[0069] To facilitate understanding, some relevant concepts and application scenarios involved in the embodiments of this application will be introduced below.

[0070] I. Related Concepts

[0071] Network resources refer to the sum of various information resources that can be utilized through the network environment. These resources usually exist in the form of electronic resource data, including information in various forms such as text, images, sound, and animation, and are stored in non-printed media such as optical and magnetic materials.

[0072] Collections.shuffle is a Java Collections class method that randomly replaces elements in a specified list. There are two different types of Java shuffle() methods, which can be distinguished by their parameters: Java Collections shuffle(list) and Java Collections shuffle(list, random).

[0073] The Java Collections shuffle(list) method works by randomly reordering the elements of a specified list using default randomness.

[0074] The Java Collections shuffle(list, random) method works by randomly reordering the elements of a list using a specified randomness.

[0075] `getRandomHanzi` is a function used to generate random Chinese characters. It can be used in various scenarios that require random character generation, such as generating verification codes, test data, and random character sets. The implementation of this function can vary depending on the scenario.

[0076] II. Application Scenarios

[0077] With the rapid development of computer network technology, the increasing popularity of computers, and the growing abundance of network resources, computer applications have permeated all aspects of society. At the same time, with the continuous development of mobile internet technology, the number of users of electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets is also increasing. Given the unknown number of users, how to allocate network resources to them has become a pressing technical problem for those skilled in the art.

[0078] For example, in many event scenarios, it is necessary to randomly generate specific Chinese characters from a set of Chinese characters to complete the event task. However, when planning similar events, it is difficult to control the number of users and ensure the number of attempts and successes.

[0079] Taking a specific scenario as an example, in this scenario, online resources refer to Chinese characters. For instance, in some important promotional events, organizers may attract attention by offering prizes on-site. Currently, with the widespread use of smartphones, tablets, and other electronic devices, as well as the popularity of mini-programs, more promotional activities are combining on-site events with mini-programs. For example, for a promotional event for a newly opened museum, a mini-program could be designed. Users could scan a QR code on-site (each scan yields one Chinese character, with no limit on the number of scans per user) to randomly collect characters. If a user collects a specific sequence of characters, such as the six characters for "Museum Night," they can redeem souvenirs or gifts on-site by following the instructions on the mini-program. However, the number of gifts is usually limited, while the number of users and the number of scans is unpredictable. Therefore, how to control the number of times users need to collect a specific sequence of characters in the planning of such events is a problem worth studying.

[0080] In related technologies, when encountering this problem, the first consideration is to achieve it by collecting a specific sequence of Chinese characters with a probability P1. However, in character collection activities, it is impossible to predict the total number of users in such promotional activities, so there is no way to set a probability P1, where P1 = number of successful attempts / total number of attempts, and total number of attempts = number of successful attempts / P1.

[0081] This means that if you want to generate a specific Chinese character sequence with a probability of P1, theoretically you should try approximately the number of successful attempts / P1. However, due to randomness, it may actually take many more attempts to reach this probability. Therefore, in the code, the maximum number of attempts (MAX_TRIES) should be set larger than the actual value to ensure that the probability of P1 is reached in actual operation.

[0082] However, it's important to note that this method is not mathematically rigorous, as it relies on the number of trials and randomness. Due to the nature of randomness, directly controlling the probability of generating a specific sequence to P1 is quite difficult, as it involves complex probability calculations. In practice, it may be necessary to calibrate the value of MAX_TRIES by running the program multiple times and statistically analyzing the results to more precisely control the probability of generating a specific Chinese character sequence.

[0083] Suppose that the organizers of an event intend to offer 100 gifts on-site, but they don't know the exact number of users participating in the character collection activity. This problem cannot be solved by setting the probability of collecting a specific sequence of Chinese characters as described above. To solve the above technical problem, embodiments of this application provide a resource allocation method, apparatus, resource allocation device, and storage medium.

