Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a network architecture according to an embodiment of the present invention. The network architecture may include a server 100 and a plurality of terminal devices (as shown in fig. 1, specifically, including a terminal device 200a, a terminal device 200b, and a terminal device 200c), where the server 100 may communicate with each terminal device through a network, each terminal device may install an instant messaging application (e.g., a WeChat), and the server 100 may be a background server corresponding to the instant messaging application, so that each terminal device may communicate with the server 100 through a client corresponding to the instant messaging application, and for example, each terminal device may perform instant chat through other terminal devices of the server. The terminal device may include a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a handheld computer, a Mobile Internet Device (MID), a Point Of Sale (POS) machine, and a wearable device (e.g., a smart watch, a smart bracelet, etc.). Each terminal device can create a group in the instant messaging application, wherein a group can be understood as a platform for bringing together people with the same hobbies or characteristics to chat and communicate. Taking the terminal device 200a as an example, the terminal device 200a may pull a plurality of buddies to the same wechat group (i.e., group), and when the terminal device 200a sends a message in the wechat group, the terminal devices of other users in the wechat group may all receive the message through the server 100, so as to implement multi-user co-chat.

The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for generating and displaying a group avatar with high efficiency, and specifically, refer to fig. 2, which is a scene diagram of a group avatar generation and display process provided by the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, in this scenario, taking the terminal device 200a and the server 100 in fig. 1 as an example, after the WeChat interface is opened, the terminal device 200a first displays message columns corresponding to "basketball group", "subscription number", and "dad" in the terminal display interface, and at this time, no avatar is displayed in the group avatar display area 300 of "basketball group", so that the terminal device 200a can send a group avatar acquisition request to the server 100 to request the "basketball group" avatar. The server 100 may determine that the group to be requested is a "basketball group" according to the group avatar obtaining request, the server 100 further counts the number of users in the "basketball group", and if the upper limit of the number of user avatars that can be displayed in the group avatar is 9 and the number of users in the "basketball group" is greater than 9, information of all users in the "basketball group" may be obtained in the database of the server 100 to form a group member information set, and information of each user in the group member information set may include information of user group entering time, user avatar size, user group liveness, and the like. If the server 100 selects the user avatars for synthesizing the group avatars based on the user affiliation time, the server 100 may sort the user affiliation time of each user in the group member information set in order from morning to evening, and select the first 9 users from the user affiliation time, the server 100 further obtains the user avatars corresponding to the selected 9 users in the avatar database, which are avatar 1, avatar 2, … …, avatar 8, and avatar 9, respectively, and the server 100 may perform asynchronous transmission on the 9 avatars. As shown in fig. 2, the terminal device 200a may asynchronously load the 9 avatars, and before asynchronously loading the 9 avatars, the terminal device 200a may create 9 independent unit display windows in the group avatar display area 300 of the "basketball group", where the independent unit display windows may be views (views) as shown in fig. 2, and the views may be visual representations of application program interfaces, so that after a single user avatar is added to one independent unit display window, the single user avatar may be directly displayed on the terminal display interface. The view can be obtained by packaging based on an open source component Fresco (which is an open source frame and is also an android picture loading library), and asynchronous loading and displaying of the user avatar can be realized through the Fresco. As shown in fig. 2, the terminal device 200a will first load the avatar 1, avatar 2, avatar 4 and avatar 7 through asynchronous loading, and adds the avatar 1, avatar 2, avatar 4 and avatar 7 to the corresponding views respectively, furthermore, the avatar 1, the avatar 2, the avatar 4 and the avatar 7 can be preferentially displayed in the group avatar display area 300, and the group avatar corresponding to the displayed "basketball group" is an incomplete group avatar, and thereafter, the terminal device 200a further loads the remaining avatars, and the remaining avatars are respectively added into the corresponding views, so that the displayed incomplete group avatars (namely the group avatars only comprising the avatar 1, the avatar 2, the avatar 4 and the avatar 7) gradually change into complete group avatars, the complete group avatar includes avatar 1, avatar 2, avatar 3, … …, avatar 8, and avatar 9. Therefore, the terminal device 200a only needs to load the user avatars needed to synthesize the group avatar, that is, the terminal device does not need to load the avatars of all users in the "basketball group", so that not only is traffic saved, but also only 9 user avatars used to synthesize the group avatar are loaded, thereby reducing avatar loading time and further improving the display speed of the group avatar. And the terminal device 200a can asynchronously load and display the user avatars by creating the independent unit display window, so that the situation that the group avatar display area 300 is in blank display for a long time due to the fact that the time for loading all the user avatars for synthesizing the group avatar is too long can be avoided, and the terminal device 200a can also display part of the user avatars in the group avatar display area 300 first (for example, the avatar 1, the avatar 2, the avatar 4 and the avatar 7 are preferentially displayed in fig. 2) under the condition that the network signal is poor, so that the avatar display effect is increased, and the user stickiness is increased.

