As shown in fig. 8, "unknown process path information" in fig. 8 refers to process path information corresponding to a process for which a software identifier or a software type is not determined, the terminal reports the "unknown process path information", the user may also mark a process for which a software name or a software type is unknown and report a marking result, and the server may determine a software name and a software type corresponding to the process according to the marking data and issue the determined software name and the determined software type to more users.

And S210, combining the first software identifier and the second software identifier to obtain a current software identifier set.

Specifically, the terminal may combine each first software identifier into a first software identifier set, combine each second software identifier into a second software identifier set, perform union operation on the first software identifier set and the second software identifier set, and use a set obtained by the union operation as the current software identifier set. Therefore, the situation that the same software is repeatedly timed can be reduced.

S212, software use duration corresponding to each current software identifier in the current software identifier set is counted to obtain target use duration corresponding to the current software identifier.

The software use duration refers to the duration of using software by a user, that is, the duration of paying attention to the software by the user, and may also be referred to as software use duration or screen duration. The target usage duration may be a duration obtained by counting the software usage duration of the current software identifier according to a time dimension. The time dimension may include at least one of a day, week, month, year, or the like. The target usage duration refers to software usage duration in a statistical period, the statistical period may be set as required or preset, and the statistical period may be at least one of day, week, month, year, or the like. For example, when the software use duration corresponding to the target software identifier in 1 week needs to be counted, that is, the counting period is 1 week, the target use duration is the duration in which the user uses the target software in 1 week, and the target software is the software corresponding to the target software identifier.

Specifically, the terminal may count the software service durations of the current software identifier according to different time dimensions, so as to obtain target service durations corresponding to the different time dimensions. The terminal can obtain the target use duration corresponding to each software in a specific time period, and display the target use duration corresponding to each software, for example, the target use durations can be displayed in a descending order, that is, a larger target use duration is preferentially displayed.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain the target use duration corresponding to each software in a specific time period, obtain the duration of the specific time period as the specific duration, calculate a ratio of the target use duration to the specific duration, obtain a software duration ratio, and display the software duration ratios corresponding to each software. The specific time period may be set as desired, and may be, for example, 1 day or 1 week.

In some embodiments, the terminal may classify each piece of software, perform summation operation on target use durations of each piece of software of the same software type, use the sum as type use duration corresponding to the software type, calculate a ratio of the type use duration to a specific duration, use the ratio as a type duration proportion corresponding to the software type, and display the type duration proportion corresponding to each software type. As shown in fig. 9, the type duration ratio corresponding to each software type is shown in a pie chart manner, in which video accounts for 40%, music accounts for 16%, games accounts for 20%, office accounts for 8%, learning accounts for 4%, and social contact accounts for 12%.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain a usage duration threshold corresponding to the software type, compare the type usage duration with the usage duration threshold, where the type usage duration and the usage duration threshold correspond to the same time dimension, and when the type usage duration reaches the usage duration threshold, trigger a usage duration alarm or force the software to be turned off, so as to control the frequency and duration of software usage. For example, when the terminal is a computer of a student, when the terminal determines that the type of the game software has the use time reaching the use time threshold, the time warning information can be displayed at regular time, or the terminal can send the time warning information to parents of the student, so that the time for the student to use the computer can be reasonably distributed, and the learning efficiency of the student is improved. Aiming at learning software, the terminal can remind students of using the learning software at regular time. The time length alarm information is displayed at regular time aiming at the video software, so that the eye fatigue caused by long-time screen watching can be reduced.

The different time dimensions may respectively correspond to different use duration thresholds, for example, when the time dimension is 1 day, the use duration threshold may be 2 hours, and when the time dimension is 1 week, the use duration threshold may be 14 hours. The use duration threshold may be automatically set by the terminal, or the terminal may display a duration threshold setting interface, the duration threshold setting interface may receive a duration input or selected by a user, the terminal may obtain a duration for a specific software type in the duration threshold setting interface, and the set duration may be used as the use duration threshold of the specific software type. The particular software type may be set as desired.

In some embodiments, the terminal can display the software use duration according to the software identification. Specifically, the terminal may obtain software use durations corresponding to each piece of software, display the software use durations corresponding to each piece of software according to a descending order, and preferentially display the software use durations corresponding to the pieces of software with longer software use durations. Wherein the software identification is used to uniquely identify the software. The software identification may be, for example, the name of the software. As shown in fig. 10, an interface diagram showing the software usage duration according to the software identification is shown, and it can be seen from the diagram that the larger software usage duration is shown in front of the smaller software usage duration.

In some embodiments, the terminal can display the software use duration according to the software type. Specifically, the terminal may determine the software types corresponding to the respective software, obtain the software use durations corresponding to the respective software of the same software type, perform the summation operation on the obtained software use durations, use the result of the summation operation as the statistical use duration, and correspondingly display the software types and the corresponding statistical use durations. For example, the terminal may display the statistical use durations corresponding to the software types respectively in a descending order, and preferentially display the statistical use durations corresponding to the software types with longer statistical use durations. As shown in fig. 11, an interface diagram showing the statistical usage periods according to software types is shown, and it can be seen from the diagram that a larger statistical usage period is shown in front of a smaller statistical usage period.

In some embodiments, the terminal may further send the software use duration to the server, the server may obtain the software use duration sent by the terminal corresponding to the group user in the user group, may obtain the software use duration of each group user for the same software, perform a sum operation on each software use duration of the same software, take a result of the sum operation as the user group use duration of the software, determine the software acceptance of the software in the user group based on the user group use duration, and the user group use duration and the software acceptance have a positive correlation. The user group is a group consisting of a plurality of users, and the plurality refers to at least three users, for example, one team can be used as one user group. The group user refers to a user included in the user group. The user terminal corresponding to the user in the user group can obtain the software use duration corresponding to each piece of software from the server.

