Creating a place type filter for the Place Autocomplete API for Android

Question

This API seems to be fairly new so there aren't many questions about it here, nor many tutorials.

I followed Google's tutorial and got the Autocomplete Android api working in my app. I'm now trying to use the AutocompleteFilter to restrict my results to a certain region or certain types of places.

There seems to be little to no documentation for a beginner like me explaining what to do.

The AutocompleteFilter requires a Collection object. How do I change the the following values into integers?

Problem was solved by a Google employee himself whom I contacted via our Maps for Work support portal.

Here's a list of Place Types with their integer counterparts.

These can be used to filter the Android Place Autocomplete API.
