Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a system or method that determines, based on consumption data and location information, groups of access portals, where the consumption data and the location information correspond to a time period in which the access portals are used to access a service using an account. The groups can be adjusted according to an intended benefit unit for the service and a sharing structure can be determined including benefit unit partitions for the account based on the adjusting. Factors can be determined, based on the benefit unit partitions, that are indicative of account sharing, as well as weights for the factors by applying a learning model to the consumption data. An intervention strategy can be selected from a group of intervention strategies according to the factors and the weights for the factors. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a system or method that collects or otherwise accesses information indicating connection patterns such as IP addresses being utilized by communication devices for communication services over a time period, where the communication devices use a same credential of a single account for accessing the communication services. Hubs can be identified according to groups of the communication devices that exhibit a particular sharing pattern such as having used the one or more common IP addresses. A prediction or estimation that the single account is engaging in sharing activity can be made based on an analysis of the hubs, such as based on a number of the hubs. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A base location associated with a user of a communication device can be determined. A location identifier component can determine the base location, such as a home location, of the user based on activity data and/or other data, wherein the activity data can be obtained from base stations with which the user's communication device communicates during a defined time period. The location identifier component can designate a defined area as the base location, wherein the defined area can be associated with the base station with which the communication device most frequently communicates during the defined time period or can be an area that is determined based on the activity data and the other data, in accordance with a defined location algorithm. To facilitate maintaining the privacy of users, the activity data can be anonymized and/or the granularity of defining the base location can be adjusted.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and products determine home locations of mobile devices. Times of usages of network base stations are summed to determine a dominant base station that is frequently used by a mobile device. The dominant base station is assigned as a home location for the mobile device.

Abstract: A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, determining a first linear model and a first log-linear model according to first explanatory variables and a first plurality of occupancy estimates, determining a second linear model and a second log-linear model according to second explanatory variables and a second plurality of occupancy estimates, evaluating, according to a location of a building, the first linear model, the first log-linear model, the second linear model, and the second log-linear model according to first values of the first explanatory variables and second values of the second explanatory variables, and combining results from the evaluating to generate a mixed occupancy estimate. Other embodiments are disclosed.