[0084] The resource allocation method provided in this application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0085] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a resource allocation method provided in an embodiment of this application, applied to a resource allocation device. This resource allocation device can allocate N types of network resources, where N is an integer greater than 1, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method may include the following steps: step 101, step 102, step 103, step 104 and step 105;

[0086] In step 101, a first resource allocation request sent by a first user in the target scenario is received, wherein the first resource allocation request is used to request the allocation of a network resource.

[0087] In this embodiment of the application, network resources may include any one of the following: images, text, video, and audio, and the application scenarios are quite extensive.

[0088] In this application embodiment, the target scenario refers to any scenario involving the allocation of network resources. In practical applications, the target scenario can be an online scenario or an offline scenario, such as an offline scenario of scanning a QR code to collect a specific sequence of Chinese characters.

[0089] In some embodiments, network resources include text, and N types of network resources include: N different specific texts, the target scenario is a scenario where N different specific texts are collected to redeem a gift, and the first quantity threshold is the quantity value of the gift in the target scenario.

[0090] In this embodiment, considering that there are usually many users in the target scenario, some users will participate in the resource allocation activity, while others will not. For example, in an offline promotional event, some users participate in the activity of scanning QR codes to collect Chinese characters, while others simply browse and do not participate. Therefore, for ease of distinction, the users in the target scenario who participate in the resource allocation activity are referred to as the first users.

[0091] In this embodiment of the application, the resource allocation request may be triggered by the user scanning a barcode in the target scene using their own electronic device, which then sends the request to the resource allocation device.

[0092] For example, the barcode can specifically be a QR code, such as... Figure 2 As shown, many users (it could be 500, 1000, or some other number) participated in the "Scan QR Code to Collect All the 'Night at the Museum' Items" activity offline, and the organizer provided 100 gifts.

[0093] From the user's perspective, for User 1, every time User 1 scans a QR code using Mobile Phone 1, one Chinese character is obtained. After scanning the QR code multiple times, multiple Chinese characters are obtained. Similarly, for User 2, every time User 2 scans a QR code using Mobile Phone 2, one Chinese character is obtained. After scanning the QR code multiple times, multiple Chinese characters are obtained. Multiple users can scan a QR code simultaneously.

[0094] Taking User 1 as an example, every time User 1 scans a QR code using Mobile Phone 1, it triggers Mobile Phone 1 to send a resource allocation request to the resource allocation device in the cloud. The resource allocation device responds to the resource allocation request and returns one Chinese character to Mobile Phone 1. For example, if User 1 scans the QR code 3 times in sequence using Mobile Phone 1, Mobile Phone 1 sends 3 resource allocation requests to the resource allocation device in sequence. The resource allocation device responds to the 3 resource allocation requests successively and returns 3 Chinese characters, such as "Bo", "Bo", and "Ye" respectively. Similarly, User 2 scans the QR code 4 times using Mobile Phone 2 and obtains 4 Chinese characters, such as "Bo", "Guan", "Ye", and "Wu" respectively. The expectation of the user is that through multiple QR code scans, the multiple Chinese characters obtained can form "The Night at the Museum", and at this time, the user can obtain a gift.

[0095] In step 102, in response to the first resource allocation request, according to the first probability, a network resource is allocated to the first user, and the type information of the network resource allocated to the first user is recorded in the user database.

[0096] In the embodiment of the present application, the user database includes: the quantity of various network resources already allocated to each first user and the types to which each network resource belongs. The first probability is the probability set by humans for the first user to集齐 N types of network resources.

[0097] In the embodiment of the present application, after receiving the first resource allocation request, the resource allocation device can randomly generate a network resource according to the first probability and return this network resource to the first user, thereby achieving the allocation of a network resource to the first user. Or, if a resource pool is set in the resource allocation device and multiple network resources are pre-stored in the resource pool, after receiving the first resource allocation request, the resource allocation device can randomly select a network resource from the resource pool according to the first probability and return this network resource to the first user, thereby achieving the allocation of a network resource to the first user.

