Abstract

Text data transmitted by a user device to a first server is retrieved. The text data is processed to determine whether an information recommendation rule set includes an information recommendation rule matching the text data. The information recommendation rule is set based on a recommendation information. If the information recommendation rule set includes the information recommendation rule matching the text data, the recommendation information is retrieved from a second server. A recommendation based on the recommendation information is transmitted to the user device.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , wherein the subject and the plurality of keywords are set for each information recommendation rule in the information recommendation rule set.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , wherein transmitting the information acquisition request to the second server comprises:

determining whether the information recommendation rule set comprises at least two information recommendation rules matching the text data;

in response to determining that the information recommendation rule set comprises at least two information recommendation rules matching the text data, selecting the information recommendation rule from the at least two information recommendation rules based on weights associated to keywords included in the at least two information recommendation rules;

adding a subject specified in the selected information recommendation rule to the information acquisition request; and

transmitting the information acquisition request to the second server.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein retrieving the text data transmitted by the chat application to the first server comprises one of:

retrieving, from the first server, the text data transmitted by the chat application to the first server; and

receiving the text data transmitted by the chat application, wherein the text data transmitted by the chat application is obtained by copying the text data transmitted by the chat application to the first server.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the information recommendation rule set at the first server.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the text data is automatically transmitted by the chat application to the first server before receiving the user input that is configured to transmit the text data.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the subject that is statistically determined based on a correspondence between the plurality of keywords and the subject.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein matching the text data comprises searching the plurality of keywords in a trie associated to the information recommendation rule and generating a set of matched nodes.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 12 , further comprising comparing the set of matched nodes to a threshold number of matched nodes and in response to exceeding the threshold number of matched nodes transmitting the recommendation to the chat application.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the recommendation comprises at least one of an advertisement, news, a picture, and a movie associated to the information recommendation rule.

15. A non-transitory, computer-readable storage media storing one or more instructions executable by a computer system to perform operations comprising:

retrieving, by one or more processors of an information recommendation client and from a first server, text data provided by a user as chat content in a graphical user interface of a chat application and transmitted to the first server by the chat application to be processed before receiving a user input that is configured to transmit the text data to a member of a chat group, and wherein the text data is prefiltered based on a feature of a recommendation information before receiving the user input that is configured to transmit the text data to the member of the chat group;
