Along the direction X1, the flow correlation of the application program corresponding to the icon positioned in the second dimension X and the application program corresponding to the middle icon is increased in sequence; along the direction X2, the flow correlations of the application corresponding to the icon located in the second dimension X and the application corresponding to the intermediate icon are sequentially reduced.

In other embodiments, the first direction of the first dimension Y may be a direction Y2 shown in fig. 2, the second direction of the first dimension Y may be a direction Y1 shown in fig. 2, the first direction of the second dimension X may be a direction X1 shown in fig. 2, and the second direction of the second dimension X may be a direction X2 shown in fig. 2. The direction Y1 is opposite to the direction Y2, and the direction X1 is opposite to the direction X2. That is, along the direction Y1, the correlation of the same kind between the application program corresponding to the icon located in the first dimension Y and the application program corresponding to the middle icon increases in sequence; along the direction Y2, the same-class correlations of the application corresponding to the icon located in the first dimension Y and the application corresponding to the middle icon are sequentially reduced.

The direction Y1 is opposite to the direction Y2, and the direction X1 is opposite to the direction X2. That is, along the direction Y1, the correlation of the same kind between the application program corresponding to the icon located in the first dimension Y and the application program corresponding to the middle icon increases in sequence; along the direction Y2, the correlation of the same kind between the application program corresponding to the icon located in the first dimension Y and the application program corresponding to the middle icon decreases in sequence. Along the direction X1, the flow relevance of the application program corresponding to the icon positioned in the second dimension X and the application program corresponding to the middle icon is sequentially increased; along the direction X2, the flow correlations of the application corresponding to the icon located in the second dimension X and the application corresponding to the intermediate icon are sequentially reduced.

The specific directions of the first direction and the second direction are not limited, and the specific forms of the icons in the icon interface about the same-class correlation and the process correlation are not limited.

Note that, the first direction of the first dimension Y, the second direction of the first dimension Y, the first direction of the second dimension X, and the second direction of the second dimension X are all based on the intersection 302 where the middle icon is located.

In the example of fig. 2, the icon interface 301 includes a plurality of icons in both a first dimension Y and a second dimension X, with the middle icon being icon C located at the intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X. The first dimension Y is the longitude of the spherical icon interface, and the second dimension X is the latitude of the spherical icon interface. The first direction Y1 of the first dimension Y is a direction from the icon C longitudinally upward along the meridian, and the second direction Y2 of the first dimension Y is a direction from the icon C longitudinally downward along the meridian. The first direction X1 of the second dimension X is a direction from the icon C to the right in the lateral direction of the weft. The second direction X2 of the second dimension X is a direction from the icon C to the left in the lateral direction of the latitude line.

The application program corresponding to the icon C and the application program corresponding to the icon in the first dimension Y have the same kind of correlation. The application program corresponding to the icon C and the application program corresponding to the icon located in the second dimension X have flow correlation.

That is, the application corresponding to icon a, the application corresponding to icon B, and the application corresponding to icon D are of the same type as the application corresponding to icon C. The application program corresponding to the icon E, the application program corresponding to the icon F and the application program corresponding to the icon C are related in the flow.

Moreover, the same-class correlation between the application program corresponding to the icon B and the application program corresponding to the icon C is strongest, the same-class correlation between the application program corresponding to the icon a and the application program corresponding to the icon C is weaker, and the same-class correlation between the application program corresponding to the icon D and the application program corresponding to the icon C is weakest. The flow correlation between the application program corresponding to the icon F and the application program corresponding to the icon C is strongest, and the flow correlation between the application program corresponding to the icon E and the application program corresponding to the icon C is weakest.

For example, the application program corresponding to the icon C is pan treasure, the application program corresponding to the icon a is kyoto, the application program corresponding to the icon B is tianmao, the application program corresponding to the icon D is many pieces, the application program corresponding to the icon E is WeChat, and the application program corresponding to the icon F is Payment treasure.

Thus, the icons in the first dimension Y correspond to applications having similar relevance to naobao, such as jingdong, tianmao, and many spellings. The icon in the second dimension X corresponds to an application program having a process correlation with the pan, a WeChat and a Payment treasure. The same kind of correlation between Tianmao and Taobao is stronger than that between Jingdong and Taobao. The similar correlation between the large amount of the Chinese character and the Taobao is the lowest. The flow correlation of the payment treasure and the panning treasure is the highest, and the flow correlation of the WeChat and the panning treasure is the lowest.

