Detailed Description

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments that can be derived from the embodiments given herein by a person of ordinary skill in the art are intended to be within the scope of the present disclosure.

In order to improve the flexibility and interest of user configuration in the instant messaging system and further improve user experience, the instant messaging system provided by the embodiment of the application can dynamically adjust the head portrait of the user in real time according to the communication content information input in the user session process. Referring to the example shown in fig. 1, the instant messaging system may include an instant messaging server and an instant messaging client installed on a terminal device associated with a user. The instant messaging service end can obtain communication content information input by a first user in an instant messaging session during the instant messaging process between the first user and at least one second user, determine the current target emotion category information of the first user according to the communication content information, further determine a target picture corresponding to the target emotion category information (the emotion category information of the target picture corresponds to the target emotion category), and dynamically adjust the head portrait of the first user into the target picture. The target picture may be a static picture or a dynamic picture, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

In the embodiment of the application, the target picture corresponding to the target emotion category information is determined, and various implementation manners can be provided. For example, in an implementation manner, the target emotion category information may be added to a picture adopted by the current avatar of the first user, that is, a target picture with the target emotion category information is synthesized on the basis of an original picture and is displayed as the avatar of the first user.

Or, in another implementation, a plurality of alternative pictures which can be displayed as the first user head portrait can be provided, and the emotion category information is marked in the alternative pictures. After the target emotion type information is determined, an alternative picture with emotion category information corresponding to the target emotion category can be determined from the multiple alternative pictures to serve as the target picture. The following explains the user avatar adjustment process in this implementation with reference to the flowchart shown in fig. 2.

Example 1

S101: the instant messaging server side obtains a plurality of alternative pictures which can be used as the first user head portrait for displaying and the emotion category information of each alternative picture.

In order to achieve the purpose of dynamically adjusting the avatar of the user according to the emotion of the user, the instant messaging server can obtain the following two information:

1. and the picture can be used as an alternative picture displayed by the head portrait of the user.

The instant messaging server can obtain the alternative pictures in various ways. For example, in one approach, multiple alternative pictures submitted by an instant messaging client associated with a first user may be received. Specifically, when the first user authorizes the instant messaging server to dynamically adjust the avatar of the user, the process of submitting the alternative pictures can be entered through an entry provided by an instant messaging client associated with the first user. For example, a "dynamic head portrait" option may be provided in a "setting" option of the instant messaging client, and used as an entry for submitting the candidate pictures, after the first user clicks the "dynamic head portrait" option, the instant messaging client may provide a first operation option for submitting a plurality of candidate pictures, and then submit the plurality of candidate pictures to the instant messaging server after receiving the plurality of candidate pictures through the first operation option, and the instant messaging server stores the plurality of candidate pictures as personalized information of the first user.

Or, in another mode, the instant messaging service provider may collect a plurality of general candidate pictures in advance and store the pictures in the instant messaging service end, that is, for a user using the instant messaging client, if the user does not submit a candidate picture that can be used as personalized information, after the instant messaging service end is authorized to dynamically adjust the user's avatar, the instant messaging service end may dynamically adjust the user's avatar using the stored general candidate pictures.

2. And emotion category information corresponding to each alternative picture.

Whether the first user submits the personalized alternative pictures or the pre-collected general alternative pictures, the instant messaging server can determine the emotion category information corresponding to each alternative picture through an image recognition technology. As an example, if the candidate picture includes face information, the face expression in the candidate picture may be identified by an OpenCV image processing technique, so as to obtain emotion category information corresponding to the candidate picture. The implementation process of obtaining the emotion category information by image recognition in the embodiment of the application is not particularly limited, and can be implemented by referring to the related technology.

In addition, emotion category information of each alternative picture can be obtained in a manual labeling mode. Taking a universal alternative picture as an example, manual labeling can be performed when the alternative pictures are collected to obtain emotion category information of each alternative picture, and then the alternative pictures and the corresponding emotion category information are stored by the instant messaging service end. The emotion category information of the personalized alternative pictures submitted by the first user can also be manually marked by the first user. Specifically, after receiving a plurality of candidate pictures through the first operation option, the instant messaging client associated with the first user may provide a second operation option for submitting emotion category information of each candidate picture, and further, after receiving the emotion category information of each candidate picture through the second operation option, submit the candidate pictures and corresponding emotion category information to the instant messaging server for storage.

As an example, the emotion categories in the embodiment of the present application may be classified into positive emotion categories and negative emotion categories at a coarse granularity; or, the emotion categories such as happy feeling, angry feeling, feeble feeling and the like can be classified in a fine-grained manner, and the emotion categories can be specifically classified by combining with practical application requirements, which is not limited in the embodiment of the application.

