Detailed Description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.

The technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a terminal, which may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a desktop computer, and the like, and this embodiment is not particularly limited thereto. In the related art, an interactive live broadcast answering game based on instant messaging is popular with many users, the live broadcast interactive answering game is divided into a plurality of fields, and users can answer within the answering time set by the game, such as within 10 seconds, to answer correct questions. At present, the main mode that a user answers a live interactive answer game is to participate in answer answering through personal knowledge storage, or network search answers, or a multi-person cooperation mode, but because the field of question coverage is wide and the answer time is relatively short, the accuracy of answer cannot be guaranteed in the former two modes, the live interactive answer game is carried out in different places at a specific time and is influenced variably by the time of personnel, members of an answer team may not be on line at the same time, and therefore, the last mode also has unstable factors. Based on this, according to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the target question and the candidate answer are sent to the server, so that the server obtains the submitted reference answer according to the target question and the candidate answer, analyzes the distribution probability of each candidate answer being selected according to the plurality of reference answers, and finally displays the distribution probability to the user as a reference, thereby assisting the user in answering the question quickly and accurately.

In the answer prompting method provided by the technical scheme of the disclosure, an execution main body for implementing the method at least comprises a first terminal and a server. The embodiment of the present disclosure arranges two sets of embodiments according to different implementation main bodies, as follows:

first terminal side

Fig. 1 illustrates a flowchart of an answer prompting method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. As can be seen from fig. 1, the method is applicable to a first terminal, and includes the following steps S101 to S104:

in step S101, the target topic and the candidate answer are displayed.

In an example, a target application of an interactive live question answering game is installed on a first terminal, and the target application can run in system environments such as Android, iOS or windows. When the intelligent answer function of the target application needs to be adopted, the user may download the answer assistant of the target application, and preset corresponding functions, for example, select the required functions such as intelligent answer and automatic answer in the setting interface of the answer assistant shown in fig. 2. It should be noted that: the answering assistant is a functional plug-in developed based on the target application, an SDK (Software Development Kit) in an Android Development environment is required in the Development process, the functional plug-in and the target application are independently installed, and when the functional plug-in and the target application are simultaneously opened, the related intelligent answering function of the functional plug-in can be embodied on the interface of the target application, so that the function of assisting a user in answering is realized. Based on this, when the user uses the target application to answer, the user can start the answer assistant at the application interface of the first terminal first, and then start the target application, when the game to be answered starts, the target application can pop up the target question and the candidate answer, so that the user can select and answer from the candidate answers according to the target question. The target topic and the candidate answer may pop up sequentially or simultaneously, and the target topic and the candidate answer may be displayed on the same page or different pages, which is not limited in this embodiment.

In step S102, the target question and the candidate answer are uploaded to the server, so that the server obtains a plurality of reference answers submitted by the second terminal according to the target question and the candidate answer.

For example, after the first terminal pops up the target topic and the candidate answer, the user can answer the question. At this time, the first terminal may upload the target topic and the candidate answer to the server, so that the server knows the currently ongoing topic and obtains the answer submitted by the user who has answered according to the target topic and the candidate answer. Therefore, if the user can not determine the answer of the current question, the answer sent to the answer assistant by the server can be referred to for answering. Specifically, assuming that the user using the second terminal to participate in the interactive live question answering game has finished answering, the question answering assistant installed in the second terminal may upload the target question and the selected candidate answer to the server, which may obtain an ID (Identification) and an answer text content selected by the current answer TextView by a getEnabled () method and upload the ID and the answer text content to the server, so that the server performs statistical analysis according to answers submitted by a plurality of second terminals. It should be noted that: the second terminal is a terminal other than the first terminal, and certainly, the target application is also installed in the second terminal, so that other users participating in the interactive live question answering game can answer questions by adopting the second terminal.

In step S103, the distribution probability of each candidate answer selected by the server according to the analysis of the multiple reference answers is received.

