1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, by a processor, a user input at a device for specifying a context;

    causing, by one or more sensors, recording of context information associated with the device, the user of the device, or a combination thereof, wherein the recorded context information includes sensory information of the device and user interaction information with one or more services associated with the device;

    updating, by the processor, a context information training database with the recorded context information;

    associating, by the processor, the recorded context information with the context;

    causing, at least in part, monitoring of unlabeled context information associated with the device, the user of the device, or a combination thereof;

    comparing the unlabeled context information against the recorded context information;

    causing, at least in part, recognition of the context associated with the unlabeled context information based, at least in part, on the comparison;

    generating a context model based, at least in part, on the recorded context information;

    generating a behavior model, independent of the context model, based at least in part, on the recorded context information,wherein the associating of the recorded context information with the context comprises at least in part associating the context model with the context, andwherein the recognition of the context in the unlabeled context information is based, at least in part, on the context model.
