Referring to FIG2 , the present application provides a method for providing associated book information. The method comprises the following steps:

In response to detecting a reading exit operation of the user in the current reading interface, the user device sends the book information recommendation request to the network device;

The network device determines book information of at least one electronic book based on the book information recommendation request, and generates associated book information, wherein the associated book information includes the book information;

The network device sends the associated book information to the user device; and

The user device receives the associated book information and overlays and presents the book information of at least one electronic book in the current reading interface.

The following is a description from two aspects: user equipment and network equipment.

User equipment

According to one aspect of the present application, the present application provides a method for providing associated book information. The method is applied to a user device, and with reference to FIG3 , includes steps S110, S120, and S130. In step S110, the user device 100 sends the book information recommendation request to the network device in response to detecting a reading exit operation of the user in the current reading interface; in step S120, the user device 100 receives the associated book information returned by the network device based on the book information recommendation request, and the associated book information includes book information of at least one electronic book; and in step S130, the user device 100 presents the book information of at least one electronic book in the current reading interface.

Specifically, in step S110, the user device 100 sends the book information recommendation request to the network device in response to detecting the user's reading exit operation in the current reading interface. For example, the current reading interface is used to present the content of the electronic book currently being read by the user, and the user device optionally provides functions such as page turning and page setting in this interface. The user presses a physical button on the user device or triggers a touch button provided by the user device (for example, the touch button is triggered by a tap or a sliding gesture), wherein in some embodiments the touch button is provided on the current reading interface, for example, the touch button is a virtual button presented on the current reading interface. When the user device 100 detects the corresponding exit operation, it generates and sends a book information recommendation request to the network device, and the book information recommendation request is used to request the server for information about electronic books recommended to the user. In some embodiments, the book information recommendation request is generated in real time based on the user's reading exit operation, thereby realizing real-time book recommendation in combination with the specific situation when the user exits reading.

In step S120, the user device 100 receives the associated book information returned by the network device based on the book information recommendation request, and the associated book information includes book information of at least one electronic book. In some embodiments, the associated book information is information about electronic books related to the user (e.g., electronic books that the user may be interested in), or information about electronic books related to the electronic books read by the user before performing the reading exit operation (e.g., information about electronic books of the same/different classification, same/different subject matter, etc. as the electronic book). The associated book information may optionally include one or more items of information such as the book name, the author of the book, the publisher, the version information, the file size, the cover or cover thumbnail, the content introduction, and the price, and those skilled in the art should understand that this information is only for example and not for any limitation on the specific implementation of the present application. Other existing or future information items that may appear, if applicable to the present application and used as associated book information, are also included in the scope of protection of the present application and are included here by reference.

In step S130, the user device 100 presents book information of at least one electronic book in the current reading interface. For example, these electronic books are recommended to the user who quits reading the electronic book currently being read, thereby saving the user the trouble of re-searching for other electronic books that may be of interest, thereby improving the user's usage experience.

In some embodiments, the above step S110 includes sub-steps S111 and S112 (both not shown). In sub-step S111, the user device 100 generates a book information recommendation request in response to detecting a reading exit operation of the user in the current reading interface, wherein the book information recommendation request includes the first identification information of the current book. Here, "current book" refers to the electronic book that the user is reading before exiting reading. In some embodiments, the first identification information of the current book is used by the network device to match and determine electronic books with the same/different classification, the same/different subject matter, etc. as the current book. Subsequently, in sub-step S112, the user device 100 sends the book information recommendation request to the network device. Accordingly, in step S120, the user device 100 receives the associated book information returned by the network device based on the first identification information. In the case of providing the first identification information of the current book to the network device, the network device can accurately provide the user with other related electronic books based on the current book. For example, in the case where the user exits reading the current book, the electronic book with the same classification or subject matter as the current book is no longer recommended to the user, because the user is likely not interested in the current book.