Wherein, the positive correlation relationship means that: under the condition that other conditions are not changed, the changing directions of the two variables are the same, and when one variable changes from large to small, the other variable also changes from large to small. It is understood that a positive correlation herein means that the direction of change is consistent, but does not require that when one variable changes at all, another variable must also change. For example, it may be set that the variable b is 100 when the variable a is 10 to 20, and the variable b is 120 when the variable a is 20 to 30. Thus, the changing directions of a and b are that when a is larger, b is also larger. But b may be unchanged in the range of 10 to 20 a.

In the software use management method, the software use detection strategy set comprises a window detection strategy and a resource occupation detection strategy, a window which is concerned by a user can be detected from the window display angle based on the window detection strategy, and a window which occupies a playing resource can be detected based on the resource occupation detection strategy, so that the software which is concerned by the user can be detected from different angles, a first software identifier corresponding to a first execution unit identifier and a second software identifier corresponding to a second execution unit identifier are obtained, and a current software identifier set is obtained by combining the software identifiers obtained by various strategies, so that a plurality of pieces of software used in the same time period can be detected, the software use time lengths of the plurality of pieces of software used in the same time period are counted, the accuracy of counting the software use time lengths is improved, and the accuracy of managing the software is further improved.

In some embodiments, determining the current software window of interest to the user from the current set of presentation windows based on the window detection policy comprises: acquiring window display positions of all current display windows in a current display window set displayed in a screen; determining the display degree corresponding to each current display window based on the window display position; and screening software windows meeting the user attention condition from the current display window set based on the display degree corresponding to the current display window, wherein the software windows are used as the current software windows concerned by the user, and the user attention condition comprises at least one of the display degree being greater than a degree threshold value or the display degree being sorted before a sorting threshold value.

The window display position refers to the position occupied by the window in the screen. The terminal can determine the window screen area according to the window display position. The window screen area refers to the area occupied by the currently displayed window in the screen. The display degree is used for reflecting the proportion of the visible area in the window in the whole window, and the larger the display degree is, the larger the proportion of the visible area in the whole window is. When the display degree is 100%, it means that the entire window is visible. The visible region refers to a region in the window that can be seen by the user. The degree threshold may be preset, and may be 90%, for example. The specific degree of presentation may be preset, and may be 100%, for example.

The user attention condition may further include at least one of a presentation degree rank before a ranking threshold. The display degree sequence is a sequence obtained by arranging the display degrees of the current display windows in descending order, and the sequence threshold may be set as required or preset, for example, may be the third.

Specifically, the terminal may determine, based on the window screen area, a visible area corresponding to the current display window, and obtain, based on the size of the display area, a display degree corresponding to the current display window, where the display degree and the size of the display area form a positive correlation. The terminal can obtain a current display window with the display degree larger than the degree threshold value from the current display window set as a current software window, and can also obtain a current display window with the display degree of a specific display degree from the current display window set as a current software window.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain a first current presentation window from the current presentation window set, and obtain a reference presentation window corresponding to the first current presentation window from the current presentation window set, where the reference presentation window may include at least one of current presentation windows in the current presentation window set that are different from the first current presentation window, for example, all current presentation windows in the current presentation window set that are different from the first current presentation window may be used as the reference presentation window corresponding to the first current presentation window. The terminal can obtain a window screen area corresponding to a first current display window as a first window screen area, obtain a window screen area corresponding to a reference display window as a reference window screen area, obtain an overlap area between the first window screen area and the reference window screen area, use the overlap area as a screen overlap area, and determine a display area corresponding to the first current display window based on the screen overlap area. For example, the terminal may obtain the display priority corresponding to each current display window, and determine the display area based on the screen overlapping area and the display priority. When the window screen areas respectively corresponding to the two current display windows have overlapping areas, the window with higher display priority in the overlapping area shields the window with lower display priority.

In some embodiments, the terminal may determine an occlusion region corresponding to the screen region of the first window based on the screen overlap region and the display priority, and take a region outside the occlusion region in the first current display window as the display region corresponding to the first current display window. For example, the terminal may obtain a presentation priority corresponding to a first current presentation window, as a first presentation priority, obtain a presentation priority corresponding to a reference presentation window, as a reference presentation priority, compare the first presentation priority with the reference presentation priority, when it is determined that the first presentation priority is less than the reference presentation priority, take the screen overlap area as an occlusion area corresponding to the first window screen area, and take an area other than each occlusion area in the first window screen area as a presentation area corresponding to the first current presentation window.

In the embodiment, the window display position of each current display window in the current display window set displayed in the screen is obtained, and the display degree corresponding to each current display window is determined based on the window display position; and screening software windows meeting the user attention condition from the current display window set based on the display degree corresponding to the current display window, wherein the software windows are used as the current software windows concerned by the user, and the user attention condition comprises at least one of the display degree being greater than a degree threshold value or the display degree being sorted before a sorting threshold value. Because the larger the display degree is, the higher the possibility of representing the window concerned by the user is, the window meeting the user concerning condition is taken as the current software window, and the accuracy of the current software window is improved.

In some embodiments, determining the display degree corresponding to each current display window based on the window display position includes: determining the display size of a display area corresponding to the current display window based on the window display position; acquiring a window size corresponding to a current display window; and determining the display degree corresponding to the current display window based on the display size and the window size.