In the actual application process, there may be emotion categories without corresponding alternative pictures. For example, the first user 1 may submit the alternative pictures corresponding to the emotion category of "angry" through the associated instant messaging client 1, and the instant messaging server may return a prompt message to the instant messaging client 1, so that the first user 1 submits the alternative pictures corresponding to "angry" through the instant messaging client 1. Or, the instant messaging service end may supplement the alternative pictures corresponding to the emotion category of "angry" in the general alternative pictures to the alternative pictures of the first user 1, that is, may dynamically adjust the avatar of the first user 1 by using the personalized alternative pictures corresponding to the emotion categories other than the emotion category of "angry" and the general alternative pictures corresponding to the emotion categories of "angry".

In addition, in an actual application process, some emotion categories may correspond to multiple different alternative pictures, that is, at least two alternative pictures have the same first emotion category information. For example, the emotion category of "happy" in the candidate pictures submitted by the first user 1 through the associated instant messaging client 1 corresponds to 3 candidate pictures, if the "happy" is determined as the target emotion category information of the first user 1 in the subsequent processing process, the instant messaging server may randomly select one of the 3 candidate pictures as the target picture when determining the target picture corresponding to the target emotion category; or, all the 3 candidate pictures can be determined as target pictures, and the 3 target pictures are sequentially displayed in a picture carousel mode; alternatively, the following processing may be performed: the instant messaging service end sends the 3 optional pictures to the instant messaging client 1, and the first user 1 determines the display priority information of the 3 optional pictures; correspondingly, after receiving the 3 candidate pictures returned by the instant messaging service end, the instant messaging client 1 may provide a third operation option for determining the display priority information of the 3 candidate pictures, and submit the display priority information of the 3 candidate pictures to the instant messaging service end after receiving the display priority information of the 3 candidate pictures through the third operation option. Therefore, the instant messaging server can determine the target picture from the 3 candidate pictures according to the determined display priority information. For example, the candidate picture with the highest display priority may be determined as the target picture, or all of the 3 candidate pictures may be determined as the target picture, and carousel is performed according to the display priority from high to low, which may not be specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

S102: and in the process of instant messaging between the first user and at least one second user, creating a temporary storage area for the corresponding session.

In an actual application process, if the avatar of the first user 1 is adjusted according to the emotion category information "angry" determined in the conversation process between the first user 1 and the second user 1, after the second user 2 not participating in the conversation clicks and refreshes the avatar of the first user 1, the adjusted avatar representing "angry" may also be displayed to the second user 2, in order to avoid misunderstanding of the second user 2 caused by such a situation and further influence the use experience of the second user 2, the instant messaging service end may create a temporary storage area for the conversation between the first user 1 and the second user 1, and store the avatar adjusted by the first user 1 in the conversation process through the temporary storage area. That is, for the second user 1 participating in the conversation, the dynamically adjusted avatar representing "angry" may be presented to the second user 1 through the information stored in the temporary storage area corresponding to the conversation; for the second user 2 not participating in the conversation, the default avatar set by the first user 1 can be saved through the avatar configuration option of the configuration center, and when the second user 2 refreshes the avatar of the first user 1, the default avatar is presented to the second user 2.

In addition, the first user may have conversations with multiple second users, and different chat contents may be involved in the conversation with different second users, corresponding to different emotion category information. For example, the emotion category information when the first user 1 and the second user 1 have a conversation is "angry", and the emotion category information when a multi-person conversation is performed with the second user 3 and the second user 4 is "happy", that is, the first user 1 needs to show different avatars for different second users. For this reason, the instant messaging service end may create different temporary storage areas for different sessions of the first user 1, and store the avatar of the first user 1 adjusted in different sessions through the different temporary storage areas. In the above example, the following two temporary storage areas may be created: a temporary storage area 1 corresponding to a session between a first user 1 and a second user 1; a temporary storage area 2 corresponding to a session between a first user 1, a second user 3 and a second user 4.

