Specific embodiments of methods and apparatus for notification optimization are described below.

As used herein, notifications may refer to all notifications displayed in the notification area for user-related activities, including, by way of example, a business utilizing a shopping platform on server 150. may include notifications for marketing messages that the company intends to communicate to users who are its customers. The server 150 can provide a notification service that allows the user to collectively check all notifications to the user without having to individually access various services provided by the server 150.

The computing device 200 according to the present embodiment may provide a notification platform for a client through a dedicated application installed on the client or a connection to a web/mobile site associated with the computing device 200. Computing device 200 may be configured with a computer-implemented notification optimization system. For example, the notification optimization system may be implemented in the form of a program that operates independently, or may be configured in the form of an in-app of a specific application and can operate on the specific application. It may be realized as follows.

The processor 220 of the computing device 200 may be implemented by components for performing the following notification optimization method. Depending on the embodiment, components of processor 220 may be selectively included or excluded from processor 220. Also, depending on the embodiment, components of processor 220 may be separated or combined to express the functionality of processor 220.

Such processor 220 and components of processor 220 may control computing device 200 to perform the steps included in the notification optimization method below. For example, processor 220 and components of processor 220 may be implemented to execute instructions from operating system code and at least one program code that memory 210 contains.

Here, the components of processor 220 may be representations of different functions performed by processor 220 according to instructions provided by program code recorded on computer device 200.

The steps included in the notification optimization method described below may be performed in a different order than shown in the figures, and some steps may be omitted or additional steps may be included. It's okay.

Although the steps included in the notification optimization method may be performed on the server 150, in some embodiments at least some of the steps may be performed on the client.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a notification optimization method that may be performed by a computing device in an embodiment of the invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, in step 310, the processor 220 may assign a notification ID as a unique code for identifying the type of notification, and may register the notification ID for each type of notification. The processor 220 may specify a notification ID indicating a unique code for identifying the type of notification, a service name and description of the type of notification, and the like. In other words, processor 220 may register and manage notifications based on notification IDs.

In step 320, the processor 220 may set a notification grade and a notification shape to the notification ID considering the importance of the notification. Here, the notification grade refers to a grade set according to the importance of a notification, and the importance of a notification may be classified into a plurality of grades. As an example, the highest grade may correspond to a notification at a level that the user is absolutely required to recognize, and may correspond to a notification that will cause damage if the user does not perform the task after receiving the notification. On the other hand, the lowest grade is a notification that does not disturb the user, and may correspond to a notification that simply records details related to user activities without push or badge counting. In this embodiment, the notification grade is matched in advance, such as the shape of the notification display method and type (hereinafter referred to as "notification shape"), as an element for defining the importance of the notification in the notification ID. It's fine. At this time, notification shapes may be broadly divided into badge notifications, push notifications, and main notifications based on the position where the notification is displayed, and in the case of badge notification shapes, they are divided into important notifications and general notifications. good. The notification shape will be explained in more detail below. In the case of notification grades, the intensity of transmitting the notification (hereinafter referred to as "notification intensity") may be applied differently depending on the notification grade. As an example, notification grades may be classified according to the strength of push notifications, and may include grades that include one or more push elements for making notification reception known, as well as grades that do not have push notifications. The processor 220 may manage notifications using notification IDs, but at this time, the processor 220 may manage the notifications by associating the notification grade and notification shape based on the importance of the notification with the notification ID. The more important the notification is, the stronger the notification shape and notification grade may be assigned. Among the types of notifications, for notifications whose importance can be determined directly by the service, the notification grade and notification shape are fixed, and for notifications whose importance cannot be determined by the service, such as content recommendation notifications, the importance is determined by the artificial intelligence platform. The importance of a notification may be predicted using a prediction model, and the notification grade and notification shape may be automatically set in accordance with the prediction result. An artificial intelligence learning dataset may be constructed based on the notifications communicated to each user and the user activity history for the notifications, and the notification grade and notification shape of each user may be determined by the prediction model trained on the dataset. good. In the case of some types of notifications, different notification grades and notification shapes may be specified for each user even for the same notification.

In step 330, when the processor 220 receives a notification sending request including the notification ID, the processor 220 may send the notification according to the notification grade and notification shape set in the notification ID. The information to be conveyed by the notification (e.g., content such as text, images, videos, coupons, links, etc.) (i.e., the content of the notification) and the notification ID applicable to the type of notification may be conveyed to the notification platform, but this At this time, the notification may be sent by applying the notification grade and notification shape set to the notification ID on the notification platform. In other words, when a notification sending request using a notification ID according to the type of notification is received for a specific notification, the processor 220 determines the notification grade and notification shape set for the ID based on the notification ID. The notification may be sent based on the relevant notification grade and notification shape. The processor 220 may set the notification shape and notification grade to the notification ID as notification optimization based on the notification ID, and may send the notification with the notification shape and notification grade (notification strength) set to the notification ID. good. If the notification shape is an important notification, the processor 220 may pre-register the title text of the notification, and if the notification shape matched with the notification ID is an important notification, the processor 220 may provide the title text of the notification. good. The title text is used when setting an important notification, and the title element of the important notification may be specified for each type of notification, and the title element of the type corresponding to the notification ID may be displayed.

