FIG. 4a is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
Referring to FIG. 4a, according to various embodiments, a communication interface (for example, the sub-communication module 130) of an electronic device (for example, the electronic device 100) may receive a message from the outside in operation 401a.
For example, the message may include at least one of a text (SMS or MMS) message, a social networking service (SNS) message, an application notice message, and an e-mail message.
For example, the message may include text with at least one character, numeral, and/or symbol.
For example, the communication interface 130 may receive a message saying "1588-0000 [XX Telecom] Enter Authentication code [67625] for Identification".
According to various embodiments, a controller (for example, the controller 110) may obtain status information about the electronic device in operation 403a.
For example, the status information about the electronic device may include user status information indicating the status of a user and/or display status information indicating the status of a display.
For example, the controller 110 may sense that an external device (for example, an earphone) is connected to an earphone connector jack (for example, the earphone connector jack 167). If the external device is connected to the earphone connector jack 167, the controller 110 may display a screen asking the user whether the user is working out on a display (for example, the touch screen 190), and receive an input indicating that the user is working out from the user through the touch screen 190 or the I/O module 160. Then the controller 110 may obtain user status information indicating that the user is in a "workout status" based on the sensed information indicating the connection of the external device and the received user input. In another example, the controller 110 may receive acceleration information about the electronic device 100 from the senor module 170, and receive sensed information indicating that the external device (earphone) is connected to the earphone connector jack 167. The controller 110 may obtain user status information indicating whether the user carrying the electronic device 100 is walking or running from the accelerator information. Further, the controller 110 may determine whether an acceleration value is larger than a threshold. If determining that the acceleration value is larger than the threshold while the external device is connected to the earphone connector jack 167, the controller 110 may obtain user status information indicating that the user is "working out".
For example, if the user sets "drive mode" in an operation mode program that allows setting of an operation mode of the electronic device 100, the controller 110 may obtain user status information indicating that the user is in "driving".
For example, the controller 110 may obtain display status information indicating that a message is being displayed on the display (for example, the touch screen 190). For example, the controller 110 may obtain display status information indicating that the touch screen 190 is a "circular display". For example, the controller 110 may obtain display status information indicating that the touch screen 190 is a "rectangular display". For example, the controller 110 may obtain display status information indicating that a message is displayed in a "status bar". For example, the controller 110 may obtain display status information indicating that a message is displayed in a "notification window". A method for obtaining display status information will be described later with reference to FIG. 8a.
According to various embodiments, in operation 405a, the controller 110 may determine a notification scheme for notifying the user of the message based on the received message and/or the status information.
For example, the controller 110 may determine a first notification scheme and a second notification scheme to notify the user of a first message based on different senders extracted from the message. For example, the controller 110 may determine the first notification scheme to notify the user of the first message based on a first message type extracted from the first message, and the second notification scheme to notify the user of the first message based on a second message type extracted from the first message. For example, the controller 110 may determine the first notification scheme to notify the user of the first message based on first user status information, and the second notification scheme to notify the user of the first message based on second user status information. For example, the controller 110 may determine the first notification scheme to notify the user of the first message based on first display status information, and the second notification scheme to notify the user of the first message based on second display status information.
Now, a description will be given of a method for determining a notification scheme according to various embodiments with reference to Table 1.
Table 1 lists message types, status information (user status information and display status information), importance levels of senders, and notification schemes corresponding to the importance levels.
| Classification | Message type | Status information | Sender | Importance level | Notification scheme |
| 1 | | Sleep, earphone | | Low | Ignore |
| 2 | Advertisement_discount | Earphone | | Medium | Voice |
| 3 | Advertisement | Earphone | AA | Medium | Voice |
| 4 | Instant_message | Earphone | Wife | High | Voice, Stop the others tasks |
| 5 | Instant_message | Earphone | | Medium | Voice |
| 6 | Delivery_scheduled | Earphone | | High | Voice, Stop the others tasks |
For example, status information may include information about a user status, connection information indicating whether an external device is connected, and information about the display status of a connected external device or the electronic device.
For example, the controller 110 may determine whether the external device is connected to the electronic device 100 based on the connection information about the external device. If the external device is connected to the electronic device 100, the controller 110 may obtain information about the display status of the external device, and determine a notification scheme based on the information about the display status of the external device.