Referring to fig. 3, a timing diagram of an image data processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, where the method includes:

s301, the terminal equipment sends a group head portrait acquisition request to a server;

specifically, when the terminal device opens an instant messaging application (e.g., a WeChat), the terminal display interface displays a target group in the instant messaging application (a group in which a group avatar is to be generated is referred to as a target group), and at this time, the terminal device may send a group avatar acquisition request to the server, where the group avatar acquisition request may include target group information (e.g., a group name).

S302, the server determines a target group requested by the group head portrait acquisition request and acquires the total number of users in the target group;

specifically, after receiving the group avatar acquisition request, the server may extract the target group information in the group avatar acquisition request, and may further acquire the total number of users in the target group indicated by the target group information. Where a group can be understood as a platform that brings together people with the same hobbies or characteristics to chat and communicate. Taking WeChat as an example, a user can pull a plurality of friends to the same WeChat group (i.e., a group), and when the user sends a message in the WeChat group, all other users in the WeChat group can receive the message, so as to realize multi-user common chat.

S303, if the total number of the users is greater than a target number threshold, the server selects a target user in the target group according to an avatar selection rule, and acquires a target user avatar corresponding to the target user; the number of target users is equal to the target number threshold;

specifically, if the total number of users is greater than the target number threshold, the server may select a plurality of target users in the target group according to the avatar selection rule, where the number of target users is equal to the target number threshold. For example, if the target number threshold is 9 and the number of users in the target group is 20, the server will select 9 users in the target group as the target users. After the target user is selected, a user head portrait corresponding to the target user can be further acquired in a head database in the server side, and the user head portrait corresponding to the target user is called a target user head portrait. The avatar selection rules may include a rule for selecting based on the time of the user entering the group, a rule for selecting based on the avatar size of the user, a rule for selecting based on the group activity of the user in the group, and so on. The avatar selection rules may also include rules for selecting based on other user parameters (such as age, geographical location, user permission level, etc. of the users in the group), and the user parameters are not limited herein.

If the avatar selection rule is a rule for selecting based on the user group entering time, the specific process of selecting the target user in the target group according to the avatar selection rule may be: and acquiring the group entering time corresponding to each user in the target group according to the avatar selection rule, sequencing all users in the target group according to the sequence of the group entering time, and selecting the target users in the sequenced all users in sequence. For example, there are 20 users in the target group, which are user 1, user 2, … …, and user 20, respectively, the group entry time of the 20 users is obtained, and the 20 users are sorted according to the order of the group entry time from morning to evening, where the 9 users from user 1 to user 9 are arranged in the first 9 digits, and then the 9 users from user 1 to user 9 can be used as target users (assuming that the target number threshold is 9).

If the avatar selection rule is a rule for selecting based on the avatar size of the user, the specific process of selecting the target user in the target group according to the avatar selection rule may be: according to the avatar selection rule, acquiring the user avatar size corresponding to each user in the target group, sorting all users in the target group according to the sequence of the user avatar sizes, and selecting the target user in the sorted all users in sequence. For example, there are 15 users in the target group, which are user 1, user 2, … …, and user 15, respectively, the user avatar sizes of the 15 users are obtained, and the 15 users are sorted according to the order of the user avatar sizes from small to large, where the 9 users from user 3 to user 11 are arranged in the top 9, and the 9 users from user 3 to user 11 can be regarded as target users (assuming that the target number threshold is 9).

