[0022] Messaging is a key interactive behavior on the internet. For example, people can create conversations and send and receive messages through instant messaging services. Users can, for example, establish conversations with other contacts. However, these conversations are limited to interactions between user objects, making them unable to provide users with other desired content.

[0023] Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an interaction solution. According to the solution, a conversation interface for a target conversation can be presented, the target conversation comprising at least a target user object and a group of virtual objects, the group of virtual objects being added to the target conversation based on an add operation performed by a user object associated with the target conversation; a first message input by the target user object is received, the first message being associated with at least one virtual object in the group of virtual objects; and a second message from the at least one virtual object is presented in the conversation interface as a reply to the first message.

[0024] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can support users to add virtual objects that can interact with natural language to the conversation, and can interact with the virtual objects through message interaction, thereby improving the message interaction experience of the conversation.

[0025] Various example implementations of this solution are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Sample Environment

[0027] FIG1 shows a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented. As shown in FIG1 , the example environment 100 may include an electronic device 110 .

[0028] In this example environment 100, electronic device 110 may run an application 120 that supports interface interaction. Application 120 may be any suitable type of application for interface interaction, and examples thereof may include, but are not limited to, instant messaging applications, video applications, social applications, or other applications that provide services for conducting conversations with specific objects. User 140 may interact with application 120 via electronic device 110 and / or its attached devices.

[0029] In the environment 100 of FIG. 1 , if the application 120 is in an active state, the electronic device 110 may present an interface 150 for supporting interface interaction through the application 120 .

[0030] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 communicates with the server 130 to enable the provision of services for the application 120. The electronic device 110 can be any type of mobile terminal, fixed terminal or portable terminal, including a mobile phone, a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a notebook computer, a netbook computer, a tablet computer, a media computer, a multimedia tablet, a handheld computer, a portable game terminal, a VR / AR device, a personal communication system (PCS) device, a personal navigation device, a personal digital assistant (PDA), an audio / video player, a digital camera / camcorder, a positioning device, a television receiver, a radio broadcast receiver, an e-book device, a gaming device or any combination thereof, including accessories and peripherals of these devices or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 can also support any type of interface for the user (such as a "wearable" circuit, etc.).

[0031] The server 130 may be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system consisting of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communications, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content distribution networks, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. For example, the server 130 may include a computing system / server such as a mainframe, an edge computing node, a computing device in a cloud environment, and the like. The server 130 may provide background services for the application 120 that supports virtual scenes in the electronic device 110.

[0032] A communication connection may be established between the server 130 and the electronic device 110. The communication connection may be established in a wired or wireless manner. The communication connection may include, but is not limited to, a Bluetooth connection, a mobile network connection, a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connection, a Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) connection, etc., and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited in this respect. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the server 130 and the electronic device 110 may implement signaling interaction through the communication connection between the two.

[0033] It should be understood that the structure and function of the various elements in the environment 100 are described for illustrative purposes only and do not imply any limitation on the scope of the present disclosure.

[0034] Some example embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with continued reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Adding a virtual object to the session

[0036] An example process according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] Figure 2A shows an example interface according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.As shown in Figure 2A, interface 200A may be a conversation interface of conversation 205 (eg, group chat A).

[0038] It should be understood that although the following figures use group chat as an example of a session, such a session may also include, for example, a single chat session (e.g., a session between two members). Alternatively, such a session may also include a group chat session with one or more members. For example, some group chat sessions may only have one or two members due to reasons such as initial creation or group member departure. The interface shown in FIG2A may be provided, for example, by a terminal device of a user object (e.g., “User A”) in session 205.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 2A , in the interface 200A, the electronic device 110 may provide an adding entry 210 for adding one or more virtual objects to the conversation 205 .

[0040] For example, after receiving a selection for the add entry 210, the electronic device 110 may present an interface 200B as shown in FIG2B . As shown in FIG2B , in the interface 200B, the electronic device 110 may present a group of candidate virtual objects. For example, the electronic device 110 may display, in the add panel 215, candidate virtual objects 220-1, 220-2, and 220-3 (individually or collectively referred to as candidate virtual objects 220 or a group of candidate virtual objects 220) that can be added to the session 205.

[0041] In some embodiments, such a set of virtual candidate virtual objects 220 may be, for example, one or more candidate virtual objects in a set of candidate virtual objects that can be added to a session in the platform. The candidate virtual objects may be provided by the platform or created by a user.