Wherein, the display area refers to the visible area in the window. The visible area is the area in the window that can be viewed by the user. The display degree and the display size form a positive correlation relationship, and the display degree and the window size form a negative correlation relationship. The size of the display area is smaller than or equal to the window screen area. The negative correlation relationship refers to: under the condition that other conditions are not changed, the changing directions of the two variables are opposite, and when one variable is changed from large to small, the other variable is changed from small to large. It is understood that the negative correlation herein means that the direction of change is reversed, but does not require that when one variable changes a little, the other variable must also change.

Specifically, the terminal may determine, according to the window screen region, a blocking region corresponding to the window screen region, and use a region other than the blocking region in the window screen region as a display region. As shown in fig. 12, a window 5, a window 6, and a window 7 are displayed in the screen, only a part of the area of the window 5 and the window 7 is displayed in the screen, and all the area of the window 6 is displayed on the screen. The window 6 is overlapped with the window 5 and the window 7 on the screen, the window 7 shields the window 6, and the region which is not shielded in the window 6 is a display region of the window 6, namely a visible region of the window 6.

In some embodiments, the terminal may perform a ratio operation on the display size and the window size, for example, dividing the display size by the window size, and using a result of the ratio operation as a display degree corresponding to the current display window.

In some embodiments, the display size is the area of the display area, the window size is the window area, the terminal may perform a ratio operation on the area of the display area and the window area, and a result of the ratio operation is used as the display degree corresponding to the current display window.

In the embodiment, the display size of the display area corresponding to the current display window is determined based on the window display position, the window size corresponding to the current display window is obtained, and the display degree corresponding to the current display window is determined based on the display size and the window size, so that the proportion of the visible area in the window in the whole window can be accurately reflected, and the accuracy of the display degree is improved.

In some embodiments, determining the current software window of interest to the user from the current set of presentation windows based on the window detection policy comprises: acquiring a target content information sequence displayed by each current display window in a current display window set displayed in a screen; determining the content variation degree corresponding to the current display window based on the content information difference in the target content information sequence; the content variation degree and the content information difference form a positive correlation; and taking at least one of the current display windows with the content change degree larger than the change degree threshold value as a current software window concerned by the user.

The content information refers to content displayed in a window, and may be content in any form, for example, may include at least one of an image or text. The target content information refers to the content collected from the current presentation window within a target time period, which may be, for example, 50 seconds. The target content information sequence is a sequence obtained by arranging each target content information according to the acquisition time, and the more the acquisition time is, the more the target content information is ranked in the target content information sequence. The capture time refers to the time at which the content is captured from the current presentation window.

The content information difference refers to a difference between the target content information and adjacent content information of the target content information, and the adjacent content information may be target content information adjacent to the target content information in the target content information sequence, and may include at least one of the target content information adjacent to the target content information in a forward direction or the target content information adjacent to the target content information in a backward direction.

The content change degree is used for reflecting the change degree of the content in the current software window in the target time period. The greater the degree of change of the content, the greater the degree of change of the content in the current software window within the target time period. The change degree threshold may be preset or may be set as needed.

Specifically, the terminal may capture a current software window, and use the captured image as target content information corresponding to the current software window.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain, from the current presentation window set, a current presentation window whose content variation degree is greater than the variation degree threshold, as a content variation window, form each content variation window into a content variation window set, and use at least one window in the content variation window set as a current software window, for example, all content variation windows in the content variation window may be used as a current software window, or further filter the content variation window set, so as to obtain the current software window.

In this embodiment, a target content information sequence displayed by each current display window in a current display window set displayed in a screen is acquired, a content variation degree corresponding to the current display window is determined based on a content information difference in the target content information sequence, the content variation degree and the content information difference form a positive correlation, at least one of the current display windows with the content variation degree greater than a variation degree threshold is used as a current software window concerned by a user, and accuracy of the acquired window concerned by the user is improved.

In some embodiments, determining the content variation degree corresponding to the current presentation window based on the content information difference in the target content information sequence includes: acquiring target content information and adjacent content information corresponding to the target content information from the target content information sequence; obtaining the information change degree of the target content information relative to the adjacent content information according to the difference between the target content information and the adjacent content information; and carrying out statistical operation on the information change degrees corresponding to the target content information to obtain the content change degree corresponding to the current display window.

The adjacent content information refers to target content information adjacent to the target content information in the target content information sequence, and may include at least one of the target content information adjacent to the target content information in the forward direction or the target content information adjacent to the target content information in the backward direction.

Specifically, the terminal may calculate an information difference value between the target content information and the adjacent content information, and obtain an information change degree of the target content information relative to the adjacent content information based on the information difference value, where the information change degree and the information difference value have a positive correlation.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain the information change degrees corresponding to each piece of target content information, perform statistical operation on each information change degree, and use the result of the statistical operation as the content change degree corresponding to the current display window. For example, the terminal may perform a mean operation on each information change degree, and use a result of the mean operation as a content change degree corresponding to the current display window.

In some embodiments, the content information is a window image, and the window image is an image obtained by image-capturing the window. The target content information may be a target window image, the adjacent content information may be an adjacent window image, and the information difference value may be a difference between the target window image and the adjacent window image. For example, the terminal may calculate a difference between a pixel value of a pixel in the target window image and a pixel value of a pixel in the adjacent window image to obtain a pixel difference value corresponding to each pixel, perform a statistical operation, such as a sum operation, on each pixel difference value, and use a result of the operation as the information difference value.

