Contact Recommendation via Owner Age Detection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In terminals with image sharing capabilities, such as mobile phones and tablets, searching for contact information can be time-consuming and prone to errors when there are many contacts stored, hindering efficient image sharing.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that determine the age of the mobile terminal owner and use this information to recommend a candidate contact based on stored contact photos, displaying their contact information when a share instruction is received, thereby improving search speed and accuracy.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the terminal searches for contact information from a large number of stored contacts, then the completeness of contact selection is improved, but the search time increases and search accuracy decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by determining the user's age in advance and using this information to pre-filter and recommend candidate contacts before the actual sharing operation. This preliminary classification based on age reduces the search space, allowing the system to quickly present relevant contacts without searching through all stored contacts, thus resolving the contradiction between search completeness and search time.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the terminal stores a large number of contacts, then the coverage of potential sharing targets is improved, but the complexity of contact management increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system changes the parameter of contact selection from brute-force searching through all contacts to intelligent filtering based on age parameters. By extracting and utilizing the age attribute of contacts (comparing user age with contact ages), the system efficiently narrows down the candidate pool while maintaining comprehensive coverage of relevant sharing targets, thus reducing management complexity without sacrificing adaptability.

AI summary
The present disclosure, pertaining to the field of terminal technologies, relates to a method and apparatus for recommending contact information. The method may include: determining an age of an owner of a mobile terminal; determining, based on the determined age of the owner and stored contact photos of a plurality of contacts, a candidate contact from the plurality of contacts; and displaying, in response to receiving a share instruction with respect to a designated image, contact information of the determined candidate contact, the designated image being any image in a photo album to be shared. According to the present disclosure, one or more candidate contacts are determined from a plurality of contacts, and upon receipt of a share instruction with respect to a designated image, contact information of the determined candidate contact is displayed. This may improve speed and accuracy of searching for contact information, reduce search time, and enhance image sharing efficiency.
