  • Publication number: 20250047919
    Abstract: A method for facilitating streamer interaction with a viewer includes extracting a history topic based on an activity record of the viewer; calculating a score of each of the history topics based on at least one parameter; and generating a topic suggestion based on the history topic and the score which is corresponding to the history topic, and providing the topic suggestion to the streamer. The method is suitable for providing a topic suggestion (or interact topic suggestion) with respect to the viewer to the streamer via a live-streaming platform executed by a computing device. Thereby, the method can be used for facilitating streamer interaction with viewers and provides an appropriate topic suggestion. In addition, a computing device and a computer-readable storage medium which are capable of implementing the method are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20240380936
    Abstract: A server for managing streams in a live streaming platform, comprising one or a plurality of processors, wherein the one or plurality of processors execute a machine-readable instruction to perform: receiving a first stream from a user terminal of a user; determining whether the first stream satisfied a first category; and adding the first stream into the first category in response to the first stream matching the first category. According to the embodiments, it is easier to generate and maintain the category of the stream. Moreover, the category of streams may be added, updated, modified or removed dynamically without complicated procedure. Therefore, the quality of streams in the live streaming platform may be improved.
