PREDICTING THE FUTURE STATE OF A MOBILE DEVICE USER

摘要

In one embodiment, a computing system receives an indication of current mobile device usage by a user. The user is also associated with one or more past user states that are accessible to the computing system. The computing system selects a future user state of the user based on a calculated probability of a possible future user state. The possible future user state is calculated based on the current mobile-device usage and the past user states. For each past user states, a weight based on a time delay factor is used. Based on the selected future user state, the operation of a mobile device of the user is adapted at the future time corresponding to the future user state.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
by one or more computing devices, receiving an indication of a current mobile-device usage by a user; by the one or more computing devices, accessing information about one or more past user states of the user; by the one or more computing devices, selecting a future user state of the user based on a calculated probability of a possible future user state, the possible future user state being calculated based on the current mobile-device usage and the past user states, wherein each of the past user states is weighted by a time decay factor; and by the one or more computing devices, adapting, at a future time corresponding to the selected future user state, the operation of a mobile device of the user.