[0042] As an example, the electronic device 110 may also provide a search control in the add panel 215 to support the user to input a keyword to search for a candidate virtual object matching the keyword from the candidate virtual object set.

[0043] In some embodiments, electronic device 110 may, for example, present descriptive information associated with candidate virtual object 220. As shown in FIG2B , descriptive information for candidate virtual object 220 may be presented in an add panel. Such descriptive information may include, for example, identification information of candidate virtual object 220. Such identification information may include a textual identifier, such as the name of candidate virtual object 220, or an image representation, such as an avatar of candidate virtual object 220.

[0044] Additionally, such description information may further include summary information. The summary information may include, for example, summary content of the candidate virtual object 220 , such as an introduction to the candidate virtual object 220 .

[0045] In some embodiments, such description information may also include addition information of the candidate virtual object 220. The addition information may, for example, indicate the number of times the candidate virtual object has been added to the session. For example, as shown in FIG2B , the electronic device 110 may display that “Object 1” was added by “XX people”.

[0046] In some examples, the plurality of candidate virtual objects 220 may be sorted accordingly, for example, based on their added information.

[0047] In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can help users more quickly locate virtual objects they are interested in. In addition, embodiments of the present disclosure can also recommend expected virtual objects to users by showing the attention level (e.g., number of additions) of each virtual object.

[0048] In some embodiments, the candidate virtual objects 220 may be implemented based on a language model, which may be trained based on training data associated with the corresponding subject matter, so that the candidate virtual objects 220 can support natural language interaction. In some scenarios, the candidate virtual objects 220 may also be referred to as digital humans, digital assistants, and the like.

[0049] For example, candidate virtual objects 220-1 to 220-3 can be trained based on training data associated with different topics, so that different candidate virtual objects 220 have different language processing capabilities. It is understandable that the training data of a topic can be text corpus associated with a preset virtual object, etc.

[0050] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also support the user to initiate a request to add a virtual object in other appropriate ways. For example, the user may initiate a request to add a virtual object through the member management interface of the session 205 .

[0051] As an example, the electronic device 110 may receive selections of the candidate virtual object 220-1 and the candidate virtual object 220-3, and may add the candidate virtual object 220-1 and the candidate virtual object 220-3 to the session 205 by clicking an invitation button below (e.g., an “Invite to Join” button).

[0052] In some embodiments, an upper limit on the number of virtual objects that can be included in each session can also be set. As an example, each session can add a maximum of three virtual objects. In this case, if the number of candidate virtual objects selected by the user through the add panel 215 does not exceed the maximum number that can be added to the current session, the "Invite to Join" button can be in an interactive state, for example.

[0053] On the contrary, if the number of candidate virtual objects selected by the user through the add panel 215 exceeds the maximum number that can be added in the current session, the "Invite to Join" button may be disabled, and a prompt may be given, for example, "You can add up to X more virtual objects."

[0054] Further, after the candidate virtual object 220 - 1 (eg, object 1 ) and the candidate virtual object 220 - 3 (eg, object 3 ) are added to the session 205 , the electronic device 110 may present an interface 200C as shown in FIG. 2C .

[0055] As shown in FIG. 2C , the electronic device 110 may present a reminder in the interface 200C that the candidate virtual object 220 - 1 (eg, Object 1 ) and the candidate virtual object 220 - 3 (eg, Object 3 ) are added to the conversation 205 .

[0056] Additionally, the electronic device 110 may also present at least one message from the added candidate virtual object 220 - 1 (eg, object 1 ) and the candidate virtual object 220 - 3 (eg, object 3 ) in the interface 200C, for example, message 225 - 1 and message 225 - 2 .

[0057] Such messages 225-1 and 225-2 can be, for example, greeting messages, and different virtual objects can be associated with different greeting messages. Accordingly, a greeting message can be determined from the greeting message set corresponding to the virtual object and sent to the conversation 205. In this way, different virtual objects can provide conversation messages of different styles, thereby improving the message interaction experience.

[0058] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG2C , when one or more virtual objects have been added to the conversation 205, the electronic device 110 may update the add entry 210 to the interaction entry 230 to support interaction between the user and the added virtual objects. The specific process of the interaction will be described in detail below with reference to FIG3A to FIG3F .