As such, the user may click the icon of the tab to enter the tab to view the merchandise after moving the icon of the tab to the intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X. The user can also quickly find icons of the application programs such as the Jingdong application program, the Tianmao application program, the Shuduo application program and the like, so that price comparison can be carried out on a plurality of shopping application programs. The user can also quickly find the icon of the WeChat, so that when the user selects the commodity, the commodity is pushed to WeChat friends to inquire whether to buy the commodity or discuss the commodity together. The user can also quickly find the icon of the payment treasure, so as to check the account balance and decide whether to buy. Therefore, the user can conveniently and quickly find the icons similar to Taobao or related to the process on the icon interface 301, and the icons are prevented from being searched for a long time, so that the use efficiency and the convenience of the user on the electronic device 100 are improved, and the user experience is further improved.

In addition, in the example of fig. 2, the applications having the same kind of relevance as the application corresponding to the icon C may include other applications besides the application corresponding to the icon a, the application corresponding to the icon B, and the application corresponding to the icon D, which are not all shown in fig. 2 due to the shape and area of the icon interface 301. It is understood that the flow correlation of the application corresponding to the icon C may gradually decrease from the strongest to the weakest from the application corresponding to the icon B to the application corresponding to the icon a, to the other application having the same kind of correlation with the application corresponding to the icon C, which is not shown, to the application corresponding to the icon D. That is, the applications corresponding to the icon C having the same-class correlation may be arranged in sequence from strong to weak according to the same-class correlation, so as to form a closed ring around the first dimension Y in which the icon C is located.

Similarly, the applications having flow correlation corresponding to the icon C may be arranged in sequence from strong to weak according to the flow correlation, so as to form a closed ring around the second dimension X where the icon C is located. To avoid redundancy, it is not described herein.

In addition, the application corresponding to the icon G may have similar relevance to the application corresponding to the icon E, and the application corresponding to the icon H may have similar relevance to the application corresponding to the icon F. For example, the application corresponding to the icon E is WeChat, and the application corresponding to the icon G is QQ. The application program corresponding to the icon F is a Paibao, and the application program corresponding to the icon H is an application program of a bank card.

Of course, the application corresponding to the icon G may have a flow correlation with the application corresponding to the icon E, and the application corresponding to the icon H may have a flow correlation with the application corresponding to the icon F. The specific arrangement of the icons other than the first dimension Y and the second dimension X of the icon C is not limited herein.

In step S16, the operation on the icon interface 301 may include at least one of: a slide operation, a click operation, and a gravity sensing operation.

In one example, as shown in fig. 6, a user may slide the icon interface 301 with a finger in a first direction X1 along a second dimension X to rotate the spherical icon interface 301, thereby causing the icon E to move to an intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X. In this way, switching of the intermediate icon is achieved. At this time, the intermediate icon is changed to E, and the correlation is updated according to the current intermediate icon E, so that the application program corresponding to the icon of the first dimension Y and the application program corresponding to the icon E have the same kind of correlation, and the application program corresponding to the icon of the second dimension X and the application program corresponding to the icon E have the process correlation.

Specifically, in the example of fig. 6, the application program corresponding to the icon E1, the application program corresponding to the icon E2, the application program corresponding to the icon E3, and the application program corresponding to the middle icon E have the same kind of correlation, and the application program corresponding to the icon E3, the application program corresponding to the icon E4, and the application program corresponding to the middle icon E have the flow correlation.

It will be appreciated that the user may also slide on the icon interface 301 in a second direction X2 of the second dimension X to rotate the spherical icon interface 301 so that the icon F moves to the intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X.

The user may also slide on the icon interface 301 along a first direction Y1 of the first dimension Y to rotate the spherical icon interface 301, thereby causing the icon D to move to the intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X.

The user may also slide on the icon interface 301 in a second direction Y2 of the first dimension Y to rotate the spherical icon interface 301, thereby causing the icon B to move to the intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X.

The user may also slide on the icon interface 301 in a direction between Y2 and X1 to rotate the spherical icon interface 301 to move the icon G to the intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X. The specific direction in which the user slides is not limited herein.

In another example, as shown in FIG. 7, a user may click on an area outside of the icon interface 301 with a finger to rotate the spherical icon interface 301, thereby causing the icon E to move to the intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X. In this way, switching of the intermediate icon is achieved.

