Abstract

Method and system for content presentation are provided. A request is received for content from a user via the communication platform. Content is obtained based on the request. One or more parameters are determined based on information related to the user. The one or more parameters are associated with a user interface (UI) for presenting the content to the user. A UI is generated based on the one or more parameters. The content and the UI are transmitted to the user as a response to the request.

Claims (61)

1 . A method, implemented on a machine having at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform connected to a network for providing content with a user interface (UI), comprising:

receiving, via the communication platform, a request for content from a user;

obtaining content based on the request;

determining, based on information related to the user, one or more parameters associated with a UI for presenting the content to the user;

generating a UI based on the one or more parameters; and

transmitting the content and the UI to the user as a response to the request.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more parameters comprise at least one of presentation style, color, brightness, font, font style, font size, line spacing, and layout.

3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the information related to the user comprises at least one of the following:

user-specific request related information that includes at least one of age, gender, user identification, browsing history, and UI preference record; and

dynamic information that includes at least one of browser being used, user location, online time, and user device information.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the one or more parameters is determined based on the content.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

collecting information from a data warehouse including information related to one or more users;

analyzing the collected information to determine user behaviors;

generating one or more user groups based on different user behaviors; and

generating a set of parameters associated with UI to each user group based on user behaviors associated with the user group.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein the step of determining the one or more parameters comprises:

determining a user group based on the information related to the user; and

determining one or more parameters associated with a UI based on the set of parameters with respect to the determined user group.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the request is automatically generated based on an action of the user.

8 . A system including at least one processor, storage, and a communication platform connected to a network for providing content with a UI, comprising:

a request analysis unit configured for receiving a request for content from a user;

a content obtaining unit configured for obtaining content based on the request;

a user interface generation controller configured for

determining, based on information related to the user, one or more parameters associated with a UI for presenting the content to the user, and

generating a UI based on the one or more parameters; and

a dynamic UI/content transmitter configured for transmitting the content and the UI to the user as a response to the request.

9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more parameters comprise at least one of presentation style, color, brightness, font, font style, font size, line spacing, and layout.

10 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the information related to the user comprises at least one of the following:

user-specific request related information that includes at least one of age, gender, user identification, browsing history, and UI preference record; and

dynamic information that includes at least one of browser being used, user location, online time, and user device information.

11 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the one or more parameters is determined based on the content.

12 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the user interface generation controller comprises:

a user/data analysis unit configured for

collecting information from a data warehouse including information related to one or more users, and

analyzing the collected information to determine user behaviors;

a user grouping unit configured for generating one or more user groups based on different user behaviors; and

a user interface generating unit configured for generating a set of parameters associated with UI to each user group based on user behaviors associated with the user group.

13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the user interface generation controller comprises:

a group assigning unit configured for determining a user group based on the information related to the user; and

a personalized user interface determiner configured for determining one or more parameters associated with a UI based on the set of parameters with respect to the determined user group.

14 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the request is automatically generated based on an action of the user.

15 . A machine-readable tangible and non-transitory medium having information for providing content with a UI, wherein the information, when read by the machine, causes the machine to perform the following:

receiving, via the communication platform, a request for content from a user;

obtaining content based on the request;

determining, based on information related to the user, one or more parameters associated with a UI for presenting the content to the user;

generating a UI based on the one or more parameters; and

transmitting the content and the UI to the user as a response to the request.

16 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the one or more parameters comprise at least one of presentation style, color, brightness, font, font style, font size, line spacing, and layout.

17 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the information related to the user comprises at least one of the following:

user-specific request related information that includes at least one of age, gender, user identification, browsing history, and UI preference record; and

dynamic information that includes at least one of browser being used, user location, online time, and user device information.

18 . The medium of claim 15 , wherein the one or more parameters is determined based on the content.

19 . The medium of claim 18 , the information, when read by the machine, further causing the machine to perform the following:

collecting information from a data warehouse including information related to one or more users;

analyzing the collected information to determine user behaviors;

generating one or more user groups based on different user behaviors; and

generating a set of parameters associated with UI to each user group based on user behaviors associated with the user group.

20 . The medium of claim 19 , wherein the step of determining the one or more parameters comprises:

determining a user group based on the information related to the user; and

determining one or more parameters associated with a UI based on the set of parameters with respect to the determined user group.