In some embodiments, the counting the software use duration corresponding to each current software identifier in the current software identifier set, and obtaining the target use duration corresponding to the current software identifier includes: comparing the target content information in the target content information sequence with the corresponding adjacent content information to obtain a content comparison result; acquiring each target content information with inconsistent content comparison results from the target content information sequence as comparison content information; segmenting the target content information sequence to obtain a contrast content information sequence corresponding to the contrast content information; and adding the content display duration corresponding to the comparison content information sequence to the software use duration corresponding to the current software identifier to obtain the target use duration corresponding to the current software identifier.

The content comparison result may be either consistent or inconsistent in comparison. The comparison content information refers to the target content information with inconsistent comparison results in the target content information sequence. The comparison content information sequence comprises a plurality of pieces of comparison content information, and the plurality means at least two pieces of comparison content information. The comparison content information sequence is a subsequence in the target content information sequence, and there may be a plurality of comparison content information sequences. The content display duration refers to the time length corresponding to the comparison content information sequence. The content information adjacent to each other in the target content information sequence is also adjacent to each other in the comparison content information sequence. And arranging each piece of comparison content information in the comparison content information sequence according to the sequence of the comparison content information in the target content information sequence.

Specifically, the terminal may calculate a difference between the target content information and the corresponding adjacent content information to obtain a content information difference, compare the content information difference with an information difference threshold, determine that the content comparison result is consistent when the content information difference is smaller than the information difference threshold, and determine that the content comparison result is inconsistent when the content information difference is greater than the information difference threshold. The information difference threshold may be set as needed or may be preset.

In some embodiments, the terminal may segment the target content information sequence according to the position of the comparison content information in the target content information sequence to obtain each comparison content information sequence, segment adjacent comparison content information into the same comparison content information sequence during segmentation, and arrange the comparison content information in the comparison content information sequence according to the ordering of the comparison content information in the target content information sequence. For example, the target content information sequence is (S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, S9, S10), and if the content comparison results of S5, S6, and S7 are all the same, the comparison content information sequence may include two sequences of (S1, S2, S3, S4) and (S8, S9, S10).

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain the initial comparison content information and the termination comparison content information from the comparison content information sequence, obtain the acquisition time corresponding to the initial comparison content information as the initial time, obtain the acquisition time corresponding to the termination comparison content information as the termination time, and use the time interval between the initial time and the termination time as the content display duration corresponding to the comparison content information sequence. The initial contrast content information refers to the contrast content information ordered at the head in the contrast content information sequence, and the termination contrast content information refers to the contrast content information ordered at the tail in the contrast content information sequence.

In this embodiment, target content information in a target content information sequence is compared with corresponding adjacent content information to obtain a content comparison result, the content comparison result is obtained from the target content information sequence and is each piece of target content information with inconsistent comparison as comparison content information, a comparison content information sequence corresponding to the comparison content information is obtained by segmenting from the target content information sequence, content display duration corresponding to the comparison content information sequence is increased on software use duration corresponding to a current software identifier to obtain target use duration corresponding to the current software identifier, and since the content comparison result is inconsistent, it is indicated that adjacent content information changes, when the content changes, it is highly possible that a user pays attention to the content, for example, when the content is a video, when the video is played, it is highly possible that the duration when the content information changes is counted into the use duration of the software, a situation that the duration when the content does not change is counted into the use duration of the software is reduced, and accuracy of counting the use duration of the software is improved.

In some embodiments, the step of taking at least one of the currently presented windows having a content variation degree greater than the variation degree threshold as the current software window concerned by the user comprises: acquiring a current display window with the content change degree larger than a change degree threshold value as a content change window; determining a content change area corresponding to the content change window; and when the shielding degree of the content change area is smaller than the shielding threshold value, taking the content change window as the current software window concerned by the user.

The content change area refers to an area in the content change window where the content changes with time. The occlusion degree is used for reflecting the proportion of the visible area in the content change area in the whole content change area, and the proportion of the visible area in the content change area in the whole content change area is smaller when the occlusion degree is larger. The occlusion threshold may be set as needed or may be preset, for example, 10%.

Specifically, the terminal may obtain a visible area in the content change area as the visible change area, obtain an area of the visible change area as the first area, obtain an area of the content change area as the second area, perform a ratio operation on the first area and the second area, use a result of the operation as a visible degree corresponding to the content change area, determine the occlusion degree based on the visible degree, where the visible degree and the occlusion degree have a negative correlation relationship, and a sum of the visible degree and the occlusion degree is 100%. For example, when the visibility is 80%, the blocking degree is 20%.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain a visibility threshold, compare the visibility of the content change area with the visibility threshold, and when the visibility is greater than the visibility threshold, take the content change window as the current software window concerned by the user. The visible threshold may be preset, for example, 90%, or may be set as needed.

In some embodiments, when the content change area is in a visible state, that is, when the occlusion degree of the content change area is 0%, the terminal may use the content change window as the current software window focused by the user.

In this embodiment, a current display window with a content change degree greater than a change degree threshold is obtained and used as a content change window, a content change area corresponding to the content change window is determined, when the shielding degree of the content change area is smaller than a shielding threshold, the content change window is used as a current software window concerned by a user, since a video may be played in the changed area, when a window where the area where the video is played is not a window located at the topmost end of a screen, and is not a completely displayed window, if the changed area is visible, that is, is not shielded, the user may watch the video, and thus when the shielding degree of the content change area is smaller than the shielding threshold, the content change window is used as the current software window concerned by the user, and the detection accuracy of the window concerned by the user is improved.

In some embodiments, taking at least one of the currently presented windows having a degree of content change greater than a degree of change threshold as the current software window of interest to the user comprises: determining a current display window with the content change degree larger than a change degree threshold value as a content change window; determining the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window; and when the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window is smaller than the repetition degree threshold value, taking the content change window as the current software window concerned by the user.