In yet another example, as shown in FIG. 8, the user tilts the electronic device 100 to cause a spherical icon interface 301 to rotate according to gravity sensing, thereby causing the icon E to move to the intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X. In this way, switching of the intermediate icon is achieved.

In addition, an application corresponding to the intermediate icon may be started according to an operation on the intermediate icon. Therefore, the application program corresponding to the intermediate icon is started. In the present embodiment, the operation on the middle icon is a single click. It is understood that in other embodiments, the operation on the middle icon may be a double click, a long press, or other operation. The specific manner of operation of the intermediate icon is not limited herein. It will be appreciated that after the application corresponding to the intermediate icon is launched, the display screen 30 displays the interface of the application corresponding to the intermediate icon.

Referring to fig. 9, in some embodiments, step S18 includes:

step S182: updating the correlation according to historical data of the plurality of icons;

step S184: updating the plurality of icons in at least two dimensions according to the updated relevance.

Correspondingly, the updating module 18 is configured to update the correlation according to the historical data of the plurality of icons; and means for updating the plurality of icons in at least two dimensions according to the updated correlations.

In this manner, updating a plurality of icons in at least two dimensions based on the current intermediate icon is achieved. In particular, the relevance may include a category of relevance and a relevance value that represents how relevant the intermediate icon is to each of the other icons.

In the example of FIG. 6, the categories of dependencies include homogeneous dependencies and flow dependencies. The updated correlations include correlation values of the icon E1, the icon E2, the icon E3, the icon E4, and the icon E5. The updated correlations are shown in table 1 below.

TABLE 1

Correlation of same kind	Correlation value	Correlation of flow	Correlation value
				Icon E2	7	Icon E5	9
Icon E1	6	Icon E4	8
				Icon E3	1

After the correlations shown in table 1 are obtained, since the at least two dimensions include the first dimension Y and the second dimension X, the correlations between the application program corresponding to the icon in the first dimension Y and the application program corresponding to the intermediate icon are similar correlations, and the correlations between the application program corresponding to the icon in the second dimension X and the application program corresponding to the intermediate icon are process correlations. Thus, the icons arranged in the first dimension Y may be determined to be: icon E1, icon E2, icon E3. It may also be determined that the icons arranged in the second dimension X are: icon E4 and icon E5.

Because of along the direction Y1, the same-class correlation between the application program corresponding to the icon in the first dimension Y and the application program corresponding to the middle icon is reduced in sequence; along the direction Y2, the same-class correlations of the application programs corresponding to the icons located in the first dimension Y and the application programs corresponding to the intermediate icons are sequentially increased. Therefore, the arrangement order of the icons E1, E2, E3 in the first dimension Y can be determined, and the specific positions of the icons E1, E2, E3 in the first dimension Y can be determined. The arrangement order of the icon E4 and the icon E5 in the second dimension X can also be determined, so as to determine the specific positions of the icon E4 and the icon E5 in the second dimension X.

In this way, step S184 may be implemented to update the plurality of icons in at least two dimensions according to the updated relevance, so that the electronic device 100 displays the icon interface 301 shown in fig. 6.

Referring to fig. 10, in some embodiments, step S182 includes:

step S1822: determining a correlation value of each icon with the middle icon according to the historical data of the icons;

step S1824: classifying the plurality of icons according to the category of relevance;

step S1826: and sorting each type of icon according to the correlation value to update the correlation.

Correspondingly, the updating module 18 is configured to determine a correlation value of each icon with the intermediate icon according to the history data of the plurality of icons; and for classifying the plurality of icons according to the category of relevance; and the system is used for respectively sorting each type of icons according to the correlation values so as to update the correlation.

In this way, updating the correlation based on the historical data of the plurality of icons is achieved. Specifically, the historical data includes: at least one of the default setting of the electronic device 100 for the icon, the starting times of the application program corresponding to the icon, the starting time of the application program corresponding to the icon, the switching times of the icon on the icon interface 301, and the position change state of the icon.

Specifically, the default setting of the icon by the electronic apparatus 100 refers to a value of the relevance assigned by the electronic apparatus 100 to the icon by default. The number of times of switching the icon on the icon interface 301 is the number of times of switching the application program corresponding to the intermediate icon to the application program corresponding to the icon by the user.

