Abstract
A time of occurrence of an interest event of multiple events is anticipated based on time intervals between at least two previously occurring events and a previous occurrence of the interest event and based on a new occurrence of at least one of the events. For a respective event, multiple inter-event interval pairs based on occurrence times of pairs of respective remaining events relative to an occurrence time of the respective event are memorized. For a respective event, a time of future occurrence of the interest event from the respective event is predicted based on the inter-event interval pairs that have been memorized. The predicted time of future occurrence is also based on the new occurrence of the respective event and at least one of the events to obtain multiple interest event predictions of times of future occurrences of the interest event. The predictions are processed to generate an anticipated time when the interest event will occur in the future. A user is presented at least one of the interest event predictions and/or the anticipated time when the interest event will occur in the future.