[0059] 2D , the electronic device 110 may further present an indicator 240 regarding the update in association with the add entry 235 based on the update of the candidate virtual object set that can be added to the session 205. For example, if the number of newly added candidate virtual objects in the candidate virtual object set exceeds a threshold, the electronic device 110 may present the indicator 240 in association with the add entry 235.

[0060] In some further embodiments, as shown in FIG2E , after at least one candidate virtual object is added to the session 205, if the number of virtual objects added to the session reaches an upper limit, the electronic device 110 may, for example, adjust the add entry 210 to a reminder element 245 as shown in FIG2E to present a reminder that the virtual object cannot be added.

[0061] Based on the process described above, embodiments of the present disclosure can support users adding one or more virtual objects to a conversation to support initiating interactions with the virtual objects in the conversation. Thus, embodiments of the present disclosure can enrich the types of conversation interactions and enhance user participation in the conversation.

[0062] Interacting with virtual objects in a conversation

[0063] The process of interacting with a virtual object according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below with further reference to FIG. 3A to FIG. 3F .

[0064] Figure 3A shows an example interface according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in Figure 3A, interface 300A can be a conversation interface (e.g., group chat A). Exemplarily, such a conversation can include at least one user object and at least one virtual object.

[0065] As described above with reference to FIG. 2A to FIG. 2E , such at least one virtual object may be added to the session based on an adding operation of a user object associated with the session, for example.

[0066] 3A may include two virtual objects, for example, "Object 1" and "Object 3." It should be understood that such virtual objects may be added by the current user (e.g., User A) or by other appropriate conversation participants (e.g., User B).

[0067] Exemplarily, the interface 300A may be provided by a terminal device of user A, for example.

[0068] As shown in FIG3A , the interface 300A may include, for example, an input control 310 to support the user to interact with other members in the conversation by inputting information such as text, images, voice, and emoticons.

[0069] In some embodiments, the interface 300A may include an interaction portal 305. Such an interaction portal 305 may be used to initiate interaction with a virtual object in a conversation, for example.

[0070] For example, upon receiving a selection regarding the interactive portal 305, the electronic device 110 may display an interface 300B as shown in FIG3B . As shown in FIG3B , the electronic device 110 may present a group of virtual objects that have been added to the conversation, such as a virtual object 315-1 (e.g., object 1) and a virtual object 315-2 (e.g., object 3).

[0071] Additionally, the electronic device 110 may also present an add entry 230. Upon receiving a selection regarding the add entry 230, the electronic device 110 may correspondingly present an add panel 215 as discussed with reference to FIG. 2B to add a new virtual object to the session.

[0072] As an example, upon receiving a selection of virtual object 315-1, electronic device 110 may present interface 300C as shown in FIG3C . As shown in FIG3C , in interface 300C, electronic device 110 may present reference information for at least one selected virtual object in input control 310. For example, based on the selection of virtual object 315-1, electronic device 110 may automatically fill in reference information (e.g., “@object 1”) in input control 310 to indicate that the message currently input by the user is associated with the selected virtual object 315-1.

[0073] Furthermore, the electronic device 110 may receive content input by the user via the input control 310. Accordingly, upon receiving the sending instruction, as shown in FIG3D , the electronic device 110 may display a first message 330 determined based on the reference information and the target content input by the user in the conversation interface of the conversation.

[0074] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also support the user to initiate interaction with the virtual object in other ways.

[0075] For example, using FIG3A as an example, electronic device 110 may receive a user's preset operation regarding identification information of at least one virtual object (e.g., "Object 1" or "Object 3"), thereby automatically populating corresponding reference information in input control 310. For example, upon receiving a user's long press operation on the avatar of "Object 1," electronic device 110 may display interface 300C as shown in FIG3C , where input control 310 may be automatically populated with reference information, such as "@Object 1." Similarly, electronic device 110 may further obtain a first message 330 from "User A" via input control 310.

[0076] In other embodiments, electronic device 110 may also receive reference information directly input by the user using input control 310. For example, the user may directly enter "@object 1" to indicate that the message to be entered is associated with virtual object 315-1. In some embodiments, after the user enters preset characters in input control 310, electronic device 11 may present a group of virtual objects already added to the conversation and other target objects within the conversation, thereby allowing the user to select the associated virtual object.

[0077] In other embodiments, such reference information may have other appropriate formats or content forms. For example, if the first message 330 input by the user includes a content portion (i.e., reference information) associated with the virtual object 315-1, the first message 330 may be determined to be associated with the virtual object 315-1.