The position change state of the icon means whether or not the user forcibly adjusts the position of the icon. Specifically, when the user forcibly adjusts the position of the icon, the position change state of the icon is described as 1, and when the user does not forcibly adjust the position of the icon, the position change state of the icon is described as 0. In addition, the user can forcibly adjust the position of the icon by dragging or the like.

The starting times of the application program corresponding to the icon may refer to the total starting times of the application program corresponding to the icon in history, or may refer to the starting times of the application program corresponding to the icon within a preset time. For example, the number of starts over the past three days.

The starting time length of the application program corresponding to the icon may refer to the total starting time length of the application program corresponding to the icon in history, and may refer to the starting time length of each starting of the application program corresponding to the icon.

In addition, a weight may be assigned to each type of history data, so that a correlation value is calculated from each type of history data. For example, the history data includes 3 types: the number of times of switching the icon on the icon interface 301, the position change state of the icon, and the default setting of the icon by the electronic apparatus 100. The correlation value of the icon with the intermediate icon may be determined according to the following formula:

z＝n×p+m×q+o×r。

where Z denotes a correlation value, p denotes the number of times of switching the icon on the icon interface 301, q denotes the position change state of the icon, and r denotes default settings of the icon by the electronic apparatus 100. n, m, o are weighting coefficients, respectively.

Note that the sum of the weighting coefficients n, m, o may or may not be 1.

In one example, n is 2,m is 3,o is 1 and the sum of the weighting coefficients n, m, o is not 1. When the number of times of switching an icon on the icon interface 301 is 2, the user does not forcibly adjust the position of the icon, the position change state of the icon is 0, and the value of the correlation which the electronic device 100 assigns by default to the icon is 1, the correlation value calculated according to the above formula is 5.

In another example, n is 0.2, m is 0.7, o is 0.1, and the sum of the weighting coefficients n, m, o is 1. When the number of times of switching the icon on the icon interface 301 is 2, the user forcibly adjusts the position of the icon, the position change state of the icon is 1, and the value of the correlation which is assigned by the electronic device 100 as a default for the icon is 1, the correlation value calculated according to the above formula is 1.2.

In step S1824, classifying the plurality of icons according to the category of relevance means classifying icons of application programs having relevance to the application program corresponding to the current intermediate icon.

For example, in the example of fig. 6, after the intermediate icon is switched from icon C to icon E, icons E1, E2, and E3 may be classified into one type according to the relevance of the same type, and icons E4 and E5 may be classified into another type according to the relevance of the process.

Thereafter, icons E1, E2, and E3 can be sorted according to the associated values for icon E1, E2, and E3. The icons E4 and E5 may be sorted according to the associated values of the icons E4 and E5. Thus, the updated correlations shown in table 1 can be obtained.

Referring to fig. 11 and 12, in some embodiments, the control method includes:

step S11: when the interface 302 of the application program is displayed, according to the operation of the interface 302 of the application program which is displayed currently, a floating interface 303 is displayed on the interface 302 of the application program which is displayed currently, and the floating interface 303 comprises an icon of another application program which has correlation with the application program which is displayed currently.

Step S14 includes:

step S142: according to the operation on the floating interface 303, the icon interface 301 is displayed.

Correspondingly, the display module 14 is configured to, when the interface 302 of the application program is displayed, display a floating interface 303 on the interface 302 of the currently displayed application program according to an operation on the interface 302 of the currently displayed application program, where the floating interface 303 includes an icon of another application program having a correlation with the currently displayed application program. And is used for displaying the icon interface 301 according to the operation of the floating interface 303.

In this way, the floating interface 303 is displayed on the interface 302 of the currently displayed application program, and the icon interface 301 is displayed through the floating interface 303. In this way, the floating interface 303 does not completely block the currently displayed interface 302 of the application program, and the user can view the currently displayed interface 302 of the application program while performing an operation on the floating interface 303. Moreover, if the user needs to switch the currently displayed application program, the user may directly perform an operation on the floating interface 303 without exiting from the interface 302 of the currently displayed application program, and then enter the application program to be switched from the icon interface 301 shown in fig. 2. Therefore, the switching of the application program is simpler and more convenient, and the user experience is favorably improved.