For example, after receiving the answer submitted by the second terminal, the server may employ a built-in algorithm operation to perform analysis statistics on the condition that each candidate answer is selected, so as to obtain a distribution probability of each candidate answer being selected, where the presentation form of the distribution probability may include a percentage of each candidate answer being selected or an actual number of each candidate answer being selected. In consideration of the answer accuracy and the question that the answer time needs to be reserved for the unanswered user, the embodiment may set the first preset time to demarcate the submitted answers, that is, neglect the answers submitted after exceeding the first preset time, and perform the analysis statistics only according to the reference answers submitted within the first preset time, where the first preset time may be set between one third and two thirds of the answer setting time, for example, set to one half of the answer setting time, so that the accuracy of the answers may be further ensured on the basis of obtaining a sufficient number of answers. Since the user participating in the interactive live-broadcast answer game can certainly make a quick selection if knowing the answer, the answer submitted in a short time has high reliability, and the embodiment enables the server to perform statistical analysis only according to the reference answer acquired within the first preset time by setting the first preset time, so that the accuracy of the reference answer can be improved, and meanwhile, enough time can be reserved for the user who does not answer. It should be noted that: although the embodiment is set to perform statistics based on the reference answers submitted within the first preset time, it should be clear that, since the candidate answers pop up, the server performs analysis statistics in real time according to the submitted reference answers and feeds back the reference answers to the terminal that has not answered in real time, and only as the answering time is prolonged, more and more reference answers are submitted, which is beneficial to determining the accuracy of each answer. Based on this, the server may issue the distribution probability of each candidate answer selected according to the analysis of the plurality of reference answers to a terminal that has not submitted an answer, such as the first terminal, which may specifically issue to the answer assistant of the first terminal, and the first terminal may be presented to the user through the answer assistant when receiving the specific data of the distribution probability, so that the user may make a reference selection.

In step S104, each candidate answer is calibrated based on the distribution probability of each candidate answer being selected, so as to show the reference probability of each candidate answer being selected.

For example, when the first terminal receives the distribution probability that each candidate answer is selected, the coverage rate of each candidate answer analyzed by the server can be presented to the user through the answering assistant. Specifically, referring to fig. 3, the first terminal may display the percentage or the actual number of the selected candidate answers on an assistant tool interface of the answer assistant to calibrate the candidate answers, so that the user can see the selections made by other users who participate in the interactive live answer game at the same time, know the reference probability of the selected candidate answers, and then answer according to the probability of the selected candidate answers.

Therefore, according to the answer prompting method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure, the target question and the candidate answers are sent to the server, so that the server obtains the submitted reference answers according to the target question and the candidate answers, analyzes the distribution probability of each candidate answer being selected according to the plurality of reference answers, and finally displays the distribution probability to the user as a reference, thereby assisting the user in answering the questions quickly and accurately.

Based on the above method, referring to fig. 4, the embodiment of the present disclosure may further include the following steps S105 to S106:

in step S105, the preset automatic question answering time and the already-answered question time are detected.

For example, when a user participates in an interactive live question answering game, in order to avoid missing the answer setting time due to an unexpected situation, an automatic question answering function may be selected in advance in the setting interface of the answer assistant shown in fig. 2, and the automatic question answering time may be manually set. The automatic answering time is set within the range of 0-9999 in milliseconds, for example, 1000 represents that the answer is automatically answered after 1 second. The example set to 8000 shows that the answer is automatically answered after 8 seconds. Based on the method, the first terminal can obtain the preset automatic answer time and start timing when the candidate answer is popped up so as to obtain the answer time in real time, thereby realizing the monitoring of the answer time and avoiding the user from missing the answer setting time.

In step S106, when the answer time is equal to the automatic answer time, the candidate answer with the highest reference probability in the distribution probabilities is submitted as the answer of the first terminal.

For example, when detecting that the time for answering the question is equal to the preset automatic answering time, the first terminal may automatically answer the question based on the calibrated distribution probability that each candidate answer is selected, for example, the candidate answer with the highest reference probability in the distribution probabilities may be submitted as the answer of the first terminal. Specifically, the answer assistant installed in the first terminal may obtain the candidate answer with the largest reference probability issued by the server by using a setEnabled () method, so as to assist the user to automatically answer before the answer setting time is reached, thereby avoiding missing the answer setting time due to an excessively long thinking time or other sudden situations of the user.

