Abstract

A message processing method, terminal and system. The method includes: obtaining a user'"'"'s historical message interaction information and first context data associated with the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information, where the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information includes historical message interaction content and historical message replying status; determining the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences according to the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information and the first context data, where the message interaction preferences include a message reply policy and/or a message writing style; receiving a current message sent to the user, and obtaining second context data associated with the current message; and replying to the current message according to the message interaction preferences, the current message, and the second context data. With the present invention, the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences are determined, and the current message can be replied automatically, thereby enhancing user experience.

replying to the current message according to the message interaction preferences, the current message, and the second context data.

2. The method according to claim 1, further comprising performing preprocessing for the user'"'"'s historical message interaction content, wherein determining the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences comprises determining the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences according to the user'"'"'s preprocessed historical message interaction content and the first context data.

3. The method according to claim 1, further comprising, obtaining, from a server or a user database, historical message interaction information of at least one other user than the user, and third context data associated with the at least one other user'"'"'s historical message interaction information, wherein the third context data is used to represent the at least one other user'"'"'s user information or environment information when the at least one other user'"'"'s historical message interaction information occurs, and wherein determining the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences comprises determining the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences according to the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information, the first context data, the at least one other user'"'"'s historical message interaction information, and the third context data.

4. The method according to claim 1, wherein determining the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences comprises determining the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences in a statistic-based learning manner.

5. A message processing method, comprising:

obtaining a user'"'"'s historical message interaction information and a first context data associated with the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information, wherein the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information comprises a historical message interaction content and a historical message replying status, and wherein the first context data is used to represent user information or environment information when the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information occurs;

determining the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences according to the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information and the first context data, wherein the message interaction preferences comprise a message reply policy and/or a message writing style;

receiving a current message sent to the user;

obtaining second context data associated with the current message, wherein the second context data is used to represent user information or environment information when the user'"'"'s current message occurs; and

replying to the current message according to the message interaction preferences, the current message, and the second context data, wherein replying to the current message according to the message interaction preferences, the current message, and the second context data comprises;

determining, according to the message interaction preferences, a mapping rule between the user'"'"'s historical message interaction status, historical message reception content included in the user'"'"'s historical message interaction content, and the first context data;

using, according to the mapping rule, the current message and the second context data as an input of the mapping rule;

determining a message reply policy of the current message; and

replying to the current message according to the message reply policy of the current message.

6. The method according to claim 5, wherein replying to the current message according to the message reply policy of the current message comprises:

generating reply content when the message reply policy of the current message indicates replying to the current message; and

replying to the current message according to the message reply policy of the current message.

7. The method according to claim 5, wherein replying to the current message according to the message reply policy of the current message comprises:

generating reply content when the message reply policy of the current message indicates replying to the current message; and

replying to the current message according to the message reply policy and by using the message writing style included in the message interaction preferences.

8. The method according to claim 5, wherein replying to the current message according to the message reply policy of the current message comprises ignoring the current message when the message reply policy of the current message indicates no replying to the current message.

9. A message processing terminal, comprising:

a first obtaining module implemented in hardware and configured to obtain a user'"'"'s historical message interaction information and a first context data associated with the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information, wherein the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information comprises a historical message interaction content and a historical message replying status, and wherein the first context data is used to represent user information or environment information when the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information occurs;

a determining module configured to;

determine the user'"'"'s message interaction preferences according to the user'"'"'s historical message interaction information and the first context data that are obtained by the first obtaining module, wherein the message interaction preferences comprise a message reply policy and/or a message writing style; and

determine the message writing style that includes the user'"'"'s emoticon preferences according to emoticons in the user'"'"'s historical message interaction content and the first context data;
