Method and apparatus for characterizing user behavior patterns from user interaction history

摘要

An approach is provided for characterizing user behavior patterns. The behavior pattern platform receives a plurality of context records from a device. Next, the behavior pattern platform places one or more contexts from the context records. Then, the behavior pattern platform places the contexts into one or more context groups. Then, the behavior pattern platform receives interaction data from the device, associates the context groups with the interaction data, and determines a behavior pattern based, at least in part, on the association of the context groups and the interaction data.