Therefore, the processor 220 can assign a unique notification ID to the notification to be transmitted to the user and manage the notification based on the notification ID. In particular, the processor 220 may manage the notification shape by matching it with a grade divided by notification strength in order to indicate how important the notification is in the notification ID. By managing the notification ID in association with the notification grade/notification shape based on the importance of the notification, the processor 220 can provide a notification with an optimized shape and strength based on the notification grade.

FIG. 4 is an exemplary diagram for explaining the process of registering a notification ID in an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, in the process of registering a notification on the notification registration screen 400, the processor 220 may register notification detailed information such as notification text, shipping target, shipping conditions, and the notification to identify the type of notification. The ID 401 and notification type name 402 may be specified. The notification detailed information may be registered by a notification administrator, or may be directly registered by a business operator who intends to utilize the notification as a marketing means. The notification ID 401 and the notification type name 402 may be directly input by the business operator or the notification manager, or may be automatically generated based on the notification detailed information.

Therefore, in the process of registering a notification, the processor 220 can assign a notification ID 401 for identifying the type of notification to each notification, and manage the notifications based on the notification ID 401.

The processor 220 may set the notification grade 403 and the notification shape 404 in the notification ID 401 according to the settings of the notification administrator.

The processor 220 may manage the notification ID 401, the notification grade 403, and the notification shape 404 in association with each other. The notification grade 403 is a grade indicating the importance of a notification, and is obtained by classifying the importance of the notification into a plurality of grades. The more important the notification is, the higher the grade may be assigned.

The notification registration screen 400 may include, for each notification ID 401, an interface 410 for modifying the notification grade 403 and notification shape 404 set in the notification ID 401.

FIG. 5 is an exemplary diagram illustrating a process of setting a notification environment for each notification grade according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, the notification grade 403 is a classification of the importance of notifications into a plurality of grades, and for example, the importance of notifications may be divided into six grades. It should not be limited to six grades, and the number of grades of notifications may be added or decreased.

The 1st grade, which is the highest grade among the notification grades 403, is a notification that must be made absolutely known to the user, and corresponds to a notification that will cause damage if the user does not carry out the task after receiving the notification. (e.g., receiving gifts, receiving money, etc.) Class 2 is a notification that requires a user action after confirmation or causes damage if the notification is not confirmed; for example, it may be related to money, and if the notification is read, This may include notifications of useful transactions/announcements (e.g., reservation date information, etc.), activity notifications containing direct feedback on user activities (e.g., comments, replies, etc.), and the like. The third grade is notifications that are not important but require timely guidance, and may include, for example, shopping mall information, group participation approval, and the like. The fourth grade is a notification that requires push sending and may correspond to a notification that has the same content as the result expected by the user (for example, completion of automatic deposit registration, etc.). Grade 5 is for notifications that do not require push dispatch, such as notifications that accumulate on the notification page without being pushed, notifications that have recently completed an action, and notifications for user activities that do not require active notification (e.g. (Purchase confirmation completed, etc.) The lowest level, 6th grade, is a level of notification that does not disturb the user, there is no push or badge count, and the notifications are simply accumulated on the notification page, and the details related to user activity are simply recorded. This may correspond to notifications for purposes such as point accumulation, etc.

The processor 220 may set a notification environment 501 that matches each notification grade 403 on the notification grade management screen 500. The notification environment 501 may include settings such as ignore badge notification settings, ignore push notification settings, push notification importance, exclude badge count, and block push notification sending. , an interface 510 for modifying the notification environment 501 set to the notification grade 403, and the like.

Referring to FIG. 6, notification intensity 601 may be matched as one of notification environments 501 for each notification grade 403.

Notification shapes 404 such as badge notifications, push notifications, main notifications, and important notifications are not fixedly matched with the notification grade 403, and may be selectively set in the notification ID 401 depending on the type of notification.

The notification shape may be roughly divided into three shapes, for example, a badge notification 410, a push notification 420, and a main notification 430, as shown in FIG. 4, based on the position where the notification is displayed.

Referring to FIG. 7, the badge notification 410 is a notification area for checking all notifications for the user in one place, and is a dedicated page (hereinafter referred to as "notification page") for the notification service provided by the server 150. ) 700.