In some embodiments, in the above sub-step S111, the user device 100, in response to detecting the user's reading exit operation in the current reading interface, provides the user with collection prompt information, so as to remind the user to collect the current book before the user starts reading other books, so that the user can continue to read the book currently being read in the future without having to repeatedly search for the book currently being read; thereafter, in response to detecting the user's cancel collection operation, a book information recommendation request is generated, wherein the book information recommendation request includes the first identification information of the current book. In some embodiments, the above method also includes step S140 (not shown). In step S140, the user device 100, in response to detecting the user's collection operation, generates a book information recommendation request, wherein the book information recommendation request includes the first identification information of the current book; wherein the network device 200 determines the user's most recently collected book information based on the first identification information, and determines the user's historical reading information based on the user's most recently collected book information. The collection operation reflects that the user is interested in the current book, so the first identification information included in the book information recommendation request can be used by the network device to provide the user with electronic books related to the current book (for example, electronic books with the same/different classification, the same/different subject matter, etc. as the current book), thereby increasing the possibility of users quickly finding similar electronic books, thereby improving the user's operating efficiency, saving system resources and enhancing the user's experience. In other embodiments, the book information of the electronic book provided to the user is provided together with the collection prompt, thereby reducing the user's operating steps and improving operating efficiency. Specifically, in step S130, the user device 100 presents the book information of at least one electronic book in the current reading interface and provides the user with collection prompt information.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned book information recommendation request also includes the reading progress information of the current book. In particular, in some embodiments, the reading progress information of the current book is instantly acquired by the user device 100 before the above-mentioned book information recommendation request is generated. For example, the reading progress information includes (but is not limited to) any one or more of the following items:

-The proportion of the content that users have read in the entire e-book;

-The proportion of the content that users have not read in the entire e-book;

-The number of words the user has read;

-The number of words that the user has not read yet;

-The cumulative reading time of the user reading the current book;

-The estimated remaining reading time for the user to finish the current book.

It should be understood that the above items are only examples and are not limitations on the reading progress information in this application. Based on the reading progress information, the system (or network device) can provide users with more accurate book recommendation results, further improve the efficiency of recommending electronic books of interest to users, and avoid recommending electronic books that are not of interest to users. For example, the reading progress information reflects the user's interest in the current book. The more the user has completed reading, the more interested the user is in the current book, and electronic books similar to the current book should be recommended to the user; conversely, the less the user has completed reading, the less interested the user is in the current book, and the recommendation of such electronic books to the user should be reduced. By instantly obtaining the user's progress in reading the current book and generating the above-mentioned book request, the system can achieve better real-time performance.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned book information recommendation request includes the user's annotation information in the current book. Specifically, in step S100, the user device 100 generates a book information recommendation request in response to detecting the user's reading exit operation in the current reading interface, wherein the book information recommendation request includes the user's annotation information in the current book. Wherein, the network device determines the book information of at least one electronic book based on the annotation information, and provides the user with associated book information, and the associated book information includes the book information of the at least one electronic book. Wherein the user's annotation information includes (but is not limited to): sentences, paragraphs, etc. selected/highlighted by the user in the current book; user comments on part of the content in the current book; user replies to comments of other users; etc. Based on the user's annotation information, the system (or network device) can accurately determine the electronic books that the user is interested in (for example, based on the user's annotation content, matching similar annotation content of other users in other electronic books, and then recommending corresponding other electronic books to the user), or determine other readers with the same or similar reading habits as the user and further recommend electronic books to the user.

In some embodiments, the above step S130 includes sub-steps S131 and S132 (both not shown). In sub-step S131, the user device 100 presents an information window in the current reading interface, and the information window partially covers the current reading interface. The information window is also referred to as a "pop-up window" in some cases. Referring to the user interface shown in FIG. 4, the user interface provides the user with a current reading interface, and the content of the current book being read by the user is presented in the current reading interface. After the information window is presented, the current reading interface is partially covered by the information window, so that the user can continue to read the content of the electronic book currently being read and compare it while reading the relevant information of the electronic book recommended by the system from the information window. On this basis, in some embodiments, step S130 further includes sub-step S133 (not shown). In sub-step S133, the user device 100 adjusts the coverage ratio of the information window in the current reading interface in response to detecting the user's window adjustment operation. For example, the aforementioned reading interface is presented on the touch screen of the user's device. The user drags the information window in the direction of the dotted arrow on the touch screen, so that the information window covers a larger area on the screen of the user's device to provide the user with more recommended e-book information and improve screen utilization.

