[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, including, but not limited to, video applications, social applications, or other suitable applications. User 140 may interact with application 120 via electronic device 110 and / or its attached devices. As an example, the user may input a query request based on application 120. The electronic device may provide the user with targeted response content in response to the query request.

[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 interface interaction 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] Example Process

[0036] FIG2 shows a flow chart of an example interaction process 200 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The process 200 may be implemented at the electronic device 110. The process 200 is described below with reference to FIG1.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 2 , at block 210 , the electronic device 110 receives a query request from a user.

[0038] In some embodiments, the query request may be a query request based on a specific topic, which may involve any appropriate field such as medical field, legal field, etc. The query request may be in any appropriate form, such as a text request or an audio request.

[0039] In some embodiments, the query request may be input into the electronic device 110 by a user.

[0040] At block 220 , the electronic device 110 displays a plurality of interactive questions associated with the query request.

[0041] In some embodiments, a plurality of interaction questions associated with the query request are generated based on the query request.

[0042] In some embodiments, the multiple interactive questions are configured to obtain additional information about the query request. For example, the multiple interactive questions can be used to guide the user to enter more query details so as to more accurately generate the target response content corresponding to the query request based on the query details.

[0043] In some embodiments, at least one of the multiple interactive questions displayed by the electronic device 110 may be generated based on the first model deployed in the server 130. As an example, all of the multiple interactive questions displayed by the electronic device 110 may be generated based on the first model deployed in the server 130. As another example, some of the multiple interactive questions displayed by the electronic device 110 may be generated based on the first model deployed in the server 130, while other interactive questions may be generated based on other appropriate methods, such as other interactive questions that are predetermined for a specific topic corresponding to the query request.

[0044] The following describes a process of obtaining at least one interaction question based on the first model.

[0045] In some embodiments, electronic device 110 may send a query request to server 130. Based on the received query request, the service may generate first input information for a first model. Server 130 may input the first input information into the first model to obtain first output information from the first model. Server 130 may determine at least one interaction question based on the first output information.

[0046] It should be understood that such a first model may, for example, include any appropriate machine learning model that can be trained to perform the task of generating interactive questions, and the present disclosure is not intended to be limited in this regard.

[0047] In some embodiments, the electronic device may input the query request into the first model to obtain the at least one interactive question output by the first model.

[0048] In order to improve the accuracy of interactive question generation, in some embodiments, the first input information may further include a prompt for guiding the first model to generate questions.

[0049] As an example, the first input information may include configuration information about the first model, where this configuration information is associated with the subject of the query request. The configuration information indicates that the first model has configuration capabilities that match this configuration information, so that the first model outputs interaction questions associated with the subject of the query request. This configuration information can be for legal or medical fields, and so on, which are not detailed here.

[0050] As another example, the first input information may also include knowledge information. The knowledge information may be a knowledge base associated with the subject of the query request. This knowledge information is used to instruct the first model to output an interactive question associated with the subject of the query request based on information contained in the knowledge base associated with the subject of the query request.

[0051] To ensure the standardization and structuring of the output information of the first model, in some embodiments, the first input information may further include constraint information regarding the first output information of the first model. The constraint information may include at least a structured example of the first output information, instructing the first model to output a standardized or structured interaction question based on the constraint information. For example, the constraint information may indicate the format, type, size, quantity, etc. of the output information generated by the first model.

[0052] In some embodiments, the first output information may indicate the at least one interaction problem.The electronic device 110 may determine the at least one interaction problem based on the first output information of the first model.

[0053] During the interaction process with the user, the answer information input by the user for the previous interactive question is related to what the next interactive question is. In order to more accurately generate at least one interactive question so as to obtain more query detail information based on these interactive questions, in some embodiments, the at least one interactive question generated by the server 130 may include a first interactive question and a second interactive question, wherein the second interactive question is generated based on the query request, the first interactive question and the first answer information of the first interactive question.

[0054] The following describes how to display multiple interactive questions on the electronic device 110.

[0055] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may display multiple question controls for obtaining answers to multiple interactive questions to the user. The question controls may be input boxes for inputting answers to the interactive questions, or selection controls for various candidate answers.