[0078] For example, the virtual object 315-1 may be associated with a preset identifier, or the user may configure the identifier of the virtual object 315-1. Accordingly, if the first message 330 includes such an identifier, the first message 330 may be determined to be related to the virtual object 315-1. In other words, the first message 330 indicates that the user is interacting with the virtual object 315-1.

[0079] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3C, when reference information (e.g., "@object 1") about a specific virtual object (e.g., virtual object 315-1) is included in the virtual control 310, the electronic device 110 can also present a set of candidate input items in association with the input control 310, for example, candidate input item 325-1 and candidate input item 325-2.

[0080] Furthermore, based on the selection of a target input item (e.g., candidate input item 325-1) from a group of candidate input items (e.g., candidate input item 325-1 and candidate input item 325-2, individually or collectively referred to as candidate input item 325), the electronic device 110 can automatically add target content corresponding to the target input item in the input control 310, thereby realizing quick input of messages.

[0081] In some embodiments, such candidate input items 325 may correspond to the virtual objects indicated by the reference information. That is, the reference information for different virtual objects in the input control 310 may trigger the presentation of different candidate input items.

[0082] In some embodiments, such candidate input items 325 may include one or more preset input items corresponding to the corresponding virtual object. For example, a set of input items may be configured in association with each virtual object, and the electronic device 110 may randomly present one or more of these input items as candidate input items. Optionally, with sufficient user authorization, the candidate input items associated with the virtual object indicated by the reference information may be updated in real time based on the user's input in the input control 310.

[0083] In some other embodiments, such candidate input items 325 may also include recommended input items determined based on interaction information of the corresponding virtual object. For example, interaction messages between different users and the virtual object may be clustered to determine messages that users input more frequently as recommended input items.

[0084] In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can improve the efficiency of interaction between users and virtual objects.

[0085] 3D , after a first message 330 from "User A" is sent to the conversation, the electronic device 110 may also correspondingly present, in the interface 300D, a second message 335 from at least one virtual object (e.g., Object 1) associated with the first message 330 as a reply to the first message 330. For example, the second message 335 may include reference information of the reply object, such as "@User A".

[0086] Based on this approach, the embodiments of the present disclosure can support users in conveniently initiating interactions with virtual objects in various types of conversations, thereby improving the efficiency of information interaction.

[0087] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also present, in association with the second message 335 from the virtual object 315-1, a reply entry 338 for replying to the second message 335. Accordingly, upon receiving a selection of the reply entry 338, the electronic device 110 may present reference information for the virtual object 315 (e.g., "@object 1") in the input control 310 of the interface 300D.

[0088] Therefore, the embodiments of the present disclosure can support users to conduct multiple rounds of dialogue interactions with virtual objects in a conversation, thereby improving the depth of information interaction.

[0089] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3E, the first message 340 from "User A" may also be associated with multiple virtual objects. For example, the first message 340 may simultaneously mention virtual object 315-1 ("Object 1") and virtual object 315-2 ("Object 3").

[0090] Accordingly, the plurality of virtual objects 315 - 1 and virtual object 315 - 3 may each respond to the first message and send message 345 and message 350 , respectively.

[0091] In some embodiments, such a first message 340 may also instruct multiple virtual objects to interact on a target topic in a conversation. Taking FIG3E as an example, the first message 340 may instruct virtual object 315-1 (“Object 1”) and virtual object 315-2 (“Object 3”) to interact on the topic of “introducing each other.”

[0092] In this case, the message 345 from the virtual object 315-1 and the message 350 from the virtual object 315-2 may both be associated with the target topic indicated in the first message 340. For example, the message 345 and the message 350 may be contents of self-introduction.

[0093] In some embodiments, the message 345 from the virtual object 315-1 may also be related to another virtual object 315-2 mentioned in the first message 340. Similarly, the message 350 from the virtual object 315-2 may also be related to another virtual object 315-1 mentioned in the first message 340. For example, the message 350 and the message 340 may include reference information of each other.

[0094] For example, the self-introduction message 345 of the virtual object 315-1 may be based on one or more characteristics of the other virtual object 315-2. For example, such a message 345 may include content such as "Unlike you being good at XX, I am more proficient in YY."

[0095] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can not only support quick interaction between user objects and virtual objects in a conversation, but also support interaction between different virtual objects, thereby improving the richness of the conversation.

