It should be understood that the number of devices and networks in FIG. 1 are only schematic. According to the implementation needs, there can be any number of devices and networks.

With continued reference to FIG. 2, a flow 200 of an embodiment of a method for generating a group chat avatar according to the present application is shown. The process 200 of the method for generating a group chat avatar includes the following steps:

Step 201: Acquire an avatar set related to the group chat avatar of the target group chat.

In this embodiment, the execution subject of the method for generating a group chat avatar may be the first device (for example, the device 105 shown in FIG. 1), or may be the second device that is in communication with the first device (for example, FIG. 1 Shown devices 101, 102, 103).

A social application supported by the first device may be installed on the second device. The target group chat may be a group chat created by a user to whom the second device belongs to through the social application request. Here, the above-mentioned target group chat may include a group owner and a group member. Among them, the group owner can refer to a user who has the management authority of the group chat. For a newly created group chat, the owner of the group chat is generally the user who requested to create the group chat. It should be noted that the group members in this embodiment are non-group owners; the social application in this embodiment refers to an application with a social function, and the social application may have functions other than social. In some embodiments, the social The main functions of the application are non-social functions.

When the user to which the second device belongs belongs to create the target group chat through the social application, the execution subject may obtain an avatar set related to the group chat avatar of the target group chat. As an example, if the number of the group owner and the group members of the target group chat does not exceed the upper limit of the number of avatars that can be displayed by the group chat avatar of the target group chat, the execution subject may determine that the avatar set includes the group avatar and all groups Member's avatar. The upper limit of the number of avatars may be 6 or 9, for example. It should be understood that the upper limit of the number of avatars can be set according to actual needs, and is not specifically limited here.

In some optional implementations of this embodiment, if the number of the group owner and group members of the target group chat exceeds the upper limit of the number of avatars, the execution subject may select at least one of the group members of the target group chat Group members, and determine that the above-mentioned avatar set includes the group owner's avatar and at least one selected group member's avatar. Here, the execution subject may randomly select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat, for example.

It should be noted that the number of at least one group member selected by the execution subject is not greater than the difference between the upper limit of the number of avatars and the preset natural number. As an example, suppose that the upper limit of the number of avatars is 6, and the difference between the upper limit of the number of avatars and the preset natural number 1 is 5. If the number of the group owner and the group members of the target group chat exceeds 6, the execution subject may select 5 group members from the group members of the target group chat. The preset natural number usually indicates the number of group owners.

It should be noted that if the above-mentioned execution subject is the first device (for example, the device 105 shown in FIG. 1 ), the first device may combine information from the second device to obtain an avatar set related to the group chat avatar of the target group chat ; If the above execution subject is a second device (such as the devices 101, 102, and 103 shown in FIG. 1), the second device may combine information from the first device to obtain an avatar set related to the group chat avatar of the target group chat .

Step 202: Based on the avatar set, generate a group chat avatar of the target group chat.

In this embodiment, the execution subject may generate the group chat avatar of the target group chat based on the avatar set. Wherein, the group chat avatar may include the group owner's avatar and the at least one group member's avatar when presented, and the display area of the group chat's avatar of the group chat avatar may be larger than the display of the at least one group member's avatar area.

As an example, if the set of avatars includes the avatar A of the group owner and the avatar B of a group member, the group chat avatar generated by the execution subject may be as shown in FIG. 3a, for example. If the above-mentioned avatar set includes the avatar A of the group owner and the avatars B and C of the two group members, the group chat avatar generated by the execution subject may be shown in FIG. 3b, for example. If the above avatar set includes the head A of the group owner and the heads B, C, and D of the three group members, the group chat avatar generated by the above-mentioned execution subject may be shown in FIG. 3c, for example. If the above avatar set includes the group avatar A and the four group members' avatars B, C, D, and E, the group chat avatar generated by the execution subject may be shown in FIG. 3d, for example. If the above avatar set includes the head A of the group owner and the heads B, C, D, E, and F of the five group members, the group chat avatar generated by the above-mentioned execution subject may be shown in FIG. 3e, for example.

It should be emphasized that this embodiment does not limit the position of the group owner's avatar and the group member's avatar in the group chat avatar.