If the avatar selection rule is a rule for selecting based on the group liveness of the user in the group, the specific process of selecting the target user in the target group according to the avatar selection rule may be: and according to the avatar selection rule, acquiring the group activity corresponding to each user in the target group, sequencing all users in the target group according to the sequence of the group activity, and selecting the target users in all the sequenced users in sequence. The group activity of a user may be determined by the number of times the user speaks in the target group and the speaking frequency, that is, the more actively the user speaks in the target group, the higher the corresponding group activity. For example, there are 30 users in the target group, which are user 1, user 2, … …, and user 30, respectively, the group activity degrees of the 30 users are obtained, and the 30 users are sorted in the order of the group activity degrees from high to low, where, users 11 to 19 are arranged in the top 9, and then the 9 users, that is, users 11 to 19, can be regarded as target users (assuming that the target number threshold is 9).

S304, the server sends the head portrait of the target user to the terminal equipment;

specifically, the server may send the acquired target user avatar to the terminal device, and may send each target user avatar to the terminal device in an asynchronous transmission manner.

S305, the terminal equipment synthesizes the head portrait of the target user into a group head portrait corresponding to the target group;

specifically, the terminal device may synthesize all the head portraits of the target users into a group head portrait corresponding to the target group after all the head portraits of the target users are loaded, and display the group head portrait.

Referring to fig. 4, a timing diagram of another image data processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, where the method includes:

s401, the terminal equipment sends a group head portrait acquisition request to a server;

s402, the server determines a target group requested by the group head portrait acquisition request and acquires the total number of users in the target group;

s403, if the total number of the users is greater than a target number threshold, the server selects a target user in the target group according to an avatar selection rule, and acquires a target user avatar corresponding to the target user; the number of target users is equal to the target number threshold;

the specific implementation manner of steps S401 to S403 may refer to steps S301 to S303 in the embodiment corresponding to fig. 3, which is not described herein again.

S404, the server sends the head portrait of the target user to the terminal equipment based on an asynchronous transmission mode;

specifically, the server does not need to issue all the target user avatars to the terminal device at the same time, for example, the server may sequentially send the target user avatars to the terminal device according to the sequence.

S405, the terminal equipment asynchronously loads the head portrait of the target user and creates a plurality of independent unit display windows in a group head portrait display area; the number of independent unit display windows is equal to the target number threshold;

specifically, the terminal device may asynchronously load each target user avatar (i.e., it is not necessary to load all target user avatars at the same time, for example, a part of the target user avatars may be loaded first, and then the rest of the target user avatars may be loaded), that is, the server and the terminal device may implement asynchronous transmission of the target user avatars. When the terminal device starts to load the target user avatar, the terminal device may create a plurality of independent unit display windows in the group avatar display area, where the number of the independent unit display windows is equal to the target number threshold. The independent unit display window can be a view (view), and the view can be a visual embodiment of an application program interface, so that after the image content is added to the independent unit display window, the added image can be directly displayed on the terminal display interface. The independent unit display window is specifically used for displaying a target user avatar, and one independent unit display window displays one target user avatar. The view can be obtained by packaging based on an open source component Fresco (which is an open source frame and is also an android picture loading library), and asynchronous loading and displaying of the head portrait of the target user can be realized through the Fresco.