The badge notification 410 has an important notification shape displayed in a card type in the upper end area 710 of the notification page 700, and a list type in the remaining lower end area other than the upper end area 710 (hereinafter referred to as "more notification area") 720. It may be divided into general notification shapes displayed in .

Of the badge notifications 410, the processor 220 displays the notification corresponding to the notification ID 401 specified as the important notification shape in the upper end area 710 of the notification page 700, while displaying the notification corresponding to the notification ID 401 specified as the general notification shape. may be displayed in the bottom list, which is the view more notifications area 720 of the notification page 700.

Referring to FIG. 8, a push notification 420 refers to a notification shape displayed on a device screen 800 of a user terminal (eg, electronic device 110, etc.) that receives notifications by push method.

In the case of a notification ID 401 specified as a push notification 420, the processor 220 may send the notification in a push format so that the notification is displayed on the device screen 800 of the user terminal. At this time, the processor 220 may send the notification according to the push notification strength of the notification grade 403 set in the notification ID 401.

Referring to FIG. 9, the main notification 430 refers to a notification shape displayed on a main service screen including a notification service, in other words, a main page 900 of a dedicated application or dedicated web/mobile site associated with the server 150.

If the notification ID 401 is specified as the main notification 430, the processor 220 may display this notification on the main page 900. The badge notification 410, push notification 420, and main notification 430 that classify the notification shapes are merely examples and should not be limited to these, and various notification shapes may be used depending on the position where the notification is displayed. .

Referring again to FIG. 4, each notification ID 401 may be matched with a combination of at least one shape of a badge notification 410, a push notification 420, and a main notification 430, as well as a notification grade 403. The higher the grade, the more notification shapes may be matched for proactive notification, and the lower the grade, the least number of notification shapes may be matched. In the case of badge notifications 410, important notification shapes may be matched to some types of notifications, and general notification shapes may be matched as badge notifications 410 to the remaining types of notifications. For example, in the case of a gift arrival notification, it may be specified to be displayed in the important notification shape of the badge notification 410, push notification 420 and main notification 430, and in the case of a point accumulation notification, it may be specified to be displayed in the push notification 420 and main notification 430 may be specified so that only the general notification shape of the badge notifications 410 is displayed.

Push notifications 420 may be expressed with different strengths depending on the importance of the notification.

Referring again to FIG. 6, the notification grade 603 may be classified according to the strength of the push notification 420, which is one of the notification shapes, and different notification strengths 601 may be matched for each notification grade 403.

The notification strength 601 may be expressed by using push elements such as pop-up, vibration, sound, silence, etc. to make notification reception known, and may be expressed by combining two or more push elements or by combining a single push element. The notification intensity 601 may be expressed by the intensity (for example, vibration intensity, sound intensity, etc.). The notification grades 603 may include not only grades that include one or more push elements to acknowledge receipt of a notification (for example, grades 1 to 4), but also grades that do not include push notifications (for example, grades 5 to 6).

In the case of a push notification 420 with high importance, a strong notification shape may be applied that ignores notification settings of a dedicated application or dedicated web/mobile site.

When the notification ID 401 is specified as a push notification 420, the processor 220 sends the notification in a push format so that the notification is displayed on the device screen 800 of the user terminal. The notification intensity 601 for the push notification 420 may be determined by the specified notification grade 403.

In the case of the push notification 420, in addition to the push strength, a notification shape with a style that emphasizes notifications with high importance may be applied to each of the notification grades 403 by changing the push style. For example, in the case of a highly important notification, a heads-up pop-up may be applied, or an edge lighting effect may be added in which the edge panel of the device lights up at the same time as the pop-up.

As a notification management environment, the processor 220 has an environment in which the notification environment 501 is managed for each notification grade 403 (FIG. 5), and an environment in which the notification grade 403 and notification shape 404 are managed for each notification ID 401 (FIGS. 4 and 6). , an environment for managing one important notification group of the notification shapes 404, an environment for managing push notification shapes, and the like.

FIG. 10 is an exemplary diagram for explaining the process of setting up an important notification group management environment according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 10, the important notification group management screen 1000 may provide a list of types of important notifications 1010. The processor 220 specifies important notification title elements (for example, title text, text color, etc.) 1001 for each notification type included in the important notification type list 1010 on the important notification group management screen 1000. .

In addition to important notifications, the processor 220 also specifies push notification shapes (for example, push notification grouping, push notification group name, push notification group color, etc.) for each notification ID 401 for push notifications among the notification shapes 404. May provide a push group management environment for

Therefore, in this embodiment, the notification grade 403 and the notification shape 404 can be set in the notification ID 401, the notification intensity 601 can be determined based on the notification grade 403 set in the notification ID 401, and the notification intensity 601 can be determined based on the notification grade 403 set in the notification ID 401. A notification can be sent with the notification shape and notification grade (that is, notification strength) unchanged.