In this embodiment, the execution subject may store a group chat avatar template set. Each group chat avatar template can correspond to the number of avatars. Among them, the number of avatars is not greater than the upper limit of the number of avatars. The execution subject may select a group chat avatar template corresponding to the number of avatars included in the above avatar set from the group chat avatar template set as the target group chat avatar template. Then, the execution subject may generate the group chat avatar of the target group chat based on the avatar set and the target group chat avatar template.

Here, each group chat avatar template may include a first area for placing the group owner's avatar. The group chat avatar template corresponding to the number of avatars greater than 1 includes at least one second area for placing group members' avatars while including the first area. The range of the first area is larger than the range of the second area. The execution subject may place the head of the group owner in the avatar set in the first area of the target group chat avatar template, and place the head of the group member in the avatar set in the second area of the target group chat avatar template . Then, the above-mentioned execution subject may generate the group chat avatar of the target group chat from the target group chat avatar template after the avatar is placed. It should be noted that, for example, the execution subject may randomly place the avatar of the group member in the avatar set to the second area in the target group chat avatar template.

In some optional implementations of this embodiment, in order to obtain a better display of the group member's avatar, the second area in the group chat avatar template may also correspond to a serial number in advance. The execution subject may obtain the attribute values of the set attributes of the at least one group member, and then sort the avatars of the at least one group member based on the acquired attribute values, and then according to the avatars of the at least one group member Sequence number, place the avatar in the corresponding second area in the target group chat avatar template.

Among them, a set attribute of a group member can characterize the attribute of one dimension of the group member. The set attributes may include, for example, but not limited to group entry time, geographic location, avatar matching degree, group activity degree or group contribution degree, and so on. The avatar collocation degree can be used to characterize the gradation degree of the color tone and/or style between the group member avatar and the group owner avatar, for example. It should be noted that the first device may run a thread for real-time or periodic statistics of the attribute values of the set attributes of the group members of the group chat created by the social application. Therefore, the execution subject may obtain the attribute value of one or more set attributes of the group member of the target group chat from the data collected by the thread.

Specifically, if the attribute is set to the group joining time, the execution subject may sort the avatars of the at least one group member according to the order of the attribute value of the group joining time from early to late. If the attribute is set to geographic location, when the execution subject obtains the attribute value of the geographic location of the at least one group member, the attribute value of the geographic location of the group owner of the target group chat can also be acquired, and then based on the acquired Based on the attribute value of the geographic location, the distance between the at least one group member and the group owner is calculated, and then the avatars of the at least one group member are sorted according to the distance from the closest to the farthest. If the attribute is set to the avatar collocation degree, the execution subject may sort the avatars of the at least one group member according to the order of the attribute values of the avatar collocation degree from high to low.

It should be understood that the method of setting attributes and sorting the avatars of the at least one group member based on the attribute values of the setting attributes can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not specifically limited herein.

The method provided in the above embodiment of the present application obtains an avatar set related to the group chat avatar of the target group chat, where the avatar set includes the avatar of the group owner of the target group chat and the avatar of at least one group member in the target group chat , So as to generate a group chat avatar of the target group chat based on the avatar set, wherein the group chat avatar includes the group avatar and the at least one group member avatar when presented, and the group avatar of the group chat avatar The display area is larger than the display area of the at least one group member's avatar. The solution provided by the above-mentioned embodiments of the present application realizes targeted information generation. Allowing the group owner's avatar to occupy a larger display area in the group chat avatar can make the group owner's avatar better displayed.

With further reference to FIG. 4, it shows a flow 400 of one embodiment of a method for generating a group chat avatar. The process 400 of the method for generating a group chat avatar includes the following steps:

Step 401: If the number of the group owner and the group members of the target group chat exceeds the upper limit of the number of avatars that can be displayed by the group chat avatar of the target group chat, the attribute value of the set attribute of the group member of the target group chat is obtained.

In this embodiment, the execution subject of the method for generating a group chat avatar may be the first device (for example, the device 105 shown in FIG. 1), or may be a second device (for example, as shown in FIG. 1) that is in communication with the first device Shown devices 101, 102, 103).

A social application supported by the first device may be installed on the second device. The target group chat may be a group chat created by a user to whom the second device belongs to through the social application request. Here, the above-mentioned target group chat may include a group owner and a group member. The group owner may refer to a user who has the management authority of the group chat. For a newly created group chat, the owner of the group chat is generally the user who requested to create the group chat. It should be noted that the group members in the embodiments of the present application are non-group owners; the social application in this embodiment refers to an application with a social function, and the social application may have functions other than social. In some embodiments, the The main functions of social applications are non-social functions.