In the present embodiment, the operation on the floating interface 303 is a two-finger enlarging operation. It is understood that in other embodiments, operations on the hover interface 303 may include a single click operation, a double finger zoom-out operation, or other operations. The specific form of operation of the levitating interface 303 is not limited herein.

In step S11, the floating interface 303 may include an icon of another application having the strongest correlation with the currently displayed application. Specifically, after the user operates the interface 302 of the currently displayed application program, the electronic device 100 may calculate the correlations of all other application programs except the currently displayed application program according to the foregoing formula, and display the icon corresponding to the application program with the strongest correlation on the floating interface.

Additionally, the operation of the interface 302 to the application includes at least one of: double click operation, long press operation and gravity sensing operation. The specific form of operation is not limited herein.

Referring to fig. 12, in one example, the currently displayed application is a gallery, and the user views a picture in the interface 302 of the currently displayed application. The user double-clicks the currently displayed interface 302 of the application, the currently displayed interface 302 of the application displays a hover interface 303, and the hover interface 303 includes the application having the strongest correlation with the gallery, i.e., the american show. The user presses the edge of the floating interface 303 with two fingers, and then the two fingers expand, the floating interface 303 expands, and the floating interface is displayed as the icon interface 301.

In another example, the currently displayed application is a gallery, and the user views a picture at the interface 302 of the currently displayed application. The user places a finger on the currently displayed interface 302 of the application program, and presses 5s for a long time, the currently displayed interface 302 of the application program displays a floating interface 303, and the floating interface 303 comprises the application with the strongest correlation with the gallery, namely the American show. The user double-clicks the edge of the floating interface 303, and the floating interface 303 expands and is displayed as the icon interface 301.

In yet another example, the currently displayed application is a gallery, and the user views a picture at the interface 302 of the currently displayed application. When the user tilts the electronic device 100, the interface 302 of the currently displayed application program displays a hover interface 303, and the hover interface 303 includes the application having the strongest correlation with the gallery, i.e., the american show. The user presses the floating interface 303 for a long time, and the floating interface 303 expands and is displayed as the icon interface 301.

The direction Y1 is opposite to the direction Y2, and the direction X1 is opposite to the direction X2. That is, along the direction Y1, the same-type correlations between the application programs corresponding to the icons located in the first dimension Y and the application programs corresponding to the intermediate icons sequentially increase; along the direction Y2, the same-class correlations of the application corresponding to the icon located in the first dimension Y and the application corresponding to the middle icon are sequentially reduced.

Specific directions of a first direction of a first dimension Y, a second direction of the first dimension Y, a first direction of a second dimension X, and a second direction of the second dimension X are not defined, and specific forms of the icons in the icon interface with respect to the same-class correlation, the process correlation, and the history correlation are not defined.

Note that, here, the first direction of the first dimension Y, the second direction of the first dimension Y, the first direction of the second dimension X, and the second direction of the second dimension X are based on the intersection 302 where the middle icon is located.

In one example, referring to fig. 12, an icon interface 301 includes a plurality of icons in a first dimension Y and a second dimension X, with the middle icon being an icon of a american show located at an intersection 302 of the first dimension Y and the second dimension X. Specifically, the first dimension Y is a meridian of the spherical icon interface, and the second dimension X is a latitude of the spherical icon interface. The first direction Y1 of the first dimension Y is a direction from the icons of the figure show up longitudinally along the meridian, and the second direction Y2 of the first dimension Y is a direction from the icons of the figure show down longitudinally along the meridian. The first direction X1 of the second dimension X is a direction from the icon of the american show to the right in the lateral direction of the weft. The second direction X2 of the second dimension X is a direction from the icons of the american show to the left in the lateral direction of the weft.

An icon of PS (one application processing an image), an icon of B612 (another application processing an image), an icon of a camera, and an icon of a MIX filter master (yet another application processing an image) are located at the first dimension Y. The PS, B612, camera, MIX filter teachers have similar relevance to the american show. The B612 has the strongest congenial correlation with the american show, the PS has a weaker congenial correlation with the american show, the MIX filter teacher has a weaker congenial correlation with the american show, and the camera has the weakest congenial correlation with the american show.

The icon of the alarm clock, the icon of the flight video, the icon of the WeChat and the icon of the QQ are located in the second dimension X, and the alarm clock, the flight video and the gallery have historical relevance. The historical relevance of the video application and the gallery is strongest, and the historical relevance of the alarm clock and the gallery is weaker. That is, before the user uses the gallery, the application used is the Tencent video. Before the user uses the Tencent video, the application used is an alarm clock.

