1. A system for improving vehicle efficiency of a vehicle comprising:

  • a power source configured to generate power usable to propel the vehicle;

    a memory configured to store;

    an event that is predicted to occur,an action to be performed by the power source to increase efficiency of the power source during the stored event, anda mis-prediction counter corresponding to a quantity of times a prediction of the stored event was incorrect; and

    an electronic control unit (ECU) coupled to the power source and the memory and configured to;

    predict that the stored event will occur,control the power source to take the action when the stored event is predicted to occur,increase the mis-prediction counter if the prediction was inaccurate, andadjust at least one of the stored event that is predicted to occur, the stored action to be performed by the power source, or a prediction horizon of the prediction when the mis-prediction counter reaches or exceeds a threshold quantity of mis-predictions in order to increase the efficiency of the power source during a subsequent prediction of the stored event.
