Abstract

Location-based context is important for many applications.Previous systems offered only coarse room-level featuresor used manually specified room regions to determinefine-scale features. We propose a location context mechanismbased on activity maps, which defineregions of similarcontext based on observations of 3-D patterns of locationand motion in an environment. We describe an algorithmfor obtaining activity maps using the spatio-temporal clusteringof visual tracking data. We show how the recoveredmaps correspond to regions for common tasks in the environmentand describe their use in some applications.