S406, the terminal equipment adds the head portrait of the target user which is loaded first to the corresponding independent unit display window for preferential display, and performs blank display on the independent unit display window corresponding to the unloaded head portrait of the target user;

specifically, the terminal device may add the target user avatar that is loaded first to the corresponding independent unit display window for priority display, and perform blank display on the independent unit display window corresponding to the target user avatar that is not loaded, that is, the terminal device does not need to wait until all the target user avatars are combined into the group avatar to display the group avatar, for example, if there are 9 target user avatars and 3 target user avatars are loaded first, the 3 loaded target user avatars may be added to the corresponding independent unit display windows, at this time, the terminal device may display the incomplete group avatar first, the incomplete group avatar includes the 3 loaded target user avatars, and the incomplete group avatar further includes the remaining 6 independent unit display windows to which the target user avatars are not added, and the 6 independent unit display windows may be displayed in a blank form in the incomplete group avatar), after that, each target user avatar is loaded, the target user avatar is added to the corresponding independent unit display window, so that each target user avatar can be gradually displayed in the group avatar display area in the terminal equipment. Therefore, the terminal device can avoid that the group head portrait display area is in blank display for a long time due to the fact that the time for loading all the target user head portraits is too long by displaying the incomplete group head portraits including the content (namely, part of the target user head portraits) first, so that the terminal device can display part of the target user head portraits in the group head portrait display area first under the condition that the network signal is poor, the head portrait display effect is improved, and the user viscosity is increased.

The specific process of creating a plurality of independent unit display windows in the group avatar display area may be: creating a plurality of independent unit display windows, determining the placing position of each independent unit display window in the group head portrait display area according to head portrait placing rules, and respectively adding each independent unit display window to the corresponding placing position in the group head portrait display area. For example, if the number of the head portraits of the target user is 9, 9 independent unit display windows may be created, the group head portraits display area is divided into 9 areas according to the shape of the nine-square grid, and one independent unit display window is placed in each area, that is, the head portraits placement rule may be a rule of placing the head portraits according to the nine-square grid.

S407, when all the head portraits of the target users are added to the corresponding independent unit display windows, the terminal equipment determines a group head portraits display area containing all the head portraits of the target users as the group head portraits corresponding to the target groups;

specifically, when all the target user avatars are added to the corresponding independent unit display windows, the group avatar display area containing all the target user avatars is determined as the group avatar corresponding to the target group, and at this time, the terminal device can display the complete group avatar.

Further, please refer to fig. 4a to fig. 4c, which are schematic diagrams of a group head image display interface according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 4a, after the user opens the wechat in the terminal device, the message fields corresponding to the "parent group" and the "subscription number" are displayed on the wechat homepage, and the group avatar display area 400 of the "parent group" temporarily does not display an avatar yet, so the terminal device may request the server for a target user avatar for synthesizing the group avatar of the "parent group", and if 9 target user avatars selected by the server are present, the terminal device also creates 9 views (i.e., independent unit display windows) in the group avatar display area 400, where the 9 target user avatars are respectively avatar "1", avatar "2", avatar "3", avatar "4", avatar "5", avatar "6", avatar "7", avatar "8", and avatar "9". The terminal device may asynchronously load the 9 target user avatars, as shown in fig. 4b, the terminal device may load the avatar "1", the avatar "2", the avatar "3", and the avatar "4" first, and then the terminal device may preferentially add the avatar "1", the avatar "2", the avatar "3", and the avatar "4" to the corresponding views, respectively, at this time, the avatar "1", the avatar "2", the avatar "3", and the avatar "4" are displayed in the group avatar display area 400 in the application interface of the WeChat, and views to which the target user avatar is not added are displayed in a blank space. As shown in fig. 4c, the terminal device continues to load the remaining target user avatars, and adds the remaining avatars "5", "6", "7", "8", and "9" to the views that have not been used, at this time, avatars "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", and "9" are displayed in the group avatar display area 400 in the application interface of the WeChat, that is, the group avatar displayed in the group avatar display area 400 in fig. 4c is a complete group avatar. For the user, the user first sees the group avatar of the blank "parent group", then the user sees the group avatar of the "parent group" gradually changing to the incomplete group avatar shown in fig. 4b (i.e. the group avatar containing avatar "1", avatar "2", avatar "3", avatar "4"), and finally sees the group avatar of the "parent group" gradually changing to the complete group avatar shown in fig. 4c (i.e. the group avatar containing 9 target user avatars).

