Abstract
A system coupled to a packet-based network is configured to predict the locations of one or more mobile devices communicating with the packet-based network. The system comprises a request processor configured to detect location events associated with mobile devices communicating with the packet-based network, each location event corresponding to a time stamp and identifying a geo-place in a geo database. The system further comprises an off-line prediction subsystem configured to train a plurality of off-line prediction models and an on-line prediction model using various historical location events. The off-line prediction subsystem is further configured to generate off-line prediction results corresponding to the off-line prediction models. The system further comprises an on-line prediction subsystem configured to construct a feature vector using the off-line prediction results and recently detected location events in response to a request received in real-time, and to generate on-line prediction results by applying the on-line prediction model to the feature vector.
