Abstract: A network system, such as a transport management system, infers movement and a location of a vehicle associated with a transportation service using sensor data from a provider client device and a wireless device mounted in a fixed position in the vehicle. Before or during a transportation service, the provider client device transmits sensor data to the network system for use in detecting the occurrence of one or more specified events, such as a sudden deceleration or a harsh turn. The network system fuses the received sensor data to infer the movement of the vehicle along forward, lateral, and vertical axes and implements an event detector by analyzing movement of the vehicle in the forward direction. Fused sensor data received from the wireless device is used to validate the detected movement and to determine a position of the vehicle.

Abstract: A system and method for efficiently and accurately classifying user activity. In a non-limiting example, accelerometer signals and/or gyroscope sensor signals may be analyzed to classify user activity, for example, that of a user of a handheld and/or wearable device. Information from additional sources and sensors (e.g., other inertial sensors, non-inertial sensors, passive sensors, etc.) may also be utilized.
