Class MobilityClassification

MobilityClassification(*, locations: List[flowmachine.features.utilities.subscriber_locations.BaseLocation], stay_length_threshold: int = 3)

Source: flowmachine/features/subscriber/mobility_classification.py

Based on subscribers' reference locations in a sequence of reference periods, classify each subscriber as having one of the following mobility types (the assigned label corresponds to the first of these criteria that is true for a given subscriber): - 'unlocated': Subscriber has a NULL location in the most recent period - 'irregular': Subscriber is not active in at least one of the reference periods - 'not_always_locatable': Subscriber has a NULL location in at least one of the reference periods - 'mobile': Subscriber spent fewer than 'stay_length_threshold' consecutive periods at any single location - 'stable': Subscriber spent at least 'stay_length_threshold' consecutive periods at the same location Only subscribers appearing in the result of the reference location query for the most recent period are included in the result of this query (i.e. subscribers absent from the query result can be assumed to fall into a sixth category: "not active in the most recent period").

Parameters

• locations: typing.List

  List of reference location queries, each returning a single location per subscriber (or NULL location for subscribers that are active but unlocatable). The list is assumed to be sorted into ascending chronological order.

• stay_length_threshold: int, default 3

  Minimum number of consecutive periods over which a subscriber's location must remain the same for that subscriber to be classified as 'stable'.
