Solution Overview

Problem

Existing list flow implementations face challenges in accurately determining user interests, leading to poor information push accuracy and low efficiency in information acquisition, especially for new users, as they are exposed to mixed and unfamiliar information.

Innovation Solution

A method and apparatus that display a first list page with multiple items, switching to a second list page upon user interaction, where content recommendations are based on the triggered item's associated content, improving user interest capture and information relevance through real-time operational behavior analysis.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Quantity of substance

If a traditional list page displays multiple types of mixed information to users, then the quantity of information provided increases, but the information becomes unfamiliar and difficult for users to accept

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvequantity of informationVSAvoiduser acceptance difficulty
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments information into two distinct pages: a first list page displaying multiple types of mixed information, and a second list page dedicated to a single type of information triggered by user selection. This segmentation allows the system to provide abundant information while maintaining user comfort by isolating unfamiliar content from familiar content.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The second list page acts as an intermediary between the user and the specific information type they are interested in. When users trigger a list item on the first page, the system transitions to the second page which专门 displays information of that triggered type, serving as a buffer that makes information consumption more acceptable.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Quantity of substance

If comprehensive consultation feed flow displays a variety of mixed information, then the coverage of information increases, but it becomes difficult to promote high-quality information

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation coverageVSAvoidhigh-quality information promotion
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

By dividing the information display into two pages, the patent enables comprehensive information coverage on the first page while dedicating the second page to promoting high-quality information of a specific type, thus resolving the conflict between breadth and quality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The second list page applies local quality by focusing on a single information type with higher quality standards, while the first page maintains diverse information coverage. This allows different parts of the system to have different quality characteristics appropriate to their function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

3Productivity

If the system pushes information without accurate user interest determination, then the information push speed increases, but the information push accuracy deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation push speedVSAvoidinformation push accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by first displaying multiple information types on the first list page to understand user preferences through their selections, then using this learned information to accurately push relevant content on the second list page, thus improving accuracy without sacrificing speed.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system incorporates feedback by monitoring which list items users trigger on the first page, using this feedback to determine user interests, and then adjusting the information push on the second page accordingly, achieving both speed and accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

4Measurement precision

If users manually browse through list items to find interesting content, then the information selection accuracy improves, but the information acquisition efficiency decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation selection accuracyVSAvoidinformation acquisition time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by proactively pushing information of the triggered type on the second list page based on user's single selection, eliminating the need for users to manually browse through multiple items, thus maintaining accuracy while reducing time loss.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

AI summary

Provided are a list flow implementation method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a storage medium. The method is applied to a client and includes displaying a first list page in the screen display range, where the first list page includes at least two list items; and in response to detecting a first trigger action of a user on one of the at least two list items, switching, in the screen display range, to display a second list page corresponding to the triggered list item. The content recommendation strategy adopted by the second list page is a recommendation strategy determined based on the associated content of the triggered list item.
