    Abstract: A mobile device can provide predictive user assistance based on various sensor readings, independently of or in addition to a location of the mobile device. The mobile device can determine a context of an event. The mobile device can store the context and a label of the event on a storage device. The label can be provided automatically by the mobile device or by the external system without user input. At a later time, the mobile device can match new sensor readings with the stored context. If a match is found, the mobile device can predict that the user is about to perform the action or recognize that the user has performed the action again. The mobile device can perform various operations, including, for example, providing user assistance, based on the prediction or recognition.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and program products for providing services to a user by a mobile device based on the user's daily routine of movement. The mobile device determines whether a location cluster indicates a significant location for the user based on one or more hints that indicate an interest of the user in locations in the cluster. The mobile device can perform adaptive clustering to determine a size of area of the significant location based on how multiple locations converge in the location cluster. The mobile device can provide location-based services for calendar items, including predicting a time of arrival at an estimated location of a calendar item. The mobile device can provide various services related to a location of the mobile device or a significant location of the user through an application programming interface (API).

    Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products for user settlement detection are disclosed. A mobile device configured to perform an action immediately upon entering or exiting a geofenced environment can delay performing the action until a user of the mobile device has settled into the environment. The mobile device can detect a settled user state by observing the environment of the mobile device, including measuring one or more environment variables using one or more sensors of the mobile device. The mobile device can detect a settled user state even when the mobile device is in motion. The mobile device can perform the action upon detecting a settled user state.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for determining transit routes through crowd-sourcing, for determining an estimated time of arrival (ETA) of a vehicle of the transit route at a given location, and for providing predictive reminders to a user for catching a vehicle of the transit route. A server receives signal source information about wireless signal sources detected by user devices, including information about a first wireless signal source detected by some devices. The server determines that the first wireless signal source is moving. The server determines that the first wireless signal source is associated with a public transit route upon determining that the signal source information satisfies one or more selection criteria. The server stores information associating the first wireless signal source with the public transit route as transit movement data corresponding to the public transit route.

    Abstract: Techniques for modeling significant locations are described. A significant location can be a location that is significant to a user of a mobile device for a variety of reasons. The mobile device can determine that a place or region is a significant location upon determining that, with sufficient certainty, the mobile device has stayed at the place or region for a sufficient amount of time. The mobile device can construct a state model that is an abstraction of one or more significant locations. The state model can include states representing the significant locations, and transitions representing movement of the mobile device between the locations. The mobile device can use the state model to provide predictive user assistance.
