Abstract

Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for venue detection. In aspects, a mobile device comprising a set of sensors may collect and store sensor data from in response to a detected movement event or user interaction data. The sensor data may be used to generate a set of candidate venues corresponding to the location of the mobile device. The candidate venues may be provided to a venue detection system. The venue detection system may process the candidate venues to generate a set of features. The set of features may be applied to, and/or used to generate, one or more probabilistic models. The probabilistic models may generate confidence metrics for each of the candidate venues. In some aspects, the top ‘N’ venues may be selected from the set. The top ‘N’ venues may then be presented to the user and/or used to effect one or more actions.
