Abstract

Since smart phones with diverse functionalities become the general trend, many context-aware services have been studied and launched. The services exploit a variety of contextual information in the mobile environment. Even though it has attempted to infer activities using a mobile device, it is difficult to infer human activities from uncertain, incomplete and insufficient mobile contextual information. We present a method to infer a person's activities from mobile contexts using hierarchically structured Bayesian networks. Mobile contextual information collected for one month is used to evaluate the method. The results show the usefulness of the proposed method.