Optionally, if the total number of the users in the target group is less than or equal to the target number threshold, the server may obtain the head portraits of all the users in the target group as the head portraits of the target users, transmit the head portraits of all the target users to the terminal device, and the terminal device synthesizes the head portraits of all the target users into the group head portraits of the target group.

Optionally, for different numbers of target user avatars, corresponding placing modes are also different, so that the placing positions of the target user avatars of various numbers can be determined through the placing rules. Please refer to fig. 4d together, which is a schematic diagram of another group avatar display interface according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4d, the threshold of the target number is 9, and if the number of group members (i.e., the total number of users in the target group) is 1, 1 target user avatar (i.e., avatar "1") can be displayed in the middle of the group avatar display area (which may be a square); if the number of group members is 2, a row of 2 head portraits of the target users (namely head portraits "1" and head portraits "2") can be displayed in the middle of the display area of the head portraits of the group; if the number of the group members is 3, two rows of the head portraits of the target users can be displayed in the middle of the display area of the head portraits of the group, from top to bottom, the head portraits of the 1 target users are displayed in the first row, and the head portraits of the 2 target users are displayed in the second row (namely the head portraits '1', the head portraits '2' and the head portraits '3'); if the number of the group members is 4, two rows of the head portraits of the target users can be displayed in the middle of the display area of the head portraits of the group, and each row displays 2 head portraits of the target users (namely head portraits "1", head portraits "2", head portraits "3", and head portraits "4"); if the number of the group members is 5, displaying two rows of head portraits of the target users in the middle of the display area of the head portraits of the group, wherein the head portraits of the target users are displayed in the first row from top to bottom, and the head portraits of the target users are displayed in the second row (namely head portraits '1', head portraits '2', head portraits '3', head portraits '4' and head portraits '5'); if the number of the group members is 6, displaying two rows of head portraits of the target users in the middle of the display area of the head portraits of the group, and displaying 3 head portraits of the target users in each row (namely head portraits ' 1 ', 2 ', 3 ', 4 ', 5 ' and 6 '); if the number of the group members is 7, displaying three rows of the head portraits of the target users in the middle of the display area of the head portraits of the group, wherein from top to bottom, the first row displays 1 head portraits of the target users, the second row displays 3 head portraits of the target users, and the third row displays 3 head portraits of the target users (namely head portraits "1", head portraits "2", head portraits "3", head portraits "4", head portraits "5", head portraits "6", and head portraits "7"); if the number of the group members is 8, displaying three rows of the head portraits of the target users in the middle of the display area of the head portraits of the group, wherein from top to bottom, the first row displays 2 head portraits of the target users, the second row displays 3 head portraits of the target users, and the third row displays 3 head portraits of the target users (namely head portraits ' 1 ', 2 ', 3 ', 4 ', 5 ', 6 ', 7 ' and 8 '); if the number of group members is greater than or equal to 9, three rows of target user avatars are displayed in the middle of the group avatar display area, and 3 target user avatars are displayed in each row (i.e., avatar "1", avatar "2", avatar "3", avatar "4", avatar "5", avatar "6", avatar "7", avatar "8", avatar "9").

The embodiment of the invention obtains a group head portrait obtaining request sent by terminal equipment through a server, determines a target group requested by the group head portrait obtaining request, and obtains the total number of users in the target group; if the total number of the users is larger than the target number threshold, selecting a target user in the target group according to the avatar selection rule, and acquiring an avatar of the target user corresponding to the target user; the number of target users is equal to a target number threshold; and then sending the head portrait of the target user to the terminal equipment so that the terminal equipment synthesizes the head portrait of the target user into a group head portrait corresponding to the target group. Therefore, the terminal equipment only needs to load the head portraits of the target users needed to synthesize the group head portraits, namely the terminal equipment does not need to load the head portraits of all the users in the target group, so that the flow is saved, only the head portraits of the target users are loaded, the head portraits loading time is shortened, and the display speed of the group head portraits is further improved. And the terminal equipment can asynchronously load and display the head portraits of the target users by creating the display windows of the independent units, so that the situation that the display area of the group head portraits is in blank display for a long time due to the fact that all the head portraits of the target users are loaded for too long time can be avoided, and the terminal equipment can also display part of the head portraits of the target users in the display area of the group head portraits firstly under the condition that network signals are poor, so that the head portrayal display effect is improved, and the user viscosity is increased.