Wherein the content repetition degree is used for reflecting the proportion of repeated contents included in the changed contents in the content change window. The threshold of the repetition degree may be set as needed or may be set in advance. The content duplication degree may be represented by a number, for example, a screenshot of the content change window may be performed in a specific time period to obtain a plurality of images, and the number of images that are repeatedly appeared may be counted from the plurality of images, and the number may be used as the content duplication degree.

Specifically, the terminal may perform content acquisition on the content change window in a first time period, arrange the acquired content information according to acquisition time to obtain a first content information sequence, perform content acquisition on the content change window in a second time period, and arrange the acquired content information according to acquisition time to obtain a second content information sequence. The duration of the first time period and the second time period may be the same, for example, may be 50 seconds each. The first time period and the second time period may be adjacent time periods, for example, the first time period is the first 30 seconds of 1 minute, and the second time period is the last 30 seconds of the 1 minute. The terminal may determine the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window based on the first content information sequence and the second content information sequence, for example, the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window may be determined based on a difference or a correlation between the first content information sequence and the second content information sequence. The total period of time made up of the first period of time and the second period of time includes the target period of time.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain a current presentation window with a content change degree greater than a change degree threshold as a content change window, determine a content change area corresponding to the content change window, determine an occlusion degree corresponding to the content change area, use the content change window with the occlusion degree less than the occlusion threshold as a candidate software window, obtain a content repetition degree corresponding to the candidate software window, and use the content change window as a current software window concerned by the user when the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window is less than the repetition degree threshold.

In this embodiment, because the advertisement has the characteristic of repeated playing, the current display window with the content change degree greater than the change degree threshold is determined and used as the content change window, the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window is determined, and when the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window is less than the repetition degree threshold, the content change window is used as the current software window concerned by the user, so that the situation that the window where the advertisement is located is determined as the window concerned by the user can be reduced, and the detection accuracy of the window concerned by the user is improved.

In some embodiments, determining the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window comprises: determining a first content information sequence corresponding to the content change window and a second content information sequence adjacent to the first content information sequence; extracting the content information of the first content information sequence according to a content extraction strategy, and arranging the extracted first content information to obtain a first comparison information sequence;

the time of acquiring each content information in the first content information sequence and the time of acquiring each content information in the second content information sequence may be adjacent.

The content extraction policy is a policy for extracting content information from the content information sequence, and may include at least one of an extraction time interval and an extraction frequency, and the extraction time interval and the extraction frequency may be set as needed or may be set in advance. The way in which the first content information sequence is extracted corresponds to the way in which the second content information sequence is extracted. The first content information refers to content information in a first sequence of content information. The second content information refers to content information in the second content information sequence.

The first comparison information sequence is a sequence in which the first content information extracted from the first content information sequence is arranged according to the acquisition time. The second comparison information sequence is a sequence in which the second content information extracted from the second content information sequence is arranged according to the acquisition time.

The sequence correlation is used to reflect the correlation between the first comparison information sequence and the second comparison information sequence, and the greater the sequence correlation, the greater the correlation between the first comparison information sequence and the second comparison information sequence. The sequence correlation degree and the content repetition degree are in positive correlation. For example, the terminal may use the sequence correlation as the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window.

Specifically, the terminal may perform content acquisition on the content change window in a first time period, arrange the acquired content information according to acquisition time to obtain a first content information sequence, perform content acquisition on the content change window in a second time period, and arrange the acquired content information according to acquisition time to obtain a second content information sequence. The duration of the first time period and the second time period may be the same, for example, may be 50 seconds each. The first time period and the second time period may be adjacent time periods, for example, the first time period is the first 30 seconds of 1 minute, and the second time period is the last 30 seconds of the 1 minute.

In some embodiments, the number of first content information included in the first sequence of content information is the same as the number of second content information included in the second sequence of content information, and the number of first comparison information included in the first sequence of comparison information is the same as the number of second comparison information included in the second sequence of comparison information, since the strategy of extracting the first sequence of content information is the same as the strategy of extracting the second sequence of content information. The first comparison information refers to content information included in the first comparison information sequence, and the second comparison information refers to content information included in the second comparison information sequence. For example, the terminal may obtain first comparison information sorted into a first order from the first comparison information sequence, obtain second comparison information sorted into the first order from the second comparison information sequence, and combine the first comparison information sorted into the first order and the second comparison information sorted into the first order into a comparison information pair corresponding to the first order. The first ordering may be any ordering in the comparison information sequences. The information comparison result can be any one of consistent comparison or inconsistent comparison. The terminal may count the number of comparison information pairs whose comparison results are consistent in comparison, take the number as the consistent number of information pairs, count the total number of comparison information pairs, take the number as the total number of information pairs, perform a ratio operation on the consistent number of information pairs and the total number of information pairs, and take the result of the ratio operation as the sequence correlation between the first comparison information sequence and the second comparison information sequence.

In this embodiment, a first content information sequence corresponding to a content change window and a second content information sequence adjacent to the first content information sequence are determined, content information extraction is performed on the first content information sequence according to a content extraction policy, the extracted first content information is arranged to obtain a first comparison information sequence, content information extraction is performed on the second content information sequence according to the content extraction policy, the extracted second content information is arranged to obtain a second comparison information sequence, a sequence correlation between the first comparison information sequence and the second comparison information sequence is obtained, content repetition corresponding to the content change window is determined based on the sequence correlation, and since the sequence correlation and the content repetition are in a positive correlation, the content repetition becomes higher when the sequence correlation is larger, and the accuracy of the content repetition is improved.