Wechat, QQ and American show have flow relevance. WeChat has the strongest flow correlation with Mei Tuo Xiu, and QQ has weaker flow correlation with Mei Tuo Xiu. It will be appreciated that a user typically will send a processed picture to a WeChat circle of friends or QQ space sharing after processing the picture using a beautiful show. Therefore, the user can conveniently and quickly find the related application, and the user experience is improved.

Additionally, the area of the displayed icon interface 301 may be related to the user's manipulation of the hover interface 303. For example, as the user's fingers expand, the area of icon interface 301 expands.

Referring to fig. 13, in another example, after the user performs the double-finger enlarging operation on the floating interface 303, the area of the icon interface 301 displayed in fig. 13 is smaller than that of the icon interface 301 displayed in fig. 12 because the degree of the double-finger enlargement of the user is smaller. In fig. 12, the icon interface 301 includes 9 icons. In fig. 13, the icon interface 301 includes 5 icons. The American show is the application with the strongest correlation with the gallery, the Tencent video is the application with the strongest correlation with the gallery history, the WeChat is the application with the strongest correlation with the American show flow, B612 is the application with the strongest correlation with the American show in the same class, and the camera is the application with the weakest correlation with the American show in the same class. The specific area of icon interface 301 and the specific number of icons in icon interface 301 are not limited herein.

Referring to fig. 14, in some embodiments, the control method includes:

step S21: determining related information of the application program newly installed by the electronic device 100 and the application program corresponding to the intermediate icon;

step S22: the plurality of icons in at least two dimensions are updated according to the relevant information.

Correspondingly, the updating module 18 is configured to determine relevant information of the application newly installed by the electronic device 100 and the application corresponding to the intermediate icon; and for updating the plurality of icons in at least two dimensions in accordance with the relevant information.

In this way, the newly installed application program of the electronic device 100 is added to the icon interface. It will be appreciated that when a user installs a newly installed application, the icon of the newly installed application also needs to be located in the icon interface 301. Therefore, the icons of the newly installed application can be updated in at least two dimensions according to the relevant information of the application corresponding to the intermediate icon of the newly installed application, so as to determine the position of the icon of the newly installed application in the icon interface 301.

In one example, as shown in FIG. 15, the application corresponding to the middle icon is a beautiful show and the newly installed application is a MIX filter teacher. The PS, B612, camera in the first dimension Y has homogeneous correlation with the American show. B612 has the strongest homogeneous correlation with the American show, PS has weaker homogeneous correlation with the American show, and the camera has the weakest homogeneous correlation with the American show. And the MIX filter master has the strongest homogeneous correlation with the american show according to the relevant information. Therefore, in the icon interface 301 displayed according to the updated correlation, the icon of the MIX filter teacher replaces the position of the icon of B612 before the correlation update, and the icon of B612 moves to the position of PS before the correlation update.

In addition, in the case that the newly installed application does not have a correlation with the application corresponding to the intermediate icon, the position of the newly installed application on the icon interface 301 may be determined according to the category of the newly installed application.

Specifically, a benchmark application may be determined according to a category of the newly installed application, the benchmark application being located in a first dimension or a second dimension of the middle icon, the benchmark application having a homogeneous correlation with the newly installed application; determining a correlation of the newly installed application with the benchmark application; the location of the newly installed application on the icon interface 301 is determined based on the correlation of the newly installed application with the baseline application.

Further, the category of the newly installed application may be determined according to table 2 below, thereby determining the benchmark application. It is understood that the user may set a new category by himself or herself and drag the newly installed application program to the corresponding category, thereby determining the location of the newly installed application program on the icon interface 301.

TABLE 2

Numbering	Application type

2	E-commerce and finance
		3	Sound and video
4	Photography and image

Referring to FIG. 16, in one example, the newly installed application is QQ, the category of QQ is chat sociality class, and the category of WeChat is also chat sociality class, and the icon of WeChat is located in the second dimension X of the middle icon (the icon of the American show). Therefore, the WeChat is determined as the benchmark application of the newly installed application QQ. With the above formula, the similarity of QQ and WeChat is calculated to be the highest, and therefore, the icon of the newly installed application QQ is placed at the nearest position of the WeChat icon in the Y1 direction.