When a user belonging to the second device creates the target group chat through the social application, if the number of group owners and group members of the target group chat exceeds the upper limit of the number of avatars that can be displayed by the group chat avatar of the target group chat, then The execution subject may obtain the attribute value of the set attribute of the group member of the target group chat. The set attributes may include, for example, but not limited to group entry time, geographic location, avatar collocation degree, group activity degree or group contribution degree, and so on. The avatar collocation degree can be used to characterize the collocation degree of the color tone and/or style between the group member's avatar and the group owner's avatar. For the explanation of setting attributes, please refer to the relevant description in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, which will not be repeated here.

Step 402: Select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat based on the acquired attribute value.

In this embodiment, the execution subject may select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat based on the acquired attribute value. Wherein, the number of the at least one group member is not greater than the difference between the upper limit of the number of avatars and the preset natural number. As an example, suppose that the upper limit of the number of avatars is 6, and the difference between the upper limit of the number of avatars and the preset natural number 1 is 5. If the number of the group owner and the group members of the target group chat exceeds 6, the execution subject may select 5 group members from the group members of the target group chat. The preset natural number usually indicates the number of group owners.

As an example, if the attribute is set to the group joining time, the execution subject may select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat according to the order of the property value of the group joining time from early to late. For example, if the upper limit of the number of avatars is 6, and the preset natural number is 1, the execution subject may select 5 group members with the earliest group joining time from the group members of the target group chat. If the attribute is set to the avatar collocation degree, the above-mentioned execution subject may select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat according to the order of the attribute values of the avatar collocation degree from high to low.

If the attribute is set to geographic location, when the execution subject obtains the attribute value of the geographic location of the group member of the target group chat, the attribute value of the geographic location of the group owner of the target group chat can also be obtained, and then based on the obtained Calculate the distance between the group member of the target group chat and the group owner, and then select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat according to the order of distance from near to far. Or, if the attribute is set to a geographic location, the above-mentioned execution subject may divide the group members of the target group chat based on the acquired attribute value of the geographic location, and then from the group members located in the divided gathering places Select at least one group member.

It should be understood that the method of setting the attribute and selecting at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat based on the attribute value of the setting attribute can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not specifically limited herein.

Step 403: Generate an avatar set including the avatar of the group owner of the target group chat and the avatar of the selected at least one group member.

In this embodiment, after performing the step 402, the execution subject may generate an avatar set including the avatar of the group owner of the target group chat and the avatar of at least one selected group member. For example, the execution subject may obtain the avatar of the group owner of the target group chat and the avatar of at least one selected group member, and then form the acquired avatar to form the above-mentioned avatar set.

Step 404: Based on the avatar set, generate a group chat avatar of the target group chat.

In this embodiment, after generating the avatar set, the execution subject may generate a group chat avatar of the target group chat based on the avatar set. Wherein, the group chat avatar may include a group owner's avatar and at least one selected group member's avatar when presented, and the group chat avatar's avatar's avatar display area in the group chat avatar may be larger than the selected at least one group member Display area of your avatar. For the explanation of step 404, reference may be made to the relevant description of step 202 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, which will not be repeated here.

As can be seen from FIG. 4, compared with the embodiment corresponding to FIG. 2, the process 400 of the method for generating a group chat avatar in this embodiment highlights the acquisition of the avatar set related to the group chat avatar of the target group chat Method of expanding steps. Therefore, the solution described in this embodiment can realize the diversity of information processing, and the head of the group chat and the group member's avatar of the target group chat can be better displayed.

In some optional implementations of the method for generating a group chat avatar provided in the embodiments corresponding to FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, respectively, the execution subject of the method for generating a group chat avatar generates a target group based on the avatar set After the group chat avatar, you can detect whether the group owner of the target group chat has changed in real time. Generally, when the group owner requests to quit the above-mentioned target group chat, and when the group owner requests to transfer the management authority of the target group chat, the change of the group owner can be triggered. In response to detecting that the group owner of the target group chat has changed, the execution subject may replace the group owner's avatar before the change in the target group chat's group chat avatar with the changed group owner's avatar.

