Patent number: 11470443Abstract: In an example method, a computer system receives a query from a mobile device, including an indication of a location of the mobile device, and an environmental measurement obtained by the mobile device at the location. A set of candidate points of interest in geographical proximity to the location is determined. For each of one or more candidate points of interest of the set, a location fingerprint of the candidate point of interest and contextual data regarding the candidate point of interest are obtained. A similarity between the environmental measurement and each location fingerprint is determined. A particular candidate point of interest is selected from among the set based on the similarity, and based on an assessment of the contextual data. A label of the selected point of interest is associated with the location and transmitted to the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2019Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Richard B. Warren, Danil Yuryevich Zvyagintsev, Michael P. Dal Santo, Liviu T. Popescu, Pejman Lotfali Kazemi, Hyo Jeong Shin, Zehua Zhou

Patent number: 10108748Abstract: Crowd-sourced localized application usage data is collected from mobile devices at a usage location and sent to a network-based service. The network-based service analyzes the data to determine a single most relevant application correlated to the usage location. Once the most relevant application is determined, a recommendation for the application is sent to client devices operating at the usage location. In some implementations the data is processed to determine whether the usage location is a chained venue, a large venue or an event. Once the usage location has been determined, the most relevant application can be selected for recommendation.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2014Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Lukas M.