Taking the temporary storage area 1 as an example, after receiving an operation instruction for creating a session between the first user 1 and the second user 1, an instant messaging client associated with the first user 1 may submit the operation instruction to an instant messaging server, and the instant messaging server creates the corresponding temporary storage area 1 for the session. The operation instruction for creating the session in the embodiment of the present application may be embodied in many different forms. For example, after the first user 1 finds the second user 1 through the friend list provided by the instant messaging client 1 or searches the second user 1 in the search bar, the first user 1 may click the avatar of the second user 1 to create a session with the second user 1, and after the instant messaging client 1 obtains the action of the first user 1 clicking the avatar of the second user 1, the action may be submitted to the instant messaging server as an operation instruction; or, after the first user 1 clicks the avatar of the second user 1, the instant messaging client 1 may provide an operation option for creating the session, for example, the operation option may be embodied as a "send message" key, and after the instant messaging client 1 obtains an action that the first user 1 clicks the "send message" key, the operation option may be submitted to the instant messaging server as an operation instruction.

S103: and obtaining communication content information input by the first user in the conversation process, determining target emotion category information of the first user according to the communication content information, and determining a target picture from alternative pictures with the target emotion category information.

Taking the conversation between the first user 1 and the second user 1 as an example, the instant messaging client 1 associated with the first user 1 may submit the communication content information input by the first user 1 in the conversation process to the instant messaging server, and the instant messaging server determines the target emotion category information of the first user 1 according to the obtained communication content information. As an example, the communication content information of the first user 1 may be embodied as text information, voice information, and the like, which may not be specifically limited in this embodiment of the present application.

The instant messaging service end can determine whether to dynamically adjust the avatar of the first user 1 in various ways. For example, in one mode, the instant messaging service end may perform avatar adjustment at regular time, that is, every preset time period T, it may determine whether to perform avatar adjustment according to the obtained communication content information.

For example, the timing may be started when the first user 1 establishes a session with the second user 1 (the timing time may be denoted as 0), and if the duration of the session between the first user 1 and the second user 1 reaches the preset time length T (the timing time may be denoted as T), the target emotion category information of the first user 1 may be determined according to the communication content information input by the first user 1 obtained within the time period from the timing time 0 to T, and then the first avatar adjustment may be completed. It can be understood that, the instant messaging service end may determine the target emotion category information of the first user 1 by using all the communication content information input by the first user 1 within the preset time length T; or, the target emotion category information of the first user 1 may also be determined by using part of the communication content information input by the first user 1 within the preset time duration T, which may not be specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

After the first avatar adjustment is completed, the instant messaging service end can continue to obtain the communication content information newly input by the first user 1 in the session, and if the emotion classification information of the first user 1 is determined to be changed according to the newly input communication content information, the second avatar update adjustment can be performed according to the changed emotion classification information. Correspondingly, the instant messaging server can count again after the first avatar adjustment is completed, and determine whether to perform the second avatar adjustment when the session duration reaches T again, and so on, so as to dynamically adjust the avatar of the first user 1 in real time. Or, the instant messaging service end may also continue to perform cumulative timing after the first avatar adjustment is completed, and when the session duration reaches 2T (the timing time at this time may be recorded as 2T), determine whether to perform the second avatar adjustment according to the communication content information input by the first user 1 within the time period of the timing time T-2T.

Or, in another mode, the instant messaging service end can determine whether to adjust the avatar according to the obtained messaging content information every time a preset number of messaging content information are obtained. Taking the preset number of 100 as an example, the counting can be started when the first user 1 establishes a session with the second user 1, 1 can be added each time a count value of one piece of communication content information input by the first user 1 is obtained, and if the number of the obtained communication content information reaches 100, the target emotion category information of the first user 1 can be determined according to the 100 pieces of communication content information, so as to complete the first avatar adjustment. It can be understood that, the instant messaging service end can determine the target emotion category information of the first user 1 by using the 100 pieces of communication content information input by the first user 1; alternatively, partial information in the 100 pieces of communication content information may also be used to determine the target emotion category information of the first user 1, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Similarly, after the first avatar adjustment is completed, the instant messaging service end can continue to obtain the communication content information newly input by the first user 1 in the session, and recount the number of the newly input communication content information to determine whether to perform the second avatar adjustment; or, the instant messaging service end can also continuously accumulate and count the number of the newly input communication content information, and when the number of the obtained communication content information reaches 200, determine whether to perform the second avatar adjustment according to the 100 newly obtained communication content information.

In this embodiment of the application, the preset number may also be set to 1, that is, the instant messaging service end may perform emotion analysis on the communication content information input by the first user 1 in real time, and perform avatar adjustment in time when it is determined that the emotion category information of the first user 1 changes.

As an example, if the communication content information is Text information, the instant messaging service end may determine the target emotion category information of the first user 1 through a Text emotion analysis (Text emotion analysis) technology. If the communication content information is voice information, the instant messaging service end may determine the target emotion category information of the first user 1 through a voice recognition (automatic speech recognition) technology, or may determine the target emotion category information of the first user 1 through a text emotion analysis technology after the voice information is converted into text information, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application. The specific process of emotion analysis can be implemented by referring to the related art, and is not described in detail here.

