A system coordinates services between users and providers. The system trains a computer model to predict a user state of a user using data about past services. The prediction is based on data associated with a request submitted by a user. Request data can include current data about the user's behavior and information about the service that is independent of the particular user behavior or characteristics. The user behavior may be compared against the user's prior behavior to determine differences in the user behavior for this request and normal behavior of prior requests. The system can alter the parameters of a service based on the prediction about the state of the user requesting the service.

Predicting user state using machine learning

An optimization and recommendation engine can receive user location data to programmatically generate customized recommendations regarding the user's operation as a potential service provider for a network service. The optimization and recommendation engine can determine potential service routes based on the user location data indicating a frequent route of the user and on service data associated with the network service. The optimization and recommendation engine can also perform multivariate optimizations to select one or more optimal service routes from the potential service routes. The recommendations can include the one or more optimal service routes as well as parameters associated with such routes. The recommendations can further include a comparison of the parameters against characteristics of the user's frequent route.

System and method for performing multivariate optimizations based on location data

Examples provide for a computing system to obtain sensor data of one or more types, from one or more sensor components of a computing device associated with a user of the vehicle. The sensor data reflects an attribute of the vehicle's operation when the computing device is carried within or in proximity to the vehicle during the vehicle's operation. One or more characterizations may be determined for the vehicle based on the sensor data.

Vehicle monitoring system

A network computer system determines a driving ability of a driver using sensor data that is obtained from a mobile computing device of a driver. In some examples, the network computer system determines the driving ability by comparing the sensor data obtained from the mobile computing device of the driver with a set of sensor values that are based at least in part on sensor data obtained from one or more other drivers over a same or similar route.