For example, the controller 110 may determine that the external device is not connected to the electronic device 100, based on the connection information about the external device, obtain information about the display status of the electronic device 100 instead of the external device, and determine a notification scheme for a message based on the display status information about the electronic device 100.
As illustrated in Table 1, for example, the controller 110 may determine a message type from the message, extract status information from status information of each sensor and/or operation mode program log information in the electronic device 100, and determine a sender from a sender number of the message.
For example, the controller 110 may determine the importance level of the message to be "Low", "Medium", or "High" based on the obtained message type, status information, and/or sender.
For example, if the controller 110 fails to determine the message type, the controller 110 may determine the importance level of the message to be "Low".
For example, if the message type is determined to be "advertisement_discount", "advertisement", or "instant_message", the controller 110 may determine the importance level of the message to be "Medium".
For example, if the sender is determined to be "wife", the controller 110 may determine the importance level of the message to be "High".
For example, if the message type is determined to be "delivery_scheduled", the controller 110 may determine the importance level of the message to be "High".
For example, the controller 110 may select at least one of "ignore", "voice", and "stop the others tasks" as the notification scheme for the message, based on the determined importance level.
For example, if the importance level of the message is determined to be "Low", the controller 110 may determine "ignore" as the notification scheme for the message.
For example, if the importance level of the message is determined to be "Medium", the controller 110 may determine "voice" as the notification scheme for the message.
For example, if the importance level of the message is determined to be "High", the controller 110 may determine "voice" and "stop the others tasks" as the notification scheme for the message.
While not included in Table 1, when the display status is a "circular" display of a first size, the controller 110 may determine the length of a message to be output on the "circular" display to be smaller than when the display status is a "rectangular" display of a second size larger than the first size.
According to various embodiments, the controller 110 may convert the message to a summary message based on the notification scheme in order to output the message in the determined notification scheme in operation 407a. For example, if determining the notification scheme of the message to be "voice", the controller 110 may convert the message to a summary message of colloquial style. For example, if determining the notification scheme of the message to be "brief", the controller 110 may convert the message to a summary message including only important information of the contents of the message and output the summary message, in order to output the message in the determined notification scheme, "brief".
For example, after generating the summary message, the controller 110 may output the generated summary message through an output module (for example, the I/O module 160).
FIG. 4b is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
According to various embodiments, an electronic device (for example, the electronic device 100) may receive a message from the outside through a communication interface (for example, the sub-communication module 130) in operation 401b.
For example, the message may be received from the outside in the same manner as in operation 401a of FIG. 4a.
According to various embodiments, a controller (for example, the controller 110) may extract a sender from the message received through the communication interface 130 in operation 403b.
For example, the controller 110 may determine a sender using a sender number of a text message. For example, regarding a message saying "1588-0000 [XX Telecom] Enter Authentication code [67625] for Identification, " the sender "XX Telecom" may be extracted using the sender number of the message, "1588-0000". For example, the controller 110 may extract the sender "XX Telecom" corresponding to the sender number "1588-0000" in a sender list included in a directory database stored in a storage (for example, the storage 175) of the electronic device 100. For example, the controller 110 may detect the sender "XX Telecom" corresponding to the sender number "1588-0000" on the Internet.
For example, the controller 110 may extract a sender from another user account of an SNS message.
For example, the controller 110 may extract a sender from the name of an application which is a provider of an application notice message.
For example, the controller 110 may extract a sender from a sender account of an e-mail message.
According to various embodiments, the controller 110 may extract important information from the message in operation 405b.
For example, the controller 110 may analyze text included in the message, using a natural language analysis method for messages, and extract important information predetermined as frequently used by a user or as needed for a user, based on the analysis result of the text.
For example, regarding the message "1588-0000 [XX Telecom] Enter Authentication code [67625] for Identification", the controller 110 may extract text "1588-0000", "[XX Telecom]", "Enter", "Authentication code", "[67625]", "for", and "Identification" from the message by basic morpheme analysis, identify at least one of "date information", "time information", "money amount information", "invoice number", "reservation number", "authentication code", and "sender" which have been predetermined as important information needed for the user, and thus extract important information, "[XX Telecom]" (sender) and "[67625]" (authentication code).
According to various embodiments, the controller 110 may determine a message type from the message in operation 407b.
For example, the controller 110 may analyze the text included in the message by a natural language analysis method for messages and determine the message type based on the result of the text analysis.