Therefore, the answer prompting method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can also set the automatic answer time, and automatically answer based on the candidate answer with the maximum reference probability issued by the server, so that the user is prevented from missing the answer setting time, and the on-hook mode can be realized.

Furthermore, in order to avoid the user missing the optimal answering opportunity, the embodiment may also prompt the user to start answering. Based on this, referring to fig. 5, an embodiment of the present disclosure may include the following step S107:

in step S107, when the candidate answer pop-up is detected, prompt information is generated, the prompt information including a sound prompt and/or a vibration prompt.

For example, when detecting that the candidate answer for the target subject pops up, the first terminal may automatically generate a prompt message, where the prompt message may be a voice prompt, a vibration prompt, or a combination of voice and vibration prompt. The target question and the candidate answer can be popped up sequentially or simultaneously, but the generation time of the prompt message needs to be based on the popping time of the candidate answer. Once the candidate answer is detected to pop up, the answer assistant calls a vibration function or a ring function of the first terminal so as to remind the user to start answering. It should be noted that: the answer prompting function also needs to be set in advance in the setting interface of the answer assistant shown in fig. 2, that is, the function of answering prompts is selected.

Therefore, the answer prompting method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can also set an answer prompting function to remind the user to start answering, so as to avoid missing the optimal answer opportunity.

In this example embodiment, referring to fig. 6, the answer prompting method may further include the following steps S108 to S111:

in step S108, when the target title is detected to pop up, a display request is sent to the server, where the display request is used to request to associate a preset browser and display a search interface.

For example, when detecting that a target title pops up, the first terminal may send a display request requesting to associate a preset browser and display a search interface to the server. The preset browser is a predefined browser, namely a custom WebKtext search browser, and can be a Baidu browser or a Google browser, for example, and the search interface is a search interface of the preset browser, and can be a Baidu search interface or a Google search interface, for example. Based on this, the first terminal may send a display request to the server when detecting that the target title pops up, for example, request to associate the hundred-degree browser and display the hundred-degree search interface, at this time, the server may perform an association operation with the hundred-degree browser based on the display request, and feed back a display instruction including an association result to the first terminal.

In step S109, a display instruction returned by the server in response to the display request is received, and the preset browser is associated with the display instruction and a search interface is displayed on the same page of the candidate answer.

For example, when receiving a display instruction returned by the server in response to the display request, the first terminal may automatically associate the preset browser according to the display instruction, and display a search interface shown in fig. 7 below the title box, where the search interface may be a search interface such as a hundredth search or google search, and is related to the associated preset browser type. The size of the search interface may be adjusted in the setting interface of the answer assistant shown in fig. 2 according to the needs of the user, and the specific adjustment method is as follows: the method comprises the steps that a first terminal obtains an operation instruction of a user for clicking a setting interface of an answer assistant, the setting interface of the answer assistant is displayed in response to the operation instruction, after the user clicks an option of a search interface, the first terminal can present a column with the size of a search box in an editable state, and the size of the search interface can be adjusted by inputting a numerical value of 0-1 into the editable box, wherein 1 represents a full screen. The default numerical value of the edit box is, for example, 0.5, and the user can input a corresponding numerical value, for example, 0.3, in the edit box according to the size of the screen and the needs of the user, and at this time, the first terminal can acquire an interface setting instruction for the search interface and adjust the size of the search interface to 30% of the full screen in response to the interface setting instruction. Furthermore, the first terminal may further adjust the size of the display font according to the user's needs, and the specific setting method is similar to the setting method of the size of the search interface, which is not described herein again.

In step S110, a target title is extracted and a search request carrying the target title is sent to a server of a preset browser, so as to perform a search based on the target title in the preset browser.