[0098] In step 103, according to the user database, it is determined whether the number of first users who have集齐 N types of network resources reaches the first quantity threshold. If so, the allocation times of a specific type of network resource among the N types of network resources are set.

[0099] In this embodiment of the application, since the user database records the quantity of various network resources allocated to each first user and the type of each network resource, the number of first users who have collected N types of network resources can be accurately determined based on the user database.

[0100] In this application embodiment, a specific type of network resource can be one type of network resource or at least two types of network resources.

[0101] In this application embodiment, the first quantity threshold typically refers to the upper limit of the number of users who can collect all N types of network resources, which is preset manually. For example, the number of gifts provided by the event organizer for the "scan the code to collect all the <Night at the Museum>" event.

[0102] In this embodiment of the application, when allocating resources to each first user in the target scenario in the network resource allocation scenario, the allocation is carried out according to a set probability. As network resources are continuously allocated, when the number of users who have collected N types of network resources reaches the set upper limit, the number of users who have collected N types of network resources is controlled by controlling the subsequent allocation of a specific network resource.

[0103] In step 104, a second resource allocation request is received from a first user in the target scenario, wherein the second resource allocation request is used to request the allocation of a network resource.

[0104] In this embodiment of the application, although the number of users who have collected N types of network resources has reached the set upper limit, since the number of users in the target scenario is usually large, other users who have not collected N types of network resources may not know the above situation and will continue to participate in the resource allocation activity. At this time, these users will continue to send resource allocation requests (i.e., second resource allocation requests) to the resource allocation device.

[0105] In step 105, in response to the second resource allocation request, a network resource is allocated to the first user according to the set number of allocations.

[0106] In this embodiment, a network resource is allocated to a user who has not collected all N types of network resources according to the set number of allocations, so that the user cannot collect all N types of network resources in the future, thereby controlling the number of users who have collected all N types of network resources in the target scenario to not exceed the set upper limit.

[0107] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, step 105 above may include the following steps: step 301, step 302 and step 303;

[0108] In step 301, a network resource is randomly generated according to the set number of allocations and the second probability; wherein, the second probability is the probability set by the user that the first user collects all N types of network resources.

[0109] In this embodiment of the application, the values ​​of the second probability and the first probability may be the same or different.

[0110] In step 302, based on the user database and the type information of randomly generated network resources, the third probability and the actual number of times a specific type of network resource is allocated after the number of first users who have collected N types of network resources reaches a first quantity threshold are determined; wherein, the third probability is the actual probability of the first user collecting N types of network resources.

[0111] In step 303, a network resource is allocated to the first user based on the second probability, the third probability, the set number of allocations, and the actual number of allocations.

[0112] Optionally, when the number of types of a particular type of network resource is 1, such as Figure 4 As shown, step 303 above may include the following steps: step 3031, step 3032, step 3033 and step 3034;

[0113] In step 3031, it is determined whether the third probability is less than or equal to the second probability; if so, step 3032 is executed, otherwise step 3034 is executed.

[0114] In step 3032, it is determined whether the actual number of allocations is less than or equal to the set number of allocations; if so, step 3033 is executed; otherwise, step 3034 is executed.

[0115] In this embodiment of the application, when the third probability is less than or equal to the second probability, it is determined whether the actual number of allocations is less than or equal to the set number of allocations.

[0116] In step 3033, randomly selected network resources are allocated to the first user, and the type information of the network resources allocated to the first user is recorded in the user database.

[0117] In this embodiment of the application, when the actual number of allocations is less than or equal to the set number of allocations, randomly selected network resources are allocated to the first user, and the type information of the network resources allocated to the first user is recorded in the user database.

[0118] In step 3034, the process returns to the step of randomly selecting a network resource based on the set number of allocations and the second probability.

[0119] In this embodiment of the application, if the third probability is greater than the second probability, or the actual number of allocations is greater than the set number of allocations, the process returns to execute the above step 301.