[0096] In some embodiments, electronic device 110 may also present an interface 300F, also referred to as a viewing interface, as shown in FIG3F based on the user's viewing request. As shown in FIG3F , interface 300F may present one or more virtual objects that have been added to the session, such as “Object 1” and “Object 3”.

[0097] Furthermore, electronic device 110 may also present one or more interaction portals associated with the virtual object. In some embodiments, if the current user has preset permissions associated with the current session (e.g., session management permissions), electronic device 110 may present a removal portal 355 associated with the virtual object. Accordingly, if removal portal 355 is selected, electronic device 110 may remove the corresponding virtual object, e.g., "Object 1," from the session.

[0098] In some embodiments, the interactive portal provided by the electronic device 110 may include, for example, a portal for guiding to a viewing interface of a corresponding virtual object. For example, such an interactive portal may be associated with an avatar or name of the virtual object. For example, a user may click on the avatar or name of the virtual object to jump to the personal homepage of the virtual object.

[0099] In some embodiments, the interaction portal provided by the electronic device 110 may include a portal 355 for guiding to a conversation interface with a corresponding virtual object. For example, a user may initiate a private chat session with the virtual object by clicking on the portal 355.

[0100] In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can more efficiently manage virtual objects in a session.

[0101] Example message generation process

[0102] 3A to 3F , a scenario in which a user interacts with a virtual object in a conversation is described. A mechanism for generating messages from a virtual object will be further described below.

[0103] Taking FIG3D as an example, after receiving a first message 330 from a user, electronic device 110 may receive a second message generated based on the first message. It should be understood that any appropriate electronic device (including but not limited to electronic device 110 or an appropriate remote device) may generate the second message based on the first message. For ease of description, such an electronic device may be referred to as a generating device.

[0104] Exemplarily, the electronic device 110 may provide the first message to a generating device (e.g., electronic device 110, server, or corresponding interface device) associated with the virtual object 315-1 (i.e., object 1) to obtain a second message generated by the generating device based on the first message.

[0105] In some embodiments, the generating device may also consider a set of interaction messages between the user (e.g., user A) and the virtual object 315-1 when generating the second message. Such a set of interaction messages may include, for example, previous interaction messages between the user and the virtual object 315-1.

[0106] As an example, the generating device may maintain a conversation between the user and the virtual object 315 - 1 , and upon receiving the first message 330 , may synthetically generate a second message 335 as a reply based on existing messages in the conversation and the first message 330 .

[0107] In some embodiments, the set of interaction messages considered by the generating device when generating the second message 335 may include interaction messages between the user and the virtual object 335 - 1 within a target period before the first message 330 .

[0108] In some examples, this target period can be a preset period. For example, the generating device can clear existing messages in the conversation according to a predetermined time period, so that the generating device only considers interactive messages within the most recent period. In this way, embodiments of the present disclosure can reduce storage pressure on the generating device and improve information management efficiency.

[0109] In some embodiments, such a target time period may also be determined based on a configuration operation of a user object. For example, a user may configure a range of other interactive messages that a corresponding virtual object can base its message interaction on.

[0110] In some further embodiments, considering that different user objects may interact with the same virtual object in a session, the generation device corresponding to the virtual object may, for example, maintain an independent session for each user, so that the generation of the second message 335 can be independent of the interaction messages between other user objects other than the target user object and the virtual object.

[0111] Therefore, the embodiments of the present disclosure can improve the independence of interactions between different users and virtual objects, thereby improving the reliability of session interactions in multi-user sessions.

[0112] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may further provide a second context message to the generating device, so that the generating device further generates a second message 335 based on the second context message. The second context message may include, for example, a second set of interactive messages preceding the first message 330 in the conversation.

[0113] In some embodiments, if the relevant users in the conversation know and obtain explicit permission from the relevant users, the electronic device 110 may further provide a predetermined number of messages before the first message 330 to the generating device. Such a predetermined number of messages may include, but are not limited to: interaction messages between user objects, interaction messages between the current user object and the current virtual object, interaction messages between the current user object and other virtual objects, interaction messages between other user objects and virtual objects, and the like.

[0114] In this way, the embodiments of the present disclosure can provide the generating device with context information associated with the first message 330 , thereby helping the generating device to generate a second message 335 of higher quality, thereby improving the efficiency of message interaction.
