  • Patent number: 11032391
    Abstract: A method, system and computer-readable storage medium for grouping users of an online social network application are provided. The method includes: acquiring friend relation data of a first user, the friend relation data comprising one or more friend nodes; determining a weight of each of the friend nodes based on the friend relation data acquired; forming a first friend circle with a first friend node having a greatest weight among the friend nodes; traversing the friend nodes to find an optimum friend of the first friend circle; adding the optimum friend into the first friend circle; and repeating the traversing and adding until all optimum friends of the first friend circle are added into the first friend circle. The method determines the weight of each friend node based on the friend relation data and performs grouping by the weights, which is able to conduct as mart grouping with high speed, low throughput, and high efficiency.

  • Publication number: 20140304180
    Abstract: A method and system for dividing a user's social network relationship circle is disclosed. The method includes generating relevancy attribute information between friends of a first user according to social information of the first user's friends. A level of closeness between the friends according to the relevancy attribute information is acquired. The friends with the level of closeness greater than a first threshold are associated with a same relationship circle of the first user. The above method divides the friends of the user who have a high degree of closeness to the same relationship circle automatically. Thus, the efficiency of managing the social network for users is improved.