In some embodiments, the counting the software use duration corresponding to each current software identifier in the current software identifier set, and obtaining the target use duration corresponding to the current software identifier includes: acquiring a forward software identification set corresponding to a current software identification set; comparing the software identification in the forward software identification set with the software identification in the current software identification set, and taking the software identification which is consistent in comparison as a target software identification; adding a target duration to the software use duration corresponding to the target software identification to obtain a target use duration corresponding to the target software identification; the target duration is the time interval between the forward detection time and the current detection time, the forward detection time is the detection time corresponding to the forward software identifier set, and the current detection time is the detection time corresponding to the current software identifier set.

Wherein, the terminal can periodically trigger the software to use the detection instruction. The detection period may be set as needed or may be preset, for example, 1 minute. The current detection time may be a current detection period, and the forward detection time may be a previous detection period corresponding to the current detection period. The current software identification set is the set obtained at the current detection time, and the forward software identification set is the set obtained in the forward detection time. The method for obtaining the forward software identification set in the forward detection time is the same as the method for obtaining the current software identification set in the current detection time.

Specifically, the terminal may obtain the software use duration of the target software identifier stored at the current time, where 1 day is taken as an example, the current time is 12 o 'clock in 1 day, and when 12 o' clock, the software use duration corresponding to the software a is 1 hour. The terminal can perform summation operation on the stored software use duration and the target duration, the result of the summation operation is used as the summation duration, and the stored software use duration is updated by using the summation duration. The target usage duration refers to a software usage duration in a statistical period, which may be at least one of a day, a week, a month, or a year, for example. For example, when the software usage duration corresponding to the target software identifier in 1 week needs to be counted, that is, the counting period is 1 week, the target usage duration is the duration of the target software used by the user in 1 week, and the target software is the software corresponding to the target software identifier.

In this embodiment, a forward software identifier set corresponding to a current software identifier set is obtained, software identifiers in the forward software identifier set are compared with software identifiers in the current software identifier set, the software identifiers which are consistent in comparison are used as target software identifiers, a target use duration corresponding to the target software identifiers is obtained by adding the target use duration to the software use duration corresponding to the target software identifiers, so that the duration is added to software which is concerned by a user in two adjacent detection times, the condition that the time for switching windows of the user is used as the time for the user to pay attention to the windows is reduced, and the accuracy for counting the software use durations is improved.

In some embodiments, the method further comprises: acquiring an object task corresponding to a target object, and acquiring target use duration corresponding to task related software related to the object task; and when the target use time corresponding to the task related software is less than the task completion time threshold of the object task, outputting the task prompt information of the object task.

The target object may be a user corresponding to the terminal. The object task refers to a task to be completed by the target object, for example, when the target object is a student, the object task may be a homework, for example, a homework arranged by a teacher. The object task may be a task that is actively made by the user, or may be a task that is specified by an object related to the target object for the target object, for example, when the target object is a student, the object task may be a task that is made by a parent for the student, or may be a task that is made by a teacher for the student.

Task related software refers to software that is needed to complete a subject task, such as when a subject task teacher or parent creates a homework on student learning software, the task related software learns the software for the student.

The task completion time length threshold may be set according to an operation of a user, may be determined according to difficulty of the target task, or may be a time length threshold extracted from task information of the target task, for example, if the task information includes 20 minutes of viewing the video a, 20 minutes may be used as the task completion time length threshold.

The task prompt information may include at least one of an object task identifier or a software identifier, and the object task identifier is used to uniquely identify the object task. The task prompt message may also include a task completion degree or an incomplete task degree, for example, the task prompt message may be "job B in software S is completed by 80%, or 20% is not completed, please complete as soon as possible".

Specifically, the terminal may obtain an object task corresponding to the target object and task information corresponding to the object task from the task related software, obtain a task completion time threshold from the task information, and output task prompt information of the object task when the target usage time corresponding to the task related software is less than the task completion time threshold of the object task.

In this embodiment, when the target use duration corresponding to the task related software is less than the task completion duration threshold of the target task, the task prompt information of the target task is output, so that the user can be timely reminded of completing the task, and the task completion efficiency is improved.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain a usage duration threshold corresponding to the current software identifier, compare the target usage duration corresponding to the current software identifier with the usage duration threshold, generate timeout indication information corresponding to the current software identifier when the target usage duration reaches the usage duration threshold, and display the timeout indication information.

The usage duration threshold may be preset or set as needed. The timeout indication information may include a software identifier, and the timeout indication information may be, for example, "the duration of using the game software R has reached 2 hours today".

In the embodiment, when the target use duration reaches the use duration threshold, the overtime prompt information is displayed, so that the situation that the user is addicted in software and forgets to use the software can be reduced, and the user is assisted in reasonably using the software.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 14A, there is provided a software usage management method including the steps of:

step S1402, responding to the software use detection instruction, acquiring a software use detection strategy set, wherein the software use detection strategy set comprises a window detection strategy and a resource occupation detection strategy; the window detection strategy comprises window focus detection, window area proportion detection and image rendering frequency detection; the resource occupation detection strategy comprises channel occupation detection;

as shown in fig. 14B, software for detecting the use duration of the software may be installed in the terminal, and the running software (detection service running) refers to running the software for detecting the use duration of the software. The software for detecting the software use duration is recorded as duration detection software, and the duration detection software can utilize window focus detection, window area ratio detection, image rendering frequency detection and sound channel occupation detection to detect in response to a software use detection instruction, so as to determine process path information corresponding to a process needing duration statistics. When detecting by using window focus detection, window area ratio detection, image rendering frequency detection and channel occupation detection, the 4 detection methods can be used for detection at the same time, or the 4 detection methods can be used for detection in sequence, and the detection sequence of the 4 detection methods is not limited in the application.

