Identifying an entity associated with wireless network access point

摘要

Systems and methods for identifying an entity associated with a wireless network access point are provided. An estimated location of a wireless network access point and a network name associated with a wireless network access point can be accessed. The network name can be analyzed to identify at least one text signal. An entity associated with the wireless network access point can be identified based at least in part on the text signal. For instance, a confidence score for a plurality of candidate entities identified using the estimated location of the wireless network access point can be determined based on the text signal. The confidence score can be used to identify the entity associated with the wireless network access point. Information associated with the entity can be presented in a graphical user interface.

1. A computer-implemented method of identifying an entity associated with a wireless network access point, comprising:
accessing, by one or more computing devices, an estimated location of a wireless network access point; accessing, by the one or more computing devices, a network name associated with the wireless network access point; analyzing, by the one or more computing devices, the network name using textual analysis techniques to identify at least one text signal, the at least one text signal comprising a set of one or more characters; identifying, by the one or more computing devices, an entity associated with the wireless network access point based at least in part on the text signal and the estimated location of the wireless access point, the entity identified based at least in part by matching the text signal with at least a portion of a semantic entity name corresponding to the entity associated with the wireless network access point; providing, by the one or more computing devices, the semantic entity name associated with the entity for display in a graphical user interface.
