Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes determining a geo-location centroid of each of one or more geo-location clusters. The geo-location centroid corresponds to one or more geo-location data points within its geo-location cluster. The geo-location data points represent one or more location readings from a mobile computing device associated with a user. The geo-location centroids are based at least in part on location readings obtained during a particular time of day of a particular day of a week. The method also includes grouping one or more geo-location centroids into one or more groups; and determining a time-based routine based at least in part on a number of geo-location centroids within each group.
