Solution Overview

Problem

Current information processing technologies face issues with inaccurate information positioning, leading to user interface clutter and inefficient resource usage, as well as insufficient timeliness and attention for valuable information, resulting in wasted human effort and resource consumption.

Innovation Solution

An information processing method that allows users to pull and display social groups, receive and display targeted multi-media information within these groups, using feedback to refine content pushing and reduce clutter, while maintaining a uniform user interface and controlling information exposure.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Adaptability or versatility

If second multi-media information is shared to all users, then information coverage is improved, but user interface clutter and resource waste increase

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation coverageVSAvoidinterface clutter
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by differentiating information delivery based on user groups. Instead of uniformly pushing information to all users, the system identifies specific target users or user groups and pushes information locally to them. This is achieved through user tagging, interest profiling, and group-based information delivery mechanisms that ensure information reaches only relevant users, thereby maintaining interface cleanliness while achieving adequate coverage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The patent segments the user base into different groups based on interests, behaviors, and characteristics. By dividing the universal user set into segmented subsets, the system can push second multi-media information to specific segments rather than all users. This segmentation is implemented through user profiling, tagging systems, and group-based delivery mechanisms that reduce unnecessary information exposure to individual users.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Productivity

If second multi-media information is pushed to all users, then information dissemination is improved, but network bandwidth and system resources are wasted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation disseminationVSAvoidnetwork bandwidth
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements preliminary action by pre-establishing user profiles, interest tags, and grouping mechanisms before information pushing occurs. The system performs advance user analysis, creates interest models, and prepares target user lists in advance. When second multi-media information needs to be pushed, the system can quickly identify and deliver to pre-segmented target groups, avoiding the need to broadcast to all users and thereby conserving network bandwidth while maintaining efficient dissemination.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The patent employs feedback mechanisms where user interactions with pushed information (clicks, views, engagements) are collected and analyzed. This feedback is used to continuously refine user profiles, adjust interest models, and optimize future information pushing strategies. The feedback loop enables the system to learn from past performance and improve the precision of information delivery over time, reducing wasted bandwidth while enhancing dissemination effectiveness.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Quantity of substance

If second multi-media information is shared widely, then information availability is improved, but information timeliness and attention decrease

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinformation availabilityVSAvoidinformation timeliness
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by dynamically adjusting information delivery parameters such as timing, frequency, and target selection based on user behavior patterns and information characteristics. Instead of static widespread distribution, the system modifies delivery parameters in real-time to optimize when and to whom information is pushed. This includes timing information delivery to coincide with user activity peaks and adjusting push frequency based on user engagement levels, thereby maintaining information availability while improving timeliness and attention.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

AI summary

Disclosed are an information processing method, a terminal, and a server. The information processing method is applied to the terminal. The method includes: pulling a social group formed by a first user and at least one second user, the second user and the first user belonging to the same social group; receiving and displaying, in the social group by the first user, second multi-media information propagated by a third user, and/or propagated second multi-media information formed based on interaction of the at least one second user in the social group for the second multi-media information; and receiving, by the first user, first prompt information sent by the at least one second user, and displaying the first prompt information on a user interface of the terminal, the first prompt information being prompt information used for triggering entering, via the user interface of the terminal, a first prompt page related to the second multi-media information.