In some embodiments, in addition to the book information of the recommended electronic books, the above information window also includes some promotional information (for example, promotional information obtained by matching based on the user's reading habits, etc.), providing relevant guidance for the user to achieve optimal allocation of resources. Correspondingly, in the above step S120, the user device 100 receives the associated book information and promotional information returned by the network device based on the book information recommendation request, and the associated book information includes the book information of at least one electronic book; in sub-step S132, the user device 100 presents the promotional information and the book information of at least one electronic book in the information window. In particular, in some embodiments, the above promotional information includes promotional book information, for example, the promotional book information is determined based on the electronic books that other users tend to read, collect, pay for, etc., so as to provide reading suggestions for the current user.

In various embodiments of the present application, the book information recommendation request sent to the network device may optionally include user identification information of the current user (such as the user's user name in the application, user ID, etc.). The network device may determine the user's reading history, reading preferences, etc. based on the user identification information to improve the accuracy of recommending books to the user.

Network equipment

Referring to Figure 5, according to one aspect of the present application, the present application also provides a method for providing associated book information, which is applied to a network device. The method includes steps S210, S220, S230, and S240. In step S210, the network device 200 receives a book information recommendation request sent by a user device based on a reading exit operation of a user in a current reading interface; in step S220, the network device 200 determines the book information of at least one electronic book based on the book information recommendation request; in step S230, the network device 200 generates associated book information, and the associated book information includes the book information; and in step S240, the network device sends the associated book information to the user device.

Specifically, in step S210, the network device 200 receives a book information recommendation request sent by the user device based on the user's reading exit operation in the current reading interface. The book information recommendation request is used to request the server for information about electronic books recommended to the user. In some embodiments, the book information recommendation request is generated in real time based on the user's reading exit operation, thereby realizing real-time book recommendation in combination with the specific situation when the user exits reading.

In step S220, the network device 200 determines the book information of at least one electronic book based on the book information recommendation request. For example, the network device determines one or more of the following electronic books (but not limited to these, for example only), and determines the book information of the electronic book (such as cover, book name, abstract, etc.):

-The most read e-book or e-books by readers on the entire network (or readers in a certain group);

-The most popular e-book or e-books collected by readers on the entire network (or readers in a certain group);

-Determine relevant e-books based on the current user's relevant information (including but not limited to reading history, collection history, etc.);

- Determine related electronic books based on the electronic book currently being read by the user (current book), such as other electronic books of different types or different themes than the current book.

Then in step S230, the network device 200 generates associated book information, which includes the book information; and in step S240, the network device 200 sends the associated book information to the user device, so that the user device provides the book information of the above-mentioned related electronic books to the user.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned book information recommendation request includes the first identification information of the current book that the user is reading. Here, "current book" refers to the electronic book that the user is reading before exiting reading. In step S220, the network device 200 determines the book information of at least one electronic book based on the first identification information. For example, the network device performs a matching operation based on the first identification information of the current book to determine other electronic books with the same/different classification, same/different subject matter, etc. as the current book; the matching operation can be based on the book name, classification, subject matter, label (such as evaluation from readers), rating (such as evaluation from readers), shelf suggestion, etc. obtained by querying the first identification information. In some embodiments, the above-mentioned step S220 includes sub-steps S221 and S222 (neither of which are shown). In sub-step S221, the network device 200 determines the reading preference information of the user based on the first identification information, for example, removing the keyword of the current book name, the abstract keyword, the classification of the current book, the subject of the current book, the tag of the current book, etc. from the user's preference list to update the user's reading preference information; in sub-step S222, the network device determines the book information of at least one electronic book based on the reading preference information, for example, matching the electronic book for recommendation to the user according to the book name keyword, abstract keyword, book classification, book subject, book tag, etc. in the updated reading preference list. Thus, in the case of providing the first identification information of the current book to the network device, the network device can accurately provide the user with other related electronic books based on the current book, for example, in the case of the user quitting reading the current book, the electronic book with the same classification or subject as the current book is no longer recommended to the user, because the user is likely not interested in the current book.