Referring to fig. 5, a flowchart of an image data processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, where the method includes:

s501, a server acquires a group head portrait acquisition request sent by terminal equipment, determines a target group requested by the group head portrait acquisition request, and acquires the total number of users in the target group;

s502, if the total number of the users is larger than a target number threshold, selecting a target user in the target group according to an avatar selection rule, and acquiring an avatar of the target user corresponding to the target user; the number of target users is equal to the target number threshold;

the specific implementation manner of steps S501 to S502 may refer to steps S301 to S303 in the embodiment corresponding to fig. 3, which is not described herein again.

S503, adjusting the size of the head portrait of the target user to a target size to obtain an adjusted head portrait of the target user;

specifically, after the server selects the target user avatar in the target group, the size of each target user avatar may be further adjusted to a target size, which is usually smaller than the size of the target user avatar, so that the data size of the adjusted target user avatar obtained after the target size is adjusted is smaller than the data size of the target user avatar, and thus the network traffic consumed for transmitting the adjusted target user avatar is smaller than the network traffic consumed for transmitting the target user avatar. Therefore, if the adjusted head portrait of the target user is transmitted to the terminal device, the consumption of network flow can be further reduced, the head portrait transmission time is also shortened, and the display efficiency of the head portrait of the group corresponding to the target group is further improved.

S504, converting the format of the adjusted target user head portrait into a progressive picture format, and sending the adjusted target user head portrait in the progressive picture format to the terminal equipment in a layered manner, so that the terminal equipment loads the adjusted target user head portrait in the progressive picture format layer by layer, and synthesizes the loaded adjusted target user head portrait into a group head portrait corresponding to the target group;

specifically, after the adjusted target user avatar is generated, the format of the adjusted target user avatar may be further converted into a progressive picture format, and the adjusted target user avatar in the progressive picture format is referred to as a target layered picture. The target layered picture may include base layer picture data and at least one enhancement layer picture data, the base layer picture data may refer to low quality picture data that may approximately display picture content, that is, the data amount of the base layer picture data is small so that the base layer picture data may be transmitted to the terminal device relatively quickly, and the enhancement layer picture data may refer to a difference amount between the high quality picture data and the base layer picture data, and thus, higher quality picture data may be obtained by overlapping the enhancement layer picture data and the base layer picture data. When a plurality of enhancement layer picture data exist, the quality of the picture can be improved by one level when one enhancement layer picture data is superposed, namely the picture is displayed in a gradual change process from fuzzy to clear. Therefore, the server can first send the base layer picture data in the target layered picture to the terminal device, wherein the time length for transmitting the base layer picture data is shorter because the data size of the base layer picture data is smaller (i.e. the jaggies of the picture content are more obvious). Moreover, the terminal device may further asynchronously load each target layered picture, so that a part of the target layered pictures may be displayed first, and then another part of the target layered pictures may be displayed, so as to further improve the avatar display speed (for a specific process of the asynchronous loading and displaying, see S405-S407 in the embodiment corresponding to fig. 4, which is not described herein again). Because the target layered pictures can be asynchronously loaded and displayed, the terminal device can quickly and preferentially display the loaded basic layer picture data on the group head portrait display area (namely, the fuzzy target user head portrait can be quickly displayed), and the group head portrait display area is prevented from being in a blank state for a long time. After the terminal equipment loads the base layer picture data, the base layer picture data can be displayed immediately, the terminal equipment can continue to load the enhancement layer picture data sent by the server, and the enhancement layer picture data and the base layer picture data are combined to obtain a clearer head portrait of the target user. Therefore, the head portraits of each target user in the group head portraits display area in the terminal equipment can be displayed in a progressive mode, and the head portraits display speed is improved. When all the target layered pictures are loaded, all the target layered pictures (namely all the target user avatars) are also displayed in the group avatar display area in the terminal equipment, the group avatar display area containing all the target user avatars is determined as the group avatar corresponding to the target group, and at the moment, the terminal equipment can display the complete group avatar.

