Instant messaging application configuration based on virtual world activities
A co-user list may be configured based on user interaction in a virtual world environment. A first user may be enabled to navigate the virtual world environment using an instant messenger application that includes the co-user list. A second user that is located proximate to the first user in the virtual world environment may be detected. An attribute associated with the second user may be determined. The co-user list may be configured based on the attribute associated with the second user.
1. A computer-implemented method of translating activities performed by at least one processor, comprising:
receiving, by a processing device, a request to authenticate a client device of a user;
receiving, by the processing device, a set of data from a first communication system comprising a virtual reality environment, the set of data including one or more first paralinguistic indicators associated with the user;
parsing, by the processing device, the one or more first paralinguistic indicators including an intensity of an emotion or sentiment of the user on an intensity spectrum for each of the one or more first paralinguistic indicators;
determining whether one of the first communication system and a second communication system comprising a textual environment use communication protocols or formats that are incompatible with each other;
based on a determination that the first communication system and the second communication system use communication protocols or formats that are incompatible with each other, converting, by the processing device, the first paralinguistic indicators into one or more XML-based intermediate paralinguistic indicators based on the intensity of the emotion or sentiment of the user on the intensity spectrum for each of the one or more first paralinguistic indicators; and
converting the one or more XML-based intermediate paralinguistic indicators into one or more second paralinguistic indicators.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising generating a text message based on the one or more XML-based intermediate paralinguistic indicators.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the text message comprises an instant message.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , wherein the text message comprises an emoticon.
5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the intensity spectrum specifies expressions through speech, facial expressions, or specific body gestures.
6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the intensity is specified numerically.
7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the intermediate paralinguistic indicators comprise one or more complex-emotion tags comprising multiple sub-emotion tags; and
wherein the complex-emotion tags specify intensity numerically by adjusting numerical values of parameters corresponding to the complex-emotion tags.
8. A system for translating activities performed by at least one processor, comprising:
a storage medium storing a set of instructions; and
a processor configured to execute the set of instructions to perform operations including:
receiving, by a processing device, a request to authenticate a client device of a user;
receiving, by the processing device, a set of data from a first communication system comprising a virtual reality environment, the set of data including one or more first paralinguistic indicators associated with the user;
parsing, by the processing device, the one or more first paralinguistic indicators including an intensity of an emotion or sentiment of the user on an intensity spectrum for each of the one or more first paralinguistic indicators;
determining whether one of the first communication system and a second communication system comprising a textual environment use communication protocols or formats that are incompatible with each other;
based on a determination that the first communication system and the second communication system use communication protocols or formats that are incompatible with each other, converting, by the processing device, the first paralinguistic indicators into one or more XML-based intermediate paralinguistic indicators based on the intensity of the emotion or sentiment of the user on the intensity spectrum for each of the one or more first paralinguistic indicators; and
converting the one or more XML-based intermediate paralinguistic indicators into one or more second paralinguistic indicators.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations performed by the processor further comprise:
generating a text message based on the intermediate paralinguistic indicators.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the text message comprises an instant message.
11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the text message comprises an emoticon.
12. The system of claim 8 , wherein the intensity spectrum specifies expressions through speech, facial expressions, or specific body gestures.
13. The system of claim 8 , wherein the intensity is specified numerically.
14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the intermediate paralinguistic indicators comprise one or more complex-emotion tags comprising multiple sub-emotion tags; and
wherein the complex-emotion tags specify intensity numerically by adjusting numerical values of parameters corresponding to the complex-emotion tags.
15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, perform a method of translating activities, the method comprising:
receiving, by a processing device, a request to authenticate a client device of a user;
receiving, by the processing device, a set of data from a first communication system comprising a virtual reality environment, the set of data including one or more first paralinguistic indicators associated with the user;
parsing, by the processing device, the one or more first paralinguistic indicators including an intensity of an emotion or sentiment of the user on an intensity spectrum for each of the one or more first paralinguistic indicators;
determining whether one of the first communication system and a second communication system comprising a textual environment use communication protocols or formats that are incompatible with each other;
based on a determination that the first communication system and the second communication system use communication protocols or formats that are incompatible with each other, converting, by the processing device, the first paralinguistic indicators into one or more XML-based intermediate paralinguistic indicators based on the intensity of the emotion or sentiment of the user on the intensity spectrum for each of the one or more first paralinguistic indicators; and
converting the one or more XML-based intermediate paralinguistic indicators into one or more second paralinguistic indicators.
16. The computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the set of instructions further cause the processor to perform the following operation:
generating a text message based on the one or more XML-based intermediate paralinguistic indicators.
17. The computer-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the text message comprises an instant message.
18. The computer-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the intensity spectrum specifies expressions through speech, facial expressions, or specific body gestures.