[0120] Optionally, when the number of types of a specific type of network resource is M, M is an integer greater than 1 and less than N, such as... Figure 5 As shown, step 303 above may include the following steps: step 3035, step 3036, step 3037 and step 3038;

[0121] In step 3035, it is determined whether the third probability is less than or equal to the second probability; if so, step 3036 is executed, otherwise step 3038 is executed.

[0122] In step 3036, it is determined whether the actual allocation counts corresponding to each of the M specific types of network resources are all less than or equal to the set allocation counts; if so, step 3037 is executed, otherwise step 3038 is executed.

[0123] In this embodiment of the application, when the third probability is less than or equal to the second probability, it is determined whether the actual number of allocations for each of the M specific types of network resources is less than or equal to the set number of allocations.

[0124] In step 3037, randomly selected network resources are allocated to the first user, and the type information of the network resources allocated to the first user is recorded in the user database.

[0125] In this embodiment of the application, when all actual allocation counts are less than or equal to the set allocation counts, randomly selected network resources are allocated to the first user, and the type information of the network resources allocated to the first user is recorded in the user database.

[0126] In step 3038, the process returns to the step of randomly selecting a network resource based on the set number of allocations and the second probability.

[0127] In this embodiment of the application, if the third probability is greater than the second probability, or if at least one actual allocation number is greater than the set allocation number, the process returns to execute step 301 above.

[0128] As can be seen from the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the resource allocation device receives a first resource allocation request sent by a first user in a target scenario, where the first resource allocation request is used to request the allocation of a network resource; in response to the first resource allocation request, according to a first probability, a network resource is allocated to the first user, and the type information of the network resource allocated to the first user is recorded in the user database, where the user database includes: the quantity of various network resources already allocated to each first user and the types to which each network resource belongs, and the first probability is the probability, set artificially, that the first user集齐N types of network resources; according to the user database, it is determined whether the number of first users who have集齐N types of network resources has reached a first quantity threshold, and if so, the allocation times of a specific type of network resource among the N types of network resources are set; the resource allocation device receives a second resource allocation request sent by a first user in the target scenario, where the second resource allocation request is used to request the allocation of a network resource; in response to the second resource allocation request, according to the set allocation times, a network resource is allocated to the first user, thereby achieving the allocation of network resources to users when the number of users is unknown.

[0129] For ease of understanding, the resource allocation method provided in the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to a specific example below.

[0130] The network resources include text, and the N types of network resources include: N different specific texts. The target scenario is a scenario where N different specific texts are collected to exchange for gifts, and the first quantity threshold is the quantity value of the gifts in the target scenario.

[0131] For example, the N types of network resources are specifically the six Chinese characters "Museum of the Night". For example, in an offline activity scenario, 1000 users participate in the activity of scanning QR codes to obtain Chinese characters, and the activity organizer provides 100 gifts.

[0132] The activity organizer sets the initial probability that the first user集齐N types of network resources as P2 (i.e., the first probability). 1000 users use their mobile phones to continuously scan the QR codes in the activity scenario, and the resource allocation device returns Chinese characters to the 1000 users according to the probability P1. As these users continuously scan the codes, the users continuously obtain Chinese characters from the resource allocation device, and more and more users集齐the six Chinese characters "Museum of the Night". When the resource allocation device detects that the number of users who have集齐the six Chinese characters "Museum of the Night" has reached the gift quantity of 100, it will enable the backend code to interfere with the allocation times of one of the six Chinese characters "Museum of the Night", for example, control the allocation times of the character "奇" among the six Chinese characters "Museum of the Night" so that the successful times are 100. By this method, it is possible to both control the upper limit of the number of users who集齐the Chinese characters and not affect the user experience.

[0133] As shown Figure 6 in the figure, the process of controlling the collection of a specific Chinese character sequence by controlling the distribution times of a certain Chinese character can include the following steps: Step 601, Step 602, Step 603, Step 604, Step 605, Step 606 and Step 607;

[0134] In step 601, determine the target Chinese character sequence. For example, "Night at the Museum".