In some embodiments, in the above sub-step S222, the network device 200 determines the book information of at least one electronic book based on the reading preference information and the rate of return information of at least one electronic book. For example, the electronic books recommended to the user include promotional books, and the promotional books are determined based on the electronic books that other users tend to read, collect, pay for, etc., so as to provide reading suggestions for the current user. In order to provide relevant guidance to the user, the optimal allocation of resources is achieved.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned book information recommendation request also includes the reading progress information of the current book. In particular, in some embodiments, the reading progress information of the current book is immediately acquired by the user device 100 before the above-mentioned book information recommendation request is generated. Accordingly, in sub-step S221, the network device 200 determines the reading preference information of the user based on the first identification information and the reading progress information. For example, the reading progress information includes (but is not limited to) any one or more of the following:

-The proportion of the content that users have read to the entire e-book content. E-books with a low proportion of content that has been read will be judged as books that users tend not to read;

-The proportion of the content that users have not read to the entire e-book content. E-books with a high proportion of unread content will be judged as books that users tend not to read;

-The number of words that the user has read. E-books with fewer words will be judged as books that the user is not inclined to read anymore;

-The number of words that the user has not read yet. E-books with a large number of words that have not been read will be judged as books that the user is not inclined to read;

- The cumulative reading time of the current book by the user. E-books with shorter cumulative reading time will be judged as books that the user is not inclined to read anymore;

-The estimated remaining reading time after the user finishes reading the current book. E-books with longer estimated remaining reading time will be judged as books that the user is inclined not to read.

It should be understood that the above items are only examples and are not limitations on the reading progress information in this application. Based on the reading progress information, the network device can provide users with more accurate book recommendation results, further improve the efficiency of recommending electronic books that users are interested in, and avoid recommending electronic books that users are not interested in. For example, the reading progress information reflects the user's interest in the current book. The more the user has completed reading, the more interested the user is in the current book, and electronic books similar to the current book should be recommended to the user; conversely, the less the user has completed reading, the less interested the user is in the current book, and the recommendation of such electronic books to the user should be reduced. By instantly obtaining the user's progress in reading the current book and generating the above-mentioned book request, the system can achieve better real-time performance.

In some embodiments, in order to improve the processing efficiency of the system and reduce the pressure of data storage, in step S220, the network device first determines the second identification information of at least one electronic book based on the first identification information, for example, by querying and determining at least one related (for example, the same category or the same subject) electronic book, wherein the mapping relationship between electronic books has been determined in advance in some embodiments; then determines the corresponding book information based on the second identification information, for example, by querying and determining the title, abstract, classification and other book information of the corresponding electronic book based on the second identification information, so as to provide the book information of the recommended electronic book to the user.

In some embodiments, the above-mentioned book information recommendation request includes the user's annotation information in the current book. Accordingly, in step S220, the network device 200 determines the book information of at least one electronic book based on the annotation information. The user's annotation information includes (but is not limited to): sentences, paragraphs, etc. selected/highlighted by the user in the current book; user comments on part of the content in the current book; user replies to other users' comments; etc. Based on the user's annotation information, the network device can accurately determine the electronic books that the user is interested in (for example, based on the user's annotation content, matching similar annotation content of other users in other electronic books, and then recommending corresponding other electronic books to the user), or determine other readers with the same or similar reading habits as the user and further recommend electronic books to the user. In one embodiment, the network device determines the similarity between the user's annotation information in the current book and the annotation information of other users in other electronic books. If the similarity reaches the similarity threshold, the aforementioned other electronic books are recommended to the current user.

In various embodiments of the present application, the book information recommendation request sent to the network device may optionally include the user identification information of the current user (e.g., the user name, user ID, etc. of the user in the application), and the network device may determine the user's reading history, reading preferences, etc. based on the user identification information to improve the accuracy of recommending books to the user. For example, in step S220, the network device 200 determines the user's historical reading information based on the user identification information, and then determines the book information of at least one electronic book based on the historical reading information to achieve accurate recommendation of electronic books. The historical reading information includes at least one of the following:

- information about books recently accessed by the user, such as information about electronic books recently read by the user;

- Information about books that the user has recently finished reading, such as information about electronic books whose reading progress has reached 100%;

- Information about books that the user has recently collected, such as information about electronic books that the user has recently added to the “bookshelf”;

- Reading progress information of at least one electronic book read by the user, such as the reading progress of one or several electronic books read by the user recently.

Some specific implementations of the present application are described in detail above. It should be understood that the above implementations are only examples and are not any limitation to the specific implementations of the present application.

According to another aspect of the present application, the present application further provides a user device 100 for providing associated book information. Referring to FIG6 , the user device 100 includes a first module 110, a first module 120, and a first module 130.