The embodiment of the invention obtains a group head portrait obtaining request sent by terminal equipment through a server, determines a target group requested by the group head portrait obtaining request, and obtains the total number of users in the target group; if the total number of the users is larger than the target number threshold, selecting a target user in the target group according to the avatar selection rule, and acquiring an avatar of the target user corresponding to the target user; the number of target users is equal to a target number threshold; and then adjusting the size of the head portrait of the target user to a target size to obtain an adjusted head portrait of the target user, converting the format of the adjusted head portrait of the target user into a progressive picture format, sending the adjusted head portrait of the target user in the progressive picture format to the terminal equipment in a layered manner, so that the terminal equipment loads the adjusted head portrait of the target user in the progressive picture format layer by layer, and synthesizing the loaded adjusted head portrait of the target user into a group head portrait corresponding to the target group. Therefore, the terminal equipment only needs to load the head portraits of the target users needed to synthesize the group head portraits, namely the terminal equipment does not need to load the head portraits of all the users in the target group, so that the flow is saved, only the head portraits of the target users are loaded, the head portraits loading time is shortened, and the display speed of the group head portraits is further improved. The terminal equipment can also asynchronously load and display the head portraits of the adjusted target users, so that the phenomenon that the display area of the group head portraits is in blank display for a long time due to the fact that the head portraits of all the adjusted target users are loaded for too long time can be avoided, and the terminal equipment can also display part of the head portraits of the adjusted target users in the display area of the group head portraits firstly under the condition that network signals are poor, so that the head portrayal display effect is improved, and the user viscosity is increased; and the adjusted target user head portrait is set to be in a progressive picture format, so that the head portrait display speed can be further improved in the asynchronous loading and displaying process.

Referring to fig. 6, a schematic flow chart of another image data processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown, where the method includes:

s601, the terminal equipment sends a group head portrait acquisition request to a server so that the server determines a target group requested by the group head portrait acquisition request and acquires the total number of users in the target group, and if the total number of users is greater than a target number threshold, a target user is selected in the target group according to a head portrait selection rule and a target user head portrait corresponding to the target user is acquired; the number of target users is equal to the target number threshold;

s602, the terminal equipment asynchronously loads the head portrait of the target user and creates a plurality of independent unit display windows in a group head portrait display area; the number of independent unit display windows is equal to the target number threshold;

s603, adding the head portrait of the target user which is loaded first to the corresponding independent unit display window for preferential display, and performing blank display on the independent unit display window corresponding to the head portrait of the target user which is not loaded;

Optionally, the server may further process the target user avatar into the target layered picture in the embodiment corresponding to fig. 5 as described above, and then the terminal device may perform asynchronous loading and displaying on the target layered picture (for a specific implementation manner of this process, see S504 in the embodiment corresponding to fig. 5, which is not described here again).

S605, if the terminal display interface does not contain the group head portrait corresponding to the target group, deleting the head portrait of the target user in the memory;

specifically, after the terminal device displays the group icon corresponding to the target group, the user further operates the terminal device and slides the terminal display interface of the terminal device, for example, slides down to view the back content in the instant messaging application. The terminal display interface after sliding no longer displays the group avatar corresponding to the target group, and the terminal device may further delete all the target user avatars in the Memory, and specifically delete the target user avatars corresponding to the group avatars that are not currently required to be displayed in the Memory through Fresco, so as to prevent Out of Memory (OOM) from occurring and improve the performance of the terminal system.

specifically, after deleting the head portraits of the target users in the memory, if the user slides the terminal display interface again, so that the target group appears in the terminal display interface again, at this time, the terminal device may detect a group head portraits display request corresponding to the target group on the terminal display interface, obtain the head portraits of the target users in the cache according to the group head portraits display request, and re-synthesize the head portraits of the target users into the group head portraits corresponding to the target group. When deleting the target user avatar in the content, the terminal device does not delete the target user avatar in the cache, so that the target user avatar sent by the server can be prevented from being reloaded, the picture display speed is increased, and the waste of network traffic is reduced.