For example, after the search interface shown in fig. 7 is displayed, the first terminal may obtain TextView of a text in the search box by using a getText () method, obtain a target topic and a candidate answer by using a getText () method, and after obtaining a specific content of the target topic, may send a search request carrying the target topic to a server of a preset browser, so that the server of the preset browser searches based on the content of the target topic, and displays a search result in the preset browser.

In step S111, a search result returned by the server of the preset browser based on the target title is received, and the search result is displayed on the search interface.

For example, since the first terminal displays a search interface in the same page of the candidate answer in response to the presentation instruction, after the server returns the search result based on the target topic to the first terminal, the first terminal may present the search result in the search interface shown in fig. 7. Based on the method, the user can select corresponding answers according to the search results, and therefore the answer accuracy is improved.

Therefore, the answer prompting method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can also automatically acquire the target question and search in the custom browser according to the target question, so that the user can answer according to the search result, time waste caused by manual question input can be avoided, and the answer accuracy can be effectively improved. In addition, because the resolution ratios of the terminal screens are different, the display sizes of the search interfaces are slightly different, and the size of the search interface can be set according to the needs of the user, so that the influence on the display of the small-screen answer box can be reduced, the display number of large-screen search results can be increased, and the browsing of the search structure content is reduced.

Server side

Fig. 8 illustrates a flowchart of an answer prompting method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. As can be seen from fig. 8, the method is applicable to a server, and includes the following steps S801 to S802:

in step S801, reference answers submitted by a plurality of second terminals are obtained according to a target question and a candidate answer displayed by a target application installed in a first terminal.

In an example, a target application of an interactive live question answering game is installed on a first terminal, and the target application can run in system environments such as Android, iOS or windows. When the intelligent answering function of the target application needs to be adopted, the user can pre-select the required functions such as intelligent answering and automatic answering in the setting interface of the answering assistant shown in fig. 2. Based on this, when a user uses a target application to answer, the user can start an answer assistant on an application interface of the first terminal, and then start the target application, when a game to be answered starts, the target application can pop up a target question and a candidate answer, at this time, the first terminal can upload the target question and the candidate answer to the server, after receiving the target question and the candidate answer, the server can acquire a reference answer submitted by the answered user, namely the second terminal, according to the target question and the candidate answer, and the acquisition process can be that the answer assistant installed in the second terminal uploads the target question and the selected candidate answer to the server, so that the server can perform analysis processing according to the uploaded answer.

In step S802, the distribution probability of each candidate answer being selected is analyzed according to a plurality of reference answers, and the distribution probability is sent to the first terminal.

For example, after receiving the reference answers submitted by the second terminals, the server may analyze and count the selected candidate answers based on the reference answers and by using a built-in algorithm operation, so as to obtain a distribution probability of the selected candidate answers, where the presentation form of the distribution probability includes a percentage of the selected candidate answers or an actual number of the selected candidate answers. Considering the answer accuracy and the problem that answer time needs to be reserved for unanswered users, the embodiment may demarcate the submitted reference answers by setting a first preset time, that is, analyzing the selected percentage or the actual number of each candidate answer according to a plurality of reference answers submitted within the first preset time, and sending the selected percentage or the actual number of each candidate answer to the first terminal, where the first terminal may present the selected percentage or the actual number to the user through the answer assistant when receiving the distribution probability, so as to facilitate the user to answer with reference. The first preset time may be set to be between one third and two thirds of the answering setting time, for example, to be one half of the answering setting time, so that the accuracy of the answers can be further ensured on the basis of obtaining a sufficient number of answers. It should be noted that: although the embodiment is based on the reference answers submitted within the first preset time for statistics, it should be clear that, since the candidate answers pop up, the server performs analysis statistics in real time according to the submitted reference answers and feeds back the reference answers to the terminal that has not answered in real time, and only as the answering time is prolonged, the submitted reference answers are more and more, which is beneficial to determining the accuracy of each answer.

Based on the above method, referring to fig. 9, the embodiment of the present disclosure may further include the following steps S803 to S804:

in step S803, a display request sent by the first terminal is received, where the display request is used to request to associate a preset browser and display a search interface.