[0056] As an example, the electronic device 110 may display an input box for inputting an answer to the interactive question to the user, so that the user can input the answer to the interactive question in the input box. One interactive question may correspond to one input box.

[0057] As another example, the electronic device 110 may display a selection control for each candidate answer corresponding to each interactive question to the user, so that the user can select the corresponding answer by clicking the selection control. One interactive question may correspond to multiple candidate answers.

[0058] It should be noted that the first output information of the first model can also indicate a group of candidate answers to the at least one interactive question, where one interactive question corresponds to a group of candidate answers, that is, each candidate answer corresponding to each interactive question can be generated by the first model.

[0059] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may simultaneously display multiple question controls for obtaining answers to multiple interactive questions to the user.

[0060] For example, if the multiple interactive questions include interactive question 1, interactive question 2, and interactive question 3, the electronic device 110 can simultaneously display question control 1 for obtaining the answer to interactive question 1, question control 2 for obtaining the answer to interactive question 2, and question control 3 for obtaining the answer to interactive question 3.

[0061] In some other embodiments, the electronic device 110 may display to the user a second question control for inputting an answer to another of the multiple interactive questions after the user uses the first question control to input an answer to one of the multiple interactive questions. That is, the question controls for obtaining answers to the various interactive questions may be displayed one after another on the electronic device 110.

[0062] For example, if the multiple interactive questions include interactive question 1 and interactive question 2, the electronic device 110 may first display question control 1 for obtaining the answer to interactive question 1. After the electronic device 110 obtains the answer to interactive question 1 input by the user using question control 1, it displays question control 2 for the answer to interactive question 2.

[0063] As shown in FIG3 , electronic device 110 may present, for example, interface 300A, which may display interactive question 1. For example, for interactive question 1, interface 300A may display selection controls for candidate answers corresponding to interactive question 1, including a selection control 310 corresponding to a "first answer," a selection control 320 corresponding to a "second answer," and a selection control 330 corresponding to a "third answer." A user may select an answer to interactive question 1 by clicking on the selection controls corresponding to the candidate answers. For example, the user may select selection control 330 corresponding to the "third answer."

[0064] After receiving the user's selection of an answer to interactive question 1, electronic device 110 may display interface 300B, which may display question controls corresponding to interactive question 2. For example, for interactive question 2, interface 300B may display selection controls for candidate answers corresponding to interactive question 2, including a selection control 340 corresponding to a "fourth answer" and a selection control 350 corresponding to a "fifth answer." The user may select an answer to interactive question 2 by clicking on the selection controls corresponding to the candidate answers. For example, the user may select selection control 350 corresponding to the "fifth answer."

[0065] It should be noted that if some of the at least one interactive question of the first model can be generated based on the answer information of other interactive questions, that is, a set of candidate answers to the at least one interactive question are not simultaneously indicated in the first output information output by the first model at one time, but the first model outputs the first output information in real time, and this real-time first output information only indicates a set of candidate answers to some of the interactive questions, where this set of candidate answers to some of the interactive questions can be partial information corresponding to the target interactive question. The subsequent electronic device can also continue to obtain the real-time first input information based on a portion of the information, and obtain the next real-time first output information output by the first model based on the real-time first output information and the first model. The next real-time first output information may also only indicate a set of candidate answers to some of the interactive questions, and the partial information corresponding to the interactive questions indicated in the real-time first output information each time is different.

[0066] In order to improve the efficiency of interaction, in some embodiments, if the real-time first output information of the first model includes partial information corresponding to the target interaction question, the electronic device can continue to obtain the real-time first input information while also providing a question control corresponding to the target interaction question based on the partial information. That is, the electronic device can display the question control corresponding to the target interaction question while generating partial information corresponding to other interaction questions.

[0067] In block 230 , the electronic device 110 provides target response content to the query request.

[0068] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may provide the user with target response content determined based on the query request and the obtained answer information of each interactive question, wherein the answer information is determined based on the user's operation.

[0069] In other embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also provide the user with an initial response to the query request, as well as target response content determined based on the query request and the obtained answers to the interactive questions. The initial response content may be content obtained before the answers to the interactive questions are obtained, and may be content obtained based on the query request.