[0135] In step 602, set the initial probability P2 for the target Chinese character sequence to be collected.

[0136] In step 603, set the distribution times of a certain specific Chinese character to K; where K = 1,.... For example, the distribution times of the character "qi" is 2.

[0137] In step 604, randomly generate Chinese characters according to the probability P2 and K.

[0138] In step 605, calculate the actual probability P3 for the target Chinese character sequence to be collected according to the final actual generated Chinese character result.

[0139] In step 606, judge whether P3 is less than or equal to P2. If so, judge whether the actual distribution times of the specific Chinese character is greater than K. If so, recursively execute step 602; otherwise, execute step 607.

[0140] In step 607, return the randomly generated Chinese characters to the user and update the user database.

[0141] If the above process is written in Java code, the getRandomHanzi method will generate random Chinese character characters, not just the characters in "Night at the Museum". Therefore, if you want the randomly generated Chinese characters to be limited to several specific Chinese characters such as "Night at the Museum", you need to modify the getRandomHanzi method to make it only select from this limited character set.

[0142] First, ensure that the generated sequence always contains the six characters "Night at the Museum" (only the number of the character "qi" is fixed), and then add the other Chinese characters in "Night at the Museum" to the sequence first. By using a certain parameter in the function body to check whether to avoid generating results containing too many "qi" characters. The specific logic and probability setting of the function are as follows:

[0143] function randomFun(){

[0144] var yecount = context.getArg('yecount');

[0145] var str = 'Museum Night';

[0146] var result = "";

[0147] var totalProbability = 0.12;

[0148] for (var i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {

[0149] var randomNum = Math.random();

[0150] var charProbability = 1 / (str.length - i); / / Calculate the probability of each character

[0151] if (randomNum <= totalProbability) {

[0152] result += str.charAt(i);

[0153] totalProbability -= charProbability;

[0154] if (result == '奇' && yecount > 100) {

[0155] result = '博'; / / Here, restarting the randomFun() loop or making a recursive function call to generate a new random substring might be the best design choice.

[0156] }

[0157] context.setReturn('suijijieguo', result);

[0158] return;

[0159] }

[0160] }

[0161] if (result == "") {

[0162] randomFun();

[0163] }

[0164] }

[0165] randomFun();

[0166] This JavaScript code implements a function called randomFun. The goal of this function is to randomly generate a substring composed of characters from the given string "Night at the Museum". Input parameter: The function accepts a parameter called yecount, which is used within the function to check whether to avoid generating results that contain too many "qi" characters. Initialization: The str variable stores the original string "Night at the Museum" from which characters will be randomly selected. The result variable is used to store the final generated random substring. The totalProbability variable is set to 0.12, representing the initial random selection probability. Loop: The function traverses each character in str through a for loop. Random selection and probability: In each iteration of the loop, a random number randomNum between 0 and 1 is generated; the probability charProbability of the current character being selected is calculated, which is 1 divided by the number of remaining unselected characters. Character selection: If randomNum is less than or equal to totalProbability, the current character is selected and added to result; after each character is selected, totalProbability is subtracted by charProbability, so that as the loop progresses, the probability of selecting the next character gradually decreases. Special condition: If the generated result happens to be "qi" and yecount is greater than 100, then result is reset to "bo". This can be regarded as a strategy to avoid generating too many identical characters. Return result: Once a character is selected, the function sets a return value through context.setReturn('suijijieguo', result) and ends the function execution through the return statement. This function attempts to implement a probability-based random substring generator.

[0167] It can be seen that in the embodiments of this application, by controlling the number of times of a certain parameter to control the overall number of successful times that need to be controlled in the business, and by using the Java Collections shuffle method to achieve randomness to randomly reorder the list elements to work, the randomness and upper limit number predetermined in the business are ensured, thus solving the problem of being unable to control the number of successful times in various promotional business scenarios, improving the user experience and ensuring the winning rate.
