Chat Message Consolidation for Group Chat Information Retrieval
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In instant messaging, users face high costs in obtaining information due to the abundance of messages, making it difficult to quickly locate relevant dialog information, especially in active or inactive group chats.
Innovation Solution
A message sending method that combines the content of a first chat message and a reply message into a second chat message, which is then sent to all participating chat accounts in a group chat or to the original sender in a single chat, reducing the burden on users by consolidating information.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If users read all chat messages to locate relevant information, then information completeness is improved, but time cost and energy cost increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and highlights key information from chat messages using natural language processing techniques. The system identifies important entities, events, and decisions from message content and presents them as condensed summaries, allowing users to quickly grasp essential information without reading entire message threads.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary processing of chat messages by pre-analyzing and tagging important information before user interaction. Messages are processed in advance to identify key elements such as action items, decisions, and important discussions, which are then organized and presented for efficient user review.
2Adaptability or versatility
If group chat activity increases to generate exchange value, then social interaction quality improves, but information overload worsens
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple chat messages into consolidated summary views that preserve essential information while reducing overall volume. Related messages are grouped together with synthesized summaries that capture key points, allowing users to understand group discussions without being overwhelmed by individual message details.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary processing layer between message generation and user display. This layer includes algorithms that filter, aggregate, and prioritize messages based on importance, user preferences, and contextual relevance, acting as a mediator that reduces information volume while maintaining quality interactions.
3Loss of information
If all chat messages are displayed individually, then message detail completeness is improved, but user processing efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments chat messages into different levels of detail presentation. Users can view condensed summaries for quick overview, and access detailed individual messages when needed. The interface divides information hierarchically, showing key points first with options to expand for complete details, thereby improving processing efficiency without losing message completeness.
Data Source
AI summary
A message sending method includes: displaying chat messages on a chat interface, which is one of a group chat interface and a single chat interface; when detecting a reply operation performed by a user on a first chat message in the chat messages, obtaining content of the first chat message and content of a reply message corresponding to the reply operation; combining the content of the first chat message and the content of the reply message into a second chat message; when the first chat message is on the group chat interface, sending the second chat message to a client corresponding to each chat account that participates in a group chat; and when the first chat message is on the single chat interface, sending the second chat message to a client corresponding to a chat account that posted the first chat message.