[0070] The interactive method disclosed herein can be applied to any appropriate scenario, such as a search scenario, a dialogue scenario, etc., and the initial response content is displayed differently for different scenarios.

[0071] As an example, in a search scenario, the initial response content may include the search content provided on the search results page. The search content may be content obtained in any appropriate manner, such as content predetermined for the interactive question. The search results page may also display multiple question controls corresponding to multiple interactive questions. The user may enter answer information corresponding to each interactive question using the multiple question controls corresponding to the multiple interactive questions. The electronic device 110 may display the target response content generated based on the query request and the obtained answer information for the multiple interactive questions on the search results page.

[0072] As shown in FIG4A , electronic device 110 may present a search results page 400A, which may display initial response content 410. This initial response content is the search content corresponding to query request 1, which was found after a user entered query request 1 in input box 420. The search results page may also display selection controls corresponding to multiple candidate answers for interactive question 1 and multiple candidate answers for interactive question 2. For example, the selection controls for the candidate answers for interactive question 1 include a selection control 310 for "First Answer," a selection control 320 for "Second Answer," and a selection control 330 for "Third Answer." For interactive question 2, interface 300B may display selection controls for the candidate answers for interactive question 2, including a selection control 340 for "Fourth Answer," and a selection control 350 for "Fifth Answer." For example, a user can select an answer to interactive question 1 or interactive question 2 by clicking on selection controls 310 for "First Answer" and 340 for "Fourth Answer." The electronic device 110 may display the target response content 430 generated based on the query request 1, the “first answer” and the “fourth answer” on this search result page.

[0073] As another example, in a conversation scenario, the initial response content may also include a message displayed in a conversation interface with a virtual object, and the conversation interface also provides multiple question controls corresponding to multiple interactive questions, where the virtual object may be a non-player character. The user can enter the answer information corresponding to each interactive question based on the multiple question controls. The electronic device 110 can display the target response content generated based on the query request and the obtained answers to the multiple interactive questions on this conversation interface.

[0074] As shown in FIG4B , electronic device 110 may present a conversation interface 400B with a virtual object. This conversation interface 400B may display initial response content 410, which may be the response content corresponding to query request 1 obtained after a user enters query request 1 in input box 440. The conversation interface may also display selection controls corresponding to multiple candidate answers for interactive question 1 and multiple candidate answers for interactive question 2. For example, conversation interface 400B may display selection controls for candidate answers for interactive question 1, including a selection control 310 for "first answer," a selection control 320 for "second answer," and a selection control 330 for "third answer." For interactive question 2, conversation interface 400B may also display selection controls for candidate answers for interactive question 2, including a selection control 340 for "fourth answer," and a selection control 350 for "fifth answer." For example, the user can select answers to interactive question 1 and interactive question 2 by clicking selection controls 310 for "first answer" and 340 for "fourth answer." The electronic device 110 may display the target response content 430 generated based on the query request 1, the “first answer” and the “fourth answer” on this search result page.

[0075] In some embodiments, the target response content may be generated based on the second model deployed in the server 130 . The generation process of the target response content is described below.

[0076] In some embodiments, server 130 may generate second input information for a second model based on the query request, multiple interactive questions, and the answers to the multiple interactive questions. Server 130 may input this second input information into the second model to obtain second output information of the second model. Server 130 may determine target response content for the query request based on the second output information of the second model.

[0077] It should be understood that such a second model may, for example, include any appropriate machine learning model that can be trained to perform the task of generating responsive content, and the present disclosure is not intended to be limited in this regard.

[0078] In some embodiments, the target response content may include text content, which is used to answer the question indicated by the query request.

[0079] In other embodiments, the target response content may include text content and image content. The image content is used to depict a scene associated with the query request. For example, if the query request corresponds to a legal topic, the image content may be used to depict an image of a scene that matches the legal topic.

[0080] It should be noted that, in addition to text and image content, the target response content may also be in other forms, such as audio or video content, etc., which will not be elaborated here.

[0081] According to the disclosed embodiments, the target response content is generated based on the answers to multiple interactive questions and the query request entered by the user. The answers to the multiple interactive questions include more detailed query information, thereby improving the accuracy of the generated target response content. Furthermore, the target response content better meets the user's needs, enhancing the user's interactive experience.
