User context recognition in messaging service environment and interaction with messaging service based on user context recognition

Abstract

Disclosed is technique for a user context detection and interaction with a messaging service based on a user context in a messaging service environment. An interaction method of a mobile device may include acquiring information associated with a context of at least one of a mobile device and a user of the mobile device under control of an application installed and executed on the mobile device in association with a messaging service, determining a context of the user based on the acquired information, verifying a function to be provided to the user through the messaging service based on the determined context of the user, dynamically determining a configuration of a user interface based on the determined context of the user, and providing the function through the user interface of which the configuration is dynamically determined.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A non-transitory computer-readable record medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a computer apparatus to perform an interaction method of the computer apparatus, the interaction method comprising:
 collecting, by the at least one processor, a message transmission and reception record in a messaging service;   determining, by the at least one processor, a chat participation level of a member or a chat session based on the collected message transmission and reception record; and   providing the determined chat participation level.   
     
     
         2 . The non-transitory computer-readable record medium of  claim 1 , wherein the determining comprises determining the chat participation level of the member or the chat session based on a number of times a message is sent or received for a period of time, which includes a current point in time, in association with the member or the chat session. 
     
     
         3 . The non-transitory computer-readable record medium of  claim 1 , wherein the providing comprises providing a value that represents the chat participation level of the member or the chat session as one of a plurality of levels or one of a plurality of colors. 
     
     
         4 . The non-transitory computer-readable record medium of  claim 1 , wherein the chat session corresponds to a chat session of an anonymity-based instant open chatroom. 
     
     
         5 . The non-transitory computer-readable record medium of  claim 1 , wherein the providing comprise providing the chat participation level such that a chat participation level of at least one second member joining the chat session is displayed for a first member joining the chat session. 
     
     
         6 . The non-transitory computer-readable record medium of  claim 1 , wherein the providing comprises providing a chat participation level for each of chat sessions joined by the member. 
     
     
         7 . The non-transitory computer-readable record medium of  claim 1 , wherein the providing comprises sorting a list of chat sessions joined by the member based on a chat participation level for each of the chat sessions joined by the member and providing the sorted list to the member. 
     
     
         8 . The non-transitory computer-readable record medium of  claim 1 , wherein the interaction method further comprises:
 determining, by the at least one processor, a second member to recommend to a first member based on a chat participation level of each of a plurality of members using the messaging service.   
     
     
         9 . An interaction method of a computer apparatus comprising at least one processor, the interaction method comprising:
 collecting, by the at least one processor, a message transmission and reception record in a messaging service;   determining, by the at least one processor, a chat participation level of a member or a chat session based on the collected message transmission and reception record; and   providing the determined chat participation level.   
     
     
         10 . A computer apparatus comprising:
 at least one processor configured to execute computer-readable instructions,   wherein the at least one processor is configured to cause the computer apparatus to,   collect a message transmission and reception record in a messaging service,   determine a chat participation level of a member or a chat session based on the collected message transmission and reception record, and   provide the determined chat participation level.   
     
     
         11 . The computer apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the computer apparatus to determine the chat participation level of the member or the chat session based on a number of times a message is sent or received for a period of time, which includes a current point in time, in association with the member or the chat session. 
     
     
         12 . The computer apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the computer apparatus to provide a value that represents the chat participation level of the member or the chat session as one of a plurality of levels or one of a plurality of colors. 
     
     
         13 . The computer apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the chat session corresponds to a chat session of an anonymity-based instant open chatroom.