Wherein the window focus detection is used to determine a focus window from a plurality of windows. The focus window refers to a window that is presented at the top of the screen and in a fully presented state, i.e., the entire window can be used for viewing.

Step S1404A, acquiring a current display window set, and performing focus window detection on the current display window set by using a window focus detection strategy;

step S1404C, determining whether a focus window exists in the current presentation window set, if so, executing step S1404E, and if not, executing step S1404D;

step S1404E, taking a focus window in the current display window set as a current software window concerned by the user;

the current display window set comprises a plurality of current display windows, the terminal can correspond to one or more screens, and the terminal can acquire the windows displayed in at least one screen of the screens to form the current display window set. For example, when the user computer has multiple screens and each screen has a window that is completely displayed, the terminal may determine on which screen the user's last action falls, e.g., the user's last mouse operation, the last keyboard input operation, etc., and group the windows in the screen on which the user's last action falls into the current set of displayed windows.

Step S1404B, performing sound channel occupation detection by using a sound channel occupation detection strategy to obtain a current sound channel occupation process, and acquiring an identifier corresponding to the process as a second execution unit identifier;

there is a scene in which although the window is completely blocked, there is sound playing, such as a music player, a small-sized book, a talking book, etc. In this case the user's attention may be to these sounds even though the window is at the forefront, and the user is not paying attention to the forefront software. At this time, the terminal can acquire the software playing the sound currently by acquiring the using process of the sound driver, and count the duration.

Of course, if the user has an action on the front-most software, such as mouse scrolling, keyboard entry, microphone entry, etc. At this time, the usage statistics of foreground software should not be ignored, and the window statistics with operations have the highest priority. The software occupied by the background sound channel and the software operated by the background sound channel can be subjected to duration statistics at the same time.

Step S1404D, utilizing window area proportion detection to carry out shielding detection on the current display window set;

and step S1404F, determining whether each current display window in the current display window set is in a complete display state, if so, executing step S1404G, and if not, executing step S1404H.

Step S1404G, taking each current display window in the current display window set as a current software window concerned by the user;

wherein, that all the areas of the current presentation window are in a visible state means that all the areas of the current presentation window can be observed by the user. In view of the fact that the screen size used by the user is becoming larger and larger, and even in the case where the user uses a plurality of screens, the use of window area proportion detection makes it possible to detect software that the user is focusing on, which cannot be detected by the window focus detection method.

Step S1404H, obtaining window display positions of all current display windows in the current display window set, determining display degrees corresponding to all current display windows based on the window display positions, and obtaining the current display window with the maximum display degree from the current display window set to serve as a current software window concerned by a user;

specifically, the terminal may determine a display size of a display area corresponding to the current display window based on the window display position, obtain a window size corresponding to the current display window, and determine a display degree corresponding to the current display window based on the display size and the window size.

Step S1404I, based on image rendering frequency detection, acquiring a target content information sequence displayed by each current display window except the current display window with the maximum display degree in a current display window set, determining a content variation degree corresponding to the current display window based on content information difference in the target content information sequence, and taking the current display window with the content variation degree larger than a variation degree threshold value as a content variation window;

the terminal can acquire target content information and adjacent content information corresponding to the target content information from the target content information sequence, obtain information change degrees of the target content information relative to the adjacent content information according to the difference between the target content information and the adjacent content information, and perform statistical operation on the information change degrees corresponding to the target content information to obtain the content change degree corresponding to the current display window.

For a window of a video playing or window mode game, the terminal can comprehensively judge whether the attention of the user is on the window by detecting the frequency of the picture change rendered by the window and combining the displayed window duty ratio. For example, the terminal can perform timed screenshot on the window, judge the difference between the current frame and the previous frame, judge the frequency of the change of the picture in a short time, and count the duration of the software for the window with higher change frequency and the changed part which is not blocked by other windows.

Of course, for some tile advertisements present on a web page, the detection method may also be hit. At this time, the terminal can judge whether repeated images appear for a plurality of times in a short time, if so, the terminal can determine that the image rendering change is probably the patch advertisement of the webpage and ignore the image rendering change.

Step S1404J, determining a content change area corresponding to the content change window, acquiring the shielding degree of the content change area, and taking the content change window with the shielding degree smaller than the shielding threshold value as a candidate display window;

and step S1404K, determining the content repetition degree corresponding to the candidate display window, and taking the candidate display window with the content repetition degree smaller than the repetition degree threshold value as the current software window concerned by the user.

The terminal can determine a first content information sequence corresponding to the content change window and a second content information sequence adjacent to the first content information sequence; extracting the content information of the first content information sequence according to a content extraction strategy, and arranging the extracted first content information to obtain a first comparison information sequence; extracting the content information of the second content information sequence according to a content extraction strategy, and arranging the second content information obtained by extraction to obtain a second comparison information sequence; and obtaining the sequence correlation degree between the first comparison information sequence and the second comparison information sequence, determining the content repetition degree corresponding to the content change window based on the sequence correlation degree, wherein the sequence correlation degree and the content repetition degree form a positive correlation relationship.