In addition, if the obtained communication content information comprises the emoticons, the target emotion category information can be determined according to the emotion category information represented by the emoticons. Specifically, the emotion category information represented by each emoticon in the communication content information can be obtained, the number of the emoticons corresponding to different emotion category information is counted, and the emotion category information with the largest number of corresponding emoticons is determined as the target emotion category information. For example, if the communication content information includes 4 emoticons, and the emotion category information represented by 1 emoticon is "casualty" and the emotion category information represented by 3 emoticons is "angry", the emotion category information "angry" with the largest number of corresponding emoticons can be determined as the target emotion category information.

After the target emotion category information is obtained, the instant messaging service terminal can determine a target picture from the alternative pictures with the target emotion category information. As illustrated above, the target emotion category information determined when the first user 1 has a conversation with the second user 1 is "angry", and the instant messaging service end may determine at least one target picture from the alternative pictures representing "angry" for modifying the avatar of the first user 1.

S104: and the instant messaging server stores the information of the target picture in a temporary storage area corresponding to the session.

As an example, the instant messaging server may store the target picture in a temporary storage area corresponding to the session, so that the instant messaging client accesses the temporary storage area to obtain the target picture; or the storage address information of the target picture can be stored in a temporary storage area corresponding to the session, so that the instant messaging client accesses the temporary storage area to obtain the storage address of the target picture, and then the target picture is obtained according to the storage address. The information of the target picture stored in the temporary storage area may not be specifically limited in the embodiment of the present application, as long as the instant messaging client can obtain the target picture.

S105: and the instant messaging client associated with the participant user of the conversation adjusts the head portrait of the first user into the target picture by accessing the temporary storage area.

In the instant messaging process, messages input by users participating in a conversation, or system messages generated by an instant messaging service end and the like can be forwarded to an instant messaging client associated with the users participating in the conversation by a 'message center', and the instant messaging client can passively receive specific message contents in real time. However, the user avatar belongs to a kind of user configuration information, the information related to the avatar may be stored in a "user configuration center", and the related information may be pulled from the user configuration center by the instant messaging client at the start time of the session or at the time when the user manually clicks to refresh the avatar, and the configuration information may not be actively refreshed in the specific session process, so that the change of the avatar cannot be displayed in time on the side of the instant messaging client associated with the second user when the avatar of the first user is updated. Therefore, in the embodiment of the application, the instant messaging client associated with the participant user of the session can access the temporary storage area corresponding to the session, and the avatar of the first user is modified into the target picture.

In the embodiment of the application, the instant messaging client can update the head portrait of the first user in time in a plurality of modes. For example, in one mode, the instant messaging server may send a refresh command to the instant messaging clients associated with the participant users of the session, and notify each instant messaging client to update the avatar of the first user in time. In the above example, the refresh instruction may be sent to the instant messaging clients associated with the first user 1 and the second user 1, so that both the two parties of communication can view the avatar change of the first user 1 in time, and thus, the second user 1 can know the emotion change of the first user 1 in time according to the avatar change, and can adjust the chat content according to the situation, which is helpful to improve the user experience.

Or, in another mode, a thread for refreshing the head portraits of the participant users can be run in the instant messaging client associated with the participant users of the conversation, and the temporary storage area corresponding to the conversation can be actively accessed, so that the head portraits of the users can be timely and synchronously updated to the instant messaging clients for displaying when the head portraits change.

As an example, when the session between the first user 1 and the second user 1 is ended, the instant messaging server may recycle the temporary storage area created for the session, so that the information about the change of the avatar of the first user 1 is also cleared, and when the first user 1 establishes instant messaging with the second user 1 again, the default avatar of the first user 1 may be presented to the second user 1.

In conclusion, the purpose of dynamically adjusting the head portrait of the user in real time according to the chat context of the user can be achieved. It can be understood that different types of emotions may occur during the session between the first user 1 and the second user 1, and the instant messaging service end can dynamically adjust the avatar of the first user 1 during the session with the second user 1 according to the different types of emotions. Or, when the first user 1 respectively converses with different second users, different types of emotions may appear due to different chat contents even at the same time, so that the instant messaging server can dynamically adjust the avatar of the first user 1 during conversation with different second users according to the different types of emotions, so as to display different avatars in the chat window interfaces of the first user 1 and the different second users.
