HELPING PEOPLE WITH THEIR HEALTH
First Claim
1. A method comprisingon successive occasions over a period of time, gathering measured data and self-reported data that represent a health state of a particular participant in a health goal system,using the gathered data in a machine learning engine to select, for a current occasion, a current intervention to be self-applied by the particular participant,the machine learning engine having learned from data gathered from a group of participants on successive occasions, effectiveness of sequences of self-applied interventions in improving the health states of participants who belong to respective groups that share similar characteristics,the current intervention being expected to affect, for the particular participant (i) a behavior, (ii) the health state, or (iii) a health awareness, andproviding the particular participant, electronically through a user interface, information that will encourage the particular participant to engage in the selected self-applied current intervention.

Abstract
Among other things, a method includes, on successive occasions over a period of time, gathering measured data and self-reported data that represent a health state of a particular participant in a health goal system, using the gathered data in a machine learning engine to select, for a current occasion, a current intervention to be self-applied by the particular participant, the machine learning engine having learned from data gathered from a group of participants on successive occasions, the effectiveness of sequences of self-applied interventions in improving the health states of participants who belong to respective groups that share similar characteristics, the current intervention being expected to affect, for the particular participant (i) a behavior, (ii) the health state, or (iii) a health awareness, and providing the particular participant, electronically through a user interface, information that will encourage the particular participant to engage in the selected self-applied current intervention.

-
9. A method comprising
providing a particular participant, electronically through a user interface, intervention messages that will encourage the particular participant to engage in a selected self-applied current intervention, the intervention messages based on data gathered from a group of participants on successive occasions, the data indicating effectiveness of sequences of self-applied interventions in improving health states of participants who belong to respective groups that share similar characteristics.

16. A method comprising
using a machine learning engine to select, for a current occasion, a current intervention to be self-applied by a particular participant, the machine learning engine having learned from data gathered from a group of participants on successive occasions, effectiveness of sequences of self-applied interventions in improving health states of participants who belong to respective groups that share similar characteristics, the current intervention being expected to affect, for the particular participant (i) a behavior, (ii) the health state, or (iii) an health awareness.
-
21. A system comprising
a processor to, on successive occasions over a period of time, gather measured data and self-reported data that represent a health state of a particular participant in a health goal system, a machine learning engine configured to use the gathered data to select, for a current occasion, a current intervention to be self-applied by the particular participant, the machine learning engine having learned from data gathered from a group of participants on successive occasions, effectiveness of sequences of self-applied interventions in improving the health states of participants who belong to respective groups that share similar characteristics, the current intervention being expected to affect, for the particular participant (i) a behavior, (ii) the health state, or (iii) a health awareness, and a communications interface configured to electronically provide to a user interface, viewable by the particular participant, information that will encourage the particular participant to engage in the selected self-applied current intervention.
-
29. A system comprising
a communications interface configured to electronically provide to a user interface, viewable by a particular participant, intervention messages that will encourage the particular participant to engage in a selected self-applied current intervention, the intervention messages based on data gathered from a group of participants on successive occasions, the data indicating effectiveness of sequences of self-applied interventions in improving health states of participants who belong to respective groups that share similar characteristics.
-
36. A system comprising
a machine learning engine configured to select, for a current occasion, a current intervention to be self-applied by a particular participant, the machine learning engine having learned from data gathered from a group of participants on successive occasions, effectiveness of sequences of self-applied interventions in improving health states of participants who belong to respective groups that share similar characteristics, the current intervention being expected to affect, for the particular participant (i) a behavior, (ii) the health state, or (iii) a health awareness.