In some optional implementations of the method for generating a group chat avatar provided in the embodiments corresponding to FIGS. 2 and 4, respectively, the above-mentioned execution subject may also detect that the avatar is included in the group chat avatar of the target group chat in real time Whether the members of the target group quit the above target group chat. Here, when a target group member exits the target group chat, the execution subject may receive a corresponding exit group notification, for example. The execution subject may respond to detecting that the target group member exits the target group chat, and the number of group owners and group members of the target group chat is less than the upper limit of the number of avatars that can be displayed by the group chat avatar of the target group chat. Remove the avatar of the target group member from the group chat avatar of group chat.

In addition, the execution subject may also respond to the target group member exiting the target group chat in response to detecting that the avatar is included in the group chat avatar of the target group chat, and the number of the group owner and group members of the target group chat is not less than the above Maximum number of avatars, remove the avatar of the target group member from the group chat avatar of the above target group chat, and select at least one group member from the group member of the above target group chat The avatar is added to the group chat avatar of the above target group chat. Here, the execution subject may select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat based on the number of the target group members. The number of the at least one group member may be the same as the number of the target group member.

It should be noted that, after removing the avatar of the target group member from the group chat avatar of the target group chat, the execution subject may randomly select at least one group member from the group member of the target group chat. Alternatively, after removing the avatar of the target group member from the group chat avatar of the target group chat, the execution subject may also obtain the attribute value of the set attribute of the group member of the target group chat, and based on the acquired attribute value , Select at least one group member from the group members in the above target group chat. It should be noted that the setting attributes here may include, for example, but not limited to group entry time, geographic location, avatar matching degree, group activity degree or group contribution degree, and so on.

Among them, the activity within the group can be used to characterize the activity of the group members in the target group chat. The intra-group activity can be calculated based on, for example, at least one of the following: the frequency and/or duration of opening the chat window of the target group chat, the number of chats in the chat window, the number of chat words, the chat frequency, and/or The length of the chat. For example, the chat duration can be estimated based on the time when a group member publishes a chat message. If a group member publishes a new chat message within the first set duration (for example, 1 minute or 2 minutes, etc.) after publishing a chat message, you can Determine that the group members are in chat. Of course, the duration of the chat can also be calculated based on the time when the screen of the device used by the group member is unlocked and the chat window is opened. It should be understood that the intra-group activity can be calculated based on any parameter used to determine whether the group members are active, and is not specifically limited here.

The group contribution can be used to characterize the contribution of group members to the target group chat. The group contribution can be calculated based on at least one of the following: the number of invitations to invite others to join the above-mentioned target group chat, the group activity and/or group contribution after the invited others join the above-mentioned target group chat, in the above The number and/or frequency of resources sent in the target group chat, the number of files uploaded in the target group chat and/or the number of uploaded files downloaded, and so on. Here, the resources include virtual items that can be distributed through the Internet. For example, the resources may include, but are not limited to, red envelopes, coupons, and coupons. The number of resources sent in the above target group chat can refer to the total number or total amount of resources after joining the group, or it can refer to the total number of resources within the latest second set duration (such as one week, half month, or one month, etc.) or total amount.

If the setting attribute is group joining time, geographic location or avatar matching degree, the method for selecting group members may refer to the relevant description in step 402, and will not be repeated here. If the attribute is set to the intra-group activity, the execution subject may select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat in order of the attribute value of the intra-group activity from high to low. If the attribute is set to the group contribution degree, the execution subject may select at least one group member from the group members of the target group chat in order of the attribute value of the group contribution degree from high to low.

In some alternative implementations of the method for generating a group chat avatar provided in the embodiments corresponding to FIGS. 2 and 4, respectively, the above-mentioned execution subject may perform the following update operation in response to determining that the current time reaches the target time: from the above Select at least one group member among the group members of the target group chat; determine whether the selected at least one group member is consistent with the group member associated with the group chat avatar of the above target group chat, where the group associated with the group chat avatar The members are group members whose avatars are included in the group chat avatar; if they are inconsistent, the group chat avatar of the target group chat is updated based on the selected at least one group member's avatar. It should be noted that the target time may be, for example, a specific time point such as daily, weekly, or monthly, or the time interval between the time point when the above update operation was last performed and the third set duration At this time, there is no specific limit here. In practice, the third set duration can be set according to actual needs.
