Live Stream Discussion Group Creation for Targeted User Interaction
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current live stream interaction methods, such as commenting, are monotonous and do not effectively enhance user interaction in live stream rooms.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for creating discussion groups within live stream rooms, where a primary user can invite secondary users to join based on shared interests or location, allowing for targeted communication and improved interaction through dedicated discussion and public areas.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If users comment or interact with the anchor in the live stream room, then user interaction is enabled, but the interaction becomes monotonous and reduces engagement between users
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the live stream room into multiple discussion groups, allowing users to interact within smaller, interest-based sub-communities rather than in a monolithic space. This segmentation enables diverse interaction modes (private messaging, group discussions, public comments) while maintaining overall user engagement variety.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces discussion groups as intermediary structures between individual users and the anchor. These groups serve as mediators that facilitate user-to-user interaction and user-to-anchor interaction through organized channels, transforming monotonous direct commenting into varied multi-channel communication.
2Adaptability or versatility
If a discussion group is created with multiple members, then user interaction and engagement are enhanced, but information overload may occur among members
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by creating interest-based discussion groups where information is tailored to specific local communities rather than broadcast uniformly. Each group has its own content context and member interests, allowing targeted information flow that reduces overload while maintaining high engagement within the specific group domain.
Solution Approach 2:
By segmenting the overall live stream audience into multiple smaller discussion groups based on interests, the system reduces information overload at the individual group level while maintaining overall engagement. Each group receives targeted information relevant to its members, preventing the broadcast-style overload that would occur in a single large group.

AI summary
A method for user communication in a live stream room, apparatus, electronic device and medium are provided. An implementation of the method may include: in response to a request for creating a discussion group from a primary user, determining target secondary users from other participants in the live stream room except the primary user; sending an invitation message to the target secondary users for inviting the target users to join the discussion group; and creating the discussion group, with the primary user and a target secondary user who confirms joining as members of the discussion group, and associating thereto a user identification of the primary user, a user identification of a target secondary user who confirms joining, and an identification of the discussion group, to conduct an inner-group discussion among the members of the discussion group on the basis of the discussion group.