When the content repetition degree is less than the repetition degree threshold, the terminal may determine that a video is being played or a game is being played, and when the content repetition degree is greater than the repetition degree threshold, the terminal may determine the content change area as an area where an advertisement is located, that is, the changed content is an advertisement. As shown in fig. 13, the terminal captures the images in the window, compares the difference between the images, and when it is determined that the number of changes of the images in a short time is greater than the number threshold, the number threshold may be set as needed, for example, 5 times, the number of changes may reflect the degree of change of the content, the number of changes and the degree of change of the content have a positive correlation, when the number of changes is greater than the number threshold, the terminal determines whether there is a loop image, the loop image is an image that appears in a loop, when there is, it is determined that the changed content is a welt advertisement or gif, and when there is no loop image, it is determined that the changed content is a played video or game.

Step S1406, obtaining a first execution unit identifier corresponding to the current software window, obtaining a first software identifier corresponding to the first execution unit identifier, and obtaining a second software identifier corresponding to the second execution unit identifier;

as shown in fig. 14B, the execution unit identifier may be, for example, process path information, and when the terminal acquires the process path information, the software name corresponding to the process path information may be determined, and as shown in fig. 14B, the software name corresponding to the process path information may be determined by using at least one of four methods, namely "file attribute", "registry", "shortcut", and "manual operation". The software identification may be, for example, a software name. As shown in fig. 15, "file attribute" refers to obtaining a file description or a product name, "registry" refers to obtaining a Uninstall registry entry, "shortcut" refers to obtaining an installation path according to the shortcut, and performing matching of the installation path, "manual operation" corresponds to "user mark or manual operation" in fig. 15.

Step S1408, determining a current software identification set by combining the first software identification and the second software identification;

step 1410, counting the software service time length corresponding to each current software identifier in the current software identifier set to obtain the target service time length corresponding to the current software identifier.

The terminal can compare target content information in the target content information sequence with corresponding adjacent content information to obtain a content comparison result, obtain each piece of target content information with inconsistent comparison as comparison content information from the target content information sequence, segment the target content information sequence to obtain a comparison content information sequence corresponding to the comparison content information, and increase content display duration corresponding to the comparison content information sequence on software use duration corresponding to the current software identification to obtain target use duration corresponding to the current software identification.

In some embodiments, the terminal may obtain a forward software identifier set corresponding to a current software identifier set, compare software identifiers in the forward software identifier set with software identifiers in the current software identifier set, regard software identifiers in accordance with the comparison as target software identifiers, and add a target duration to a software usage duration corresponding to the target software identifiers to obtain a target usage duration corresponding to the target software identifiers; the target duration is the time interval between the forward detection time and the current detection time, the forward detection time is the detection time corresponding to the forward software identifier set, and the current detection time is the detection time corresponding to the current software identifier set.

And step S1412, displaying the target use duration.

The terminal can display the target use duration according to the software name or the software type. The user can view the ranking, the occupation ratio and the like of the software duration in a certain period of time on a certain day. The terminal can also carry out statistics on the time length ratio of the dimensionalities of office, games, videos, social contact, learning and the like according to software classification. Therefore, the user can clearly master the proportion of time in the process of using the computer, thereby controlling the frequency and the time length of using certain software.

And S1414, performing software management based on the target use duration.

As shown in fig. 16, software management based on the usage duration of the software may be performed in a "family scene", a "fatigue control scene", and a "team management scene", and of course, software may also be performed in other scenes, where the type of the scene is not limited. In a family scene, the using time of entertainment software can be controlled, students can be reminded of using learning software at regular time, and parents can be warned when the using time of the entertainment software exceeds the specified time. In the fatigue control scene, the alarm can be given when the use time of the video software exceeds the set time, and the alarm can be given when the use time is once started. For example, parents may want to control the game of children and the duration of the video, provide alarms and restrictions on the duration of the video and game type software, and parents may know the software usage of children by using mobile phones APP (Application), applets or web pages, etc., to reduce eye fatigue caused by watching the screen for a long time. The time of using the computer is reasonably distributed, the efficiency is improved, the addiction is prevented, the reminding with the overlong use time length can be popped out at regular time, the terminal can provide a more reasonable time threshold value, and the user can also define the time.

The software use management method can realize a software screen use duration management scheme for a Windows system, and comprehensively judges the use condition of software of the Windows system in a multi-dimensional way through technologies such as focus capture, software window visual area detection (namely window area ratio detection), sound channel, image rendering change and the like, so that the use duration of each software is counted better, the use condition of each software is analyzed, and a more personalized software use suggestion is output to assist a user to perform time management more efficiently, and the method can be applied to scenes of family and team management. The software duration of the user on the windows computer can be accurately counted and displayed in a chart mode, the user can conveniently check the duration distribution of the software used by the user through dimensions such as software, classification and the like, the user can conveniently backtrack, manage and control the time of the user, and therefore the use efficiency is improved. The software using duration of the user can be counted in a third-party software mode, and the charted data is finally presented, so that the software using duration is controlled. The method comprehensively covers the software use scene of the windows system through the four schemes of software window focus capture, software window visual area detection, software detection of the currently occupied sound channel and window image rendering detection, so that an accurate user computer use time scene is obtained. In the software use management method provided by the application, in order to process error data, a window switched out within 5s is not counted, a system process is not counted, and software under a windows catalog of a system disk is mainly excluded. Therefore, the use data of the software concerned by the user can be counted more accurately.

It should be understood that although the various steps in the flow diagrams of fig. 2-16 are shown in order as indicated by the arrows, the steps are not necessarily performed in order as indicated by the arrows. The steps are not limited to being performed in the exact order illustrated and, unless explicitly stated herein, may be performed in other orders. Moreover, at least some of the steps in fig. 2-16 may include multiple steps or multiple stages, which are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, which are not necessarily performed in sequence, but may be performed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least some of the other steps.
