One embodiment provides a system for generating an inference model that determines an activity type for a user from contextual information. During operation, the system receives (302) a set of contextual information associated with the user, wherein the contextual information includes at least a set of location coordinates. The system then determines an association between the contextual information and an activity type. Next, the system generates an activity inference model based in part on the association, wherein the activity inference model takes an instance of contextual information as an input parameter and outputs a corresponding activity type. The model's parameters are based at least on statistics associated with the user's contextual history but not based on the complete contents of the user's contextual history. |
