Abstract
Systems and methods are presented for generating a transition graph from check-in data for determining probabilistic transitions of a user from an origin (location) to a destination. Check-in data for a plurality of users is obtained. The check-in data is organized and analyzed to determine a set of transition tuples for each of the plurality of users. These transition tuples are aggregated and used to generate a transition graph comprising a plurality of nodes and edges. Each node corresponds to a location and each edge indicates a transition from an origin node to a destination node and is associated with a likelihood of a user transitioning from the origin node to the destination node.