For example, when detecting that a target title pops up, the first terminal may send a display request requesting to associate a preset browser and display a search interface to the server. Taking the example that the first terminal requests to associate the hundred-degree browser and display the hundred-degree search interface, the server may perform association operation with the hundred-degree browser based on the display request, and feed back a display instruction including an association result to the first terminal.

In step S804, a display instruction is returned to the first terminal in response to the display request, so that the first terminal associates with the preset browser and displays the search interface on the same page of the candidate answer.

For example, the server may establish an association with a preset browser in response to a presentation request from the first terminal, and feed back a presentation instruction including an associated result to the first terminal. When receiving the display instruction, the first terminal can automatically associate the preset browser according to the display instruction, and displays a search interface shown in fig. 7 below the title box, where the search interface may be a search interface such as Baidu search or Google search, and is related to the associated preset browser type. Based on the method, the first terminal can obtain the specific content of the target title and send the search request carrying the target title to the server of the preset browser, so that the server of the preset browser can respond to the search request and search in the user-defined WebKtext search browser based on the content of the target title. After the search result based on the target topic is obtained, the server with the preset browser can also return the search result to the first terminal, so that the first terminal can display the search result in the search interface shown in fig. 7. Based on the method, the user can select corresponding answers according to the displayed search results, and therefore the answer accuracy is improved.

Therefore, the answer prompting method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can also automatically acquire the target question and search in the custom browser according to the target question, so that the user can answer according to the search result, time waste caused by manual question input can be avoided, and the answer accuracy can be effectively improved.

The answer prompting method provided by the embodiment of the disclosure is exemplarily described below with reference to fig. 10. As can be seen from fig. 10, the answer prompting method specifically includes the following steps S1001 to S1014:

in step S1001, the first terminal displays a target topic and a candidate answer;

in step S1002, the first terminal sends a vibration prompt when detecting that the candidate answer pops up;

in step S1003, the first terminal sends a display request to the server when detecting that the target title pops up;

in step S1004, the server feeds back a presentation instruction to the first terminal in response to the presentation request;

in step S1005, the first terminal associates a preset browser according to the display instruction and displays a search interface on the same page of the candidate answer;

in step S1006, the first terminal extracts a target title and sends a search request carrying the target title to a server of a preset browser;

in step S1007, the first terminal receives a search result based on the target topic returned by the server that presets the browser, and displays the search result on the search interface;

in step S1008, the first terminal sends the target topic and the candidate answer to the server;

in step S1009, the second terminal submits the target title and the reference answer to the server;

in step S1010, the server analyzes the distribution probability of each candidate answer being selected according to the target question and the reference answers submitted by the plurality of second terminals;

in step S1011, the server sends the distribution probability that each candidate answer is selected to the first terminal;

in step S1012, the first terminal calibrates each candidate answer based on the distribution probability of each candidate answer being selected, so as to show the reference probability of each candidate answer being selected;

in step S1013, the first terminal detects a preset automatic question answering time and a time when a question has been answered;

in step S1014, the first terminal submits the candidate answer with the highest reference probability among the distribution probabilities as an answer to the server when detecting that the time to answer the question is equal to the automatic answering time.

Based on the above process, the answer prompting method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure transmits the target question and the candidate answer to the server, so that the server obtains the submitted reference answer according to the target question and the candidate answer, analyzes the distribution probability of each candidate answer being selected according to the plurality of reference answers, and finally displays the distribution probability to the user as a reference, thereby assisting the user in answering the question quickly and accurately. On the basis, the technical scheme can also set automatic answer time and automatically answer the candidate answer with the maximum reference probability issued by the server, so that the situation that the user misses the answer setting time is avoided, and an on-hook mode can be realized. Furthermore, the technical scheme of the disclosure can also automatically acquire the target question and search in the custom browser according to the target question so that the user can answer the question according to the search result, thereby not only avoiding time waste caused by manual question input, but also effectively improving the accuracy of answering. In addition, the technical scheme can also set an answer prompting function to remind the user to start answering, so that the missing of the optimal answer opportunity is avoided.
