The following will describe in detail how the processing unit 130 generates a related function menu menu. For the sake of convenience, the following description uses the functional menu provided by the website as an example, but the application of the disclosure is not limited thereto.

In the function menu menus provided by the current websites, most of the operation options are classified according to the types of operation options. For example, please refer to Table 1. Table 1 discloses a plurality of operation options classified according to the original classification rules. Table 1: Multiple operation options classified according to the original classification rules Take Table 1 as an example. The menus provided by the current website are hierarchical forms. Generally, each operation option is based on the nature of the currency and the bank's Services, such as: Taiwanese currency services, foreign currency services, and financial services, the operation options are divided into different categories based on category options. In addition, in each category, it will continue to be divided into multi-level classifications such as second-level classification and third-level classification according to different detailed services, so as to structure the overall function menu menu and make it easy for managers to manage.

However, for most users, such a classification method increases the user's operational difficulties. For example, when a user wants to set up notifications for an account or online banking, the user must first execute the operation option of my account in the first level classification option to open the second level corresponding to my account Multiple operation options in classification options.

Finally, the user executes the operation options of the notification service from the third-level classification options to perform related settings of the notification service. In this way, not only does the user need to perform multiple operation options before the operation options that the user actually wants to perform can be performed. And when the user is not familiar with various classification options, they often need to click different classification options and operation options multiple times to find the operation options to be performed.

Moreover, multiple operation options performed by users often execute different operation options according to a certain order, that is, these operation options are often related to each other. For example, after the user executes and sets the settings in the notification service, the user will continue to set whether to send general electronic financial information and whether to agree to the recommendation of trust business. At this time, the user must return to the first-level classification option and click the classification option of the financial service to open the second-level classification option corresponding to the financial service. Then, the user executes the operation option of agreeing / disagreeing with the recommendation of the trust business in the second-level classification option to set whether to agree with the recommendation of the trust business. Then, the user returns to the second-level classification option and clicks Agree / Disagree to send general electronic financial information to complete the setting of sending general electronic financial information.

In order to reduce the complexity of user operations, the electronic device 100 in the present disclosure further stores a recording module 122, an analysis module 124, and an associated function menu menu generating module 126 in the storage unit 120.

The recording module 122 records multiple operations performed by the user in the storage unit 120 to form multiple historical operations in the storage unit 120. In other words, historical operations are a collection formed by multiple different users and operations performed by them over a period of time (for example: one month, one year, all time points). Each historical operation records the name of the user, the operation performed by the user, and the date and time of execution, so as to know the order in which this historical operation occurred. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the recording module 122 also records the login time of the user in the storage unit 120.

The analysis module 124 analyzes historical operations according to a preset rule to determine a sorting rule of operation options. Specifically, when one of the operation options is selected, the analysis module 124 analyzes the selection of the historical operation corresponding to the same operation option according to the historical operation corresponding to the selected operation option and the preset rule. The frequency by which to determine the collation of the operation options. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset rule may be a historical operation of analyzing the preset number of pens, and a user's clicking frequency for different operation options in the next historical operation corresponding to the same operation option. Thereby, the analysis module 124 can find the operation option with the highest probability of being clicked out of every operation option that the user may click next based on the historical operation and preset rules.

That is, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the operation option is clicked, the analysis module 124 captures the corresponding selected operation according to the preset number of operations according to the user name and the selected operation option. Option history operation. In addition, the analysis module 124 analyzes the next historical operation in the captured historical operation according to the time of the historical operation to determine the relevance of the operation options. For example, when the preset number of transactions is 10, the analysis module 124 captures the historical operations of the "deposit details" of the latest 10 transactions from the historical operations. In addition, the analysis module 124 analyzes the next historical operation after the 10 historical operations of "deposit details", 7 of which have selected "Deposit Interest Trial" and 3 have selected "Taiwan Dollars to Foreign Currency". At this time, the analysis module 124 determines that the operation option performed by the user has the highest probability as "trial calculation of deposit interest". In this way, the analysis module 124 adds the "Deposit Interest Trial" to one of the related options in the related menu menu.

However, if the selected operation option does not have any corresponding historical operation, it means that the selected operation option is completely unrelated to the previous operation history. Therefore, the analysis module 124 only finds the corresponding operation option according to the function of the selected operation option and provides it to the user.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset rule may be to analyze the user's click frequency of different operation options in the next historical operation corresponding to the same operation option in the preset interval according to the time when the user logs in. In this way, the analysis module 124 causes different associations between the operation options according to the login time. For example, the analysis module 124 stores a preset time interval (for example, three months). When the user logs in and clicks the operation option, the analysis module 124 analyzes historical operations within three months corresponding to the selected operation option. History operations that are more than three months away from login will be considered invalid history operations. In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the historical operations in different time intervals are given different degrees of association. For example, the historical operation weight for three months can be set to 1, the historical operation weight for three to six months can be set to 0.6, and the historical operation weight for more than six months to one year can be set to 0.2. , The weight of historical operations over one year can be set to zero. However, this disclosure is not limited to this.

In yet another embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset rule may be an operation option with the highest frequency of clicks among historical operations of all users within a preset time interval, thereby analyzing the module 124 according to all users. Analysis of your history to get action options that match recent trends. For example, the analysis module 124 may find and analyze historical operations corresponding to the selected operation option based on historical operations of all users in a preset time interval (for example, three months). For example, after analyzing the historical records, the analysis module 124 finds that in the past three months of historical operations, "password change" is the operation option with the highest number of clicks. Therefore, the analysis module 124 adds “password change” to one of the related options of the related menu menu.

In addition, in another embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset rule may be an event trend. The analysis module 124 analyzes the big data of the network by itself to obtain the latest event trend. For example, after analysis, the analysis module 124 obtains the recent "account theft" event and recommends that the public change the password. Therefore, the analysis module 124 adds “password change” to one of the related options of the related menu.

In addition, in another embodiment of the present disclosure, the preset rule may be an operation option with the highest click frequency among the ethnic groups corresponding to the identity of the user. The analysis module 124 further analyzes the identity of the user to find the ethnic group corresponding to the user. The analysis module 124 then provides the related option of the related function table according to the click frequency of each operation option of this group. For example, when the user is a 30-year-old male, the analysis module 124 finds the historical operations of all 30-year-old male users, and after analysis, finds that the 30-year-old male has the most frequently selected operation option as "fund purchase". Therefore, the analysis module 124 adds "fund purchase" to one of the related options of the related menu menu. However, the ethnic group corresponding to the user is not limited to age and gender, and the analysis module 124 can also perform analysis based on the user's investment type and total assets, and the disclosure is not limited thereto.

It should be noted that the methods of analyzing the historical operations and obtaining the related function menu menus by the analysis module 124 described above can be combined with each other. For example, the analysis module 124 simultaneously weights the historical records of the groups based on the user ’s group and time. Connect options to users.

In addition, the context menu can also include the operation options generated in the above-mentioned various ways, that is, it also provides "deposit interest trial", "password change" and "fund purchase".

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the associated function menu menu presets a certain number of operation options, for example, 9 different operation options are provided. Then, the analysis module 124 may repeatedly execute each of the above methods to analyze the associated options with the highest probability of clicking by the first 9 users and provide them to the users.

The related function menu menu generating module 126 generates the related function menu menu according to the sorting rules generated by the analysis module 124 and instructs the communication unit 110 to send the related function menu menu to the user's terminal device 10.