The embodiment of the invention obtains a group head portrait obtaining request sent by terminal equipment through a server, determines a target group requested by the group head portrait obtaining request, and obtains the total number of users in the target group; if the total number of the users is larger than the target number threshold, selecting a target user in the target group according to the avatar selection rule, and acquiring an avatar of the target user corresponding to the target user; the number of target users is equal to a target number threshold; and then adjusting the size of the head portrait of the target user to a target size to obtain an adjusted head portrait of the target user, converting the format of the adjusted head portrait of the target user into a progressive picture format, sending the adjusted head portrait of the target user in the progressive picture format to the terminal equipment in a layered manner, so that the terminal equipment loads the adjusted head portrait of the target user in the progressive picture format layer by layer, and synthesizing the loaded adjusted head portrait of the target user into a group head portrait corresponding to the target group. Therefore, the terminal equipment only needs to load the head portraits of the target users needed to synthesize the group head portraits, namely the terminal equipment does not need to load the head portraits of all the users in the target group, so that the flow is saved, only the head portraits of the target users are loaded, the head portraits loading time is shortened, and the display speed of the group head portraits is further improved. The terminal equipment can also asynchronously load and display the head portraits of the adjusted target users, so that the phenomenon that the display area of the group head portraits is in blank display for a long time due to the fact that the head portraits of all the adjusted target users are loaded for too long time can be avoided, and the terminal equipment can also display part of the head portraits of the adjusted target users in the display area of the group head portraits firstly under the condition that network signals are poor, so that the head portrayal display effect is improved, and the user viscosity is increased; and the adjusted target user head portrait is set to be in a progressive picture format, so that the head portrait display speed can be further improved in the asynchronous loading and displaying process. The terminal equipment can delete the head portraits of the target users corresponding to the head portraits of the group which do not need to be displayed currently in the memory through the Freeco so as to prevent OOM and improve the performance of a terminal system; meanwhile, when the terminal device deletes the target user avatar in the content, the target user avatar in the cache is not deleted, so that the target user avatar sent by the server can be prevented from being reloaded when the group avatar needs to be displayed next time, the image display speed is increased, and the waste of network flow is reduced.

The image data processing apparatus 1000 may include: the processor 1001, the network interface 1004, and the memory 1005, and the image data processing apparatus 1000 may further include: a user interface 1003, and at least one communication bus 1002. Wherein a communication bus 1002 is used to enable connective communication between these components. The user interface 1003 may include a Display screen (Display) and a Keyboard (Keyboard), and the optional user interface 1003 may also include a standard wired interface and a standard wireless interface. The network interface 1004 may optionally include a standard wired interface, a wireless interface (e.g., WI-FI interface). The memory 1004 may be a high-speed RAM memory or a non-volatile memory (e.g., at least one disk memory).

acquiring a group head portrait acquisition request sent by terminal equipment, determining a target group requested by the group head portrait acquisition request, and acquiring the total number of users in the target group;

Where a group can be understood as a platform that brings together people with the same hobbies or characteristics to chat and communicate. Taking WeChat as an example, a user can pull a plurality of friends to the same WeChat group (i.e., a group), and when the user sends a message in the WeChat group, all other users in the WeChat group can receive the message, so as to realize multi-user common chat.

In one embodiment, when the processor 1001 selects a target user in the target group according to an avatar selection rule and obtains a target user avatar corresponding to the target user, the following steps are specifically performed:

For example, there are 20 users in the target group, which are user 1, user 2, … …, and user 20, respectively, the group entry time of the 20 users is obtained, and the 20 users are sorted according to the order of the group entry time from morning to evening, where the 9 users from user 1 to user 9 are arranged in the first 9 digits, and then the 9 users from user 1 to user 9 can be used as target users (assuming that the target number threshold is 9).
