; in response to a trigger operation on the first type option, the information and the first type identifier are added to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile; in response to a trigger operation on the second type option, the information and the second type identifier are added to the user profile to obtain an updated user profile.

[0079] It should be noted that the embodiments in this application are merely illustrative examples of tag addition options, including addition options corresponding to multiple candidate tags, addition options corresponding to multiple tag attributes, custom addition options, and information addition options. In another embodiment, the tag addition options may include other options. In another embodiment, the tag addition options may include at least one of the following: addition options corresponding to multiple candidate tags, addition options corresponding to multiple tag attributes, custom addition options, and information addition options.

[0080] Users can not only add tags to user profiles, but also delete tags from user profiles. In one possible implementation, the tag editing option includes a tag deletion option; in response to a triggering operation of the tag editing option, the terminal edits the tags of the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: in response to a triggering operation of the tag deletion option, deleting the tags in the user profile to obtain an updated user profile.

[0081] Deleting tags from a user profile can mean deleting all tags, some tags, any tag, or at least one specific tag from the user profile; this application does not limit this.

[0082] Optionally, the tag editing options include tag deletion options corresponding to each tag in the user profile; in response to the triggering operation of the tag editing options, the terminal edits the tags of the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: in response to the triggering operation of the tag deletion option corresponding to any tag, deleting the tag from the user profile to obtain the updated user profile.

[0083] Optionally, each tag deletion option displays a corresponding tag, so that users can determine which tag deletion option to trigger an operation based on the tags displayed in the tag deletion options.

[0084] Optionally, the tag editing option includes a tag deletion option, and the profile settings interface includes multiple tags in the user profile; in response to the triggering operation of the tag editing option, the terminal edits the tags of the user profile to obtain an updated user profile, including: when any tag in the user profile is selected, in response to the triggering operation of the tag deletion option, the selected tag is deleted from the user profile to obtain an updated user profile.

[0085] In one possible implementation, the user profile settings interface also includes a timeliness setting option. After the terminal displays the user profile settings interface, the method further includes: in response to a triggering operation of the timeliness setting option, obtaining the timeliness information set for the user profile. The terminal obtains recommended information based on the updated user profile, including: obtaining recommended information based on the updated user profile and the timeliness information.

[0086] The timeliness information of the user profile indicates the effective period of the user profile. The user profile is valid within this effective period and expires outside of it. Optionally, the timeliness information includes an effective time point and an expiration time point. Optionally, the timeliness information includes an effective period. For example, if the timeliness information is 7 hours, it means that the user profile expires after 7 hours.

[0087] In practical applications, there are situations where multiple people share the same account. For example, when a user's device runs out of power, a family member's device can be used. However, the information recommended to that user in this case might be suitable for their family member, not the user themselves. In this situation, the user can create a user profile and set its expiration time, causing it to expire after a certain period. This not only ensures that the user can access information of interest during use but also avoids negatively impacting the user experience of their family members.

[0088] In one possible implementation, the user profile settings interface further includes timeliness setting options for each tag in the user profile; after the terminal displays the user profile settings interface, the method further includes: in response to a triggering operation on the timeliness setting option of any tag, obtaining the timeliness information set for the tag. The terminal obtains recommended information based on the updated user profile, including: obtaining recommended information based on the updated user profile and the timeliness information corresponding to each tag in the updated user profile.

[0089] In this embodiment, users can set time-sensitive information not only for user profiles but also for tags within those profiles. For example, if a user suddenly wants to view a certain type of information on a particular day, they can add a corresponding tag to their user profile and set time-sensitive information for that tag. The time-sensitive information set for tags is similar to that set for user profiles, and will not be elaborated upon further here.

[0090] In this profile settings interface, each tag can correspond to a separate time-limited setting option, or it can correspond to the same time-limited setting option. In one possible implementation, each tag corresponds to the same time-limited setting option. When any tag is selected, in response to the trigger operation of that time-limited setting option, the time-limited information set for the selected tag is obtained.

