Abstract
The method comprises acquiring information from signals exchanged between a user's mobile computing devices and a plurality of Base Transceiver Stations, or BTSs, analyzing said acquired information for determining, over a period of time, the locations of said user's mobile computing device and deduce through a statistical model the points of interest, identifying and labelling at least part of said user's mobile computing device determined locations as points of interest.
Claims20
A method for automatic detection and labelling of user points of interest, comprising:
- d) acquiring information from signals exchanged between a user's mobile devices and a plurality of Base Transceiver Stations, or BTSs;
- e) analyzing said acquired information for determining, over a period of time, the locations of said user's mobile computing device based on the locations of the BTSs with which said signals exchange has occurred;
- and
- f) identifying and labelling at least part of said user's mobile computing device determined locations as points of interest at least on the basis of the number of times said user's mobile computing device has been at said determined locations over said period of time.
- wherein said steps b) and c) comprises applying said analysis and identification through a statistical model.
10 The method of claim 1, wherein said acquiring information of said step a) includes the number of said user mobile computing device, the date and time, and the BTS associated to said signals exchanged.
A method for automatic detection and labelling of user points of interest, comprising:
- a) acquiring information from signals extracted from a user's mobile computing device;
- b) analyzing said acquired information for determining, over a period of time, the locations of said user's mobile computing device;
- and
- c) identifying and labelling at least part of said user's mobile computing device determined locations as points of interest at least on the basis of the number of times said user's mobile computing device has been at said determined locations over said period of time
- the method being characterized in that:
- the signals extracted in step a) are signals exchanged between the user's mobile computing device and a plurality of Base Transceiver Stations, or BTSs;
- and
- the locations of the user's mobile computing device in step b) is based on the locations of the BTSs with which said signals exchange has occurred,
- wherein said steps b) and c) comprises applying said analysis and identification through a statistical model.
