Solution Overview

Problem

Users have increasing experience requirements for social networks, particularly in enhancing video interaction and tagging functionalities to improve user engagement and interaction.

Innovation Solution

A video processing method and apparatus that enables users to tag people in videos, display tagging results in-feed, and allow editing of tags after posting, with interactive interfaces for tagging and editing, and displaying tagging lists in response to user selections.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If video tagging functionality is added to enhance user interaction, then user engagement is improved, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevideo interaction functionalityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The tagging system is segmented into distinct functional modules: tagging interface module, tag storage module, and tag display module. This allows the complex tagging functionality to be broken down into manageable, independent components that can be developed and maintained separately, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining full functionality.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The tagging system is designed to work across multiple video types and user roles (creators and viewers). The same core tagging infrastructure supports different interaction modes (adding tags, editing tags, viewing tags), making the system versatile without requiring separate systems for each function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Ease of operation

If tagging results are displayed in-feed to improve user experience, then user engagement increases, but information processing load increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experienceVSAvoidinformation processing load
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSQuantity of substance

Solution Approach 1:

Tagging results are displayed selectively in the feed based on local conditions - only videos that have tags are marked with tag indicators, and full tag details are shown only when users interact with them. This localized display approach enhances user experience for tagged videos without overwhelming the entire feed with processing loads.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system displays partial tagging information (indicators or summaries) in the main feed to provide user experience benefits, while keeping the complete tagging data available on-demand when users click or interact with the video. This partial display reduces information processing load while maintaining ease of operation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action

AI summary

This disclosure relates to a video processing method, a video processing apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium. The video processing method includes: receiving a tagging result on at least one first user related to a video; displaying the tagging result in-feed; and in response to a selection instruction triggered by a second user on the tagging result displayed in-feed in the video, displaying a tagging list of the at least one first user.