[0091] In one possible implementation, the profile settings interface includes multiple recommended user profiles, and the method further includes: in response to the selection of any recommended user profile, using the recommended user profile as the updated user profile.

[0092] This application embodiment also takes into account the situation where users cannot properly edit user profiles due to reasons such as finding it troublesome or not knowing how to edit user profiles. It can also recommend user profiles to users, and users can directly select one of the user profiles as the user profile corresponding to the login user identifier. Users can also select a user profile and edit it based on that user profile.

[0093] In this application, the user profile recommended by the target application can be an existing user profile on the server. To ensure that different users can choose a suitable user profile, in this embodiment, the existing user profiles can be divided into multiple categories, and a user profile can be selected from each category to obtain the user profile corresponding to each type of user. Using these user profiles as recommended user profiles can ensure that most users can choose a suitable user profile.

[0094] Optionally, before the terminal selects any recommended user profile and uses the recommended user profile as the updated user profile, the method further includes: clustering the existing multiple user profiles to obtain multiple user profile clusters; and obtaining a user profile as the recommended user profile based on each user profile cluster.

[0095] In the process of clustering multiple existing user profiles, feature extraction and feature fusion can be performed on the labels of each user profile to obtain the profile features corresponding to each user profile. Based on the profile features of each user profile, multiple user profiles can be clustered.

[0096] Specifically, obtaining user profiles as recommended user profiles based on each user profile cluster includes: randomly selecting at least one user profile from each user profile cluster as a recommended user profile; or selecting the user profile closest to the cluster center from each user profile cluster as a recommended user profile; or performing a weighted average of the profile features of each user profile in the user profile cluster and generating a recommended user profile based on the processed profile features.

[0097] Optionally, the profile settings interface also includes a profile customization option. Before the terminal selects any recommended user profile and uses the recommended user profile as the updated user profile, the method further includes: in response to the triggering operation of the profile customization option, obtaining input text information; and based on the text information, obtaining a user profile that matches the text information from multiple existing user profiles as the recommended user profile.

[0098] In this embodiment of the application, in order to facilitate users to quickly edit user profiles, users can input the overall description information of the user profile. The target application searches for a matching user profile from the existing user profiles based on the description information input by the user, and recommends the user profile to the user. If the user is satisfied with the user profile, the user profile can be directly used as the user profile corresponding to the logged-in user identifier; if the user is not satisfied with the user profile, the user profile can be modified.

[0099] 303. The terminal sends the updated user profile to the server. The server receives the updated user profile and no longer sends the previously obtained recommendation information. Based on the updated information on mutual recommendations among users, the server sends the updated information to the terminal.

[0100] To ensure that information can be provided to users in real time based on the updated user profile after they edit it, this application provides two methods for the server to obtain the updated user profile.

[0101] In one possible implementation, the terminal sends the updated user profile to the server, including: the terminal responding to an edit operation on the user profile by sending the updated user profile to the server. For example, Spark Streaming technology can be used to send the updated user profile.

[0102] In another possible implementation, the terminal sends the updated user profile to the server, including sending the current user profile to the server every first preset time interval. For example, technologies such as Flink can be used to send the updated user profile.

[0103] The server can obtain the recommendation information using any method based on the user profile, and this application embodiment does not limit this.

[0104] The information recommendation method provided in this application provides a profile setting interface, which allows users to customize their user profiles through the tag editing options in the profile setting interface. This indirectly enables users to actively select the information they want to be recommended, ensuring that the information recommended to users is information that users are interested in, and improving the recommendation effect.

[0105] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an information recommendation device provided in this application. See also: Figure 4 The device includes:

[0106] Display module 401 is used to display the profile setting interface, which is used to set the user profile corresponding to the logged-in user identifier, and includes information addition options.

[0107] Update module 402 is used to display an information list in response to a trigger operation that adds options to the information, the information list including multiple pieces of information viewed based on the user identifier;

[0108] The update module 402 is used to add the information as a tag to the user profile in response to a trigger operation on any information, so as to obtain an updated user profile.

[0109] The acquisition module 403 is used to acquire recommended information based on the updated user profile.
