METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING AN AVERAGE WAIT TIME FOR USER ACTIVITIES BASED ON CONTEXTUAL SENSORS

摘要

A wait-queue modeling system facilitates computing a wait time for an activity type. During operation, the system obtains user-behavior events associated with one or more users waiting to perform an activity of a target activity type. The system can determine, based on the user-behavior events, activity-waiting attributes associated with users entering or leaving a waiting queue for an activity of the target activity type. The system then computes a wait time for the activity type based on the determined activity-waiting attributes.

1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
obtaining user-behavior events associated with one or more users waiting to perform an activity of a target activity type; determining activity-waiting attributes based on the user-behavior events, wherein a respective activity-waiting attribute indicates information associated with one or more users entering or leaving a waiting queue for an activity of the target activity type; and computing a wait time for the activity type based on the determined activity-waiting attributes.
