Method and apparatus for a predictive tracking device
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- at a processor and a digital data storage connected thereto, collecting a first training set of values of a user state for a first sequence of times and a second training set of values of an environmental state for a temporally overlapping second sequence of times;
determining a future time and an identified location based on a calendar entry; and
retrieving at least one forecasted value of the environmental state based on the future point in time and the identified location; and
determining, by the processor in cooperation with the digital data storage, a value of the user state at the future time based on the at least one forecasted value of the environmental state and the collected first and second training sets.

Abstract
A predictive tracking method and apparatus utilizing objective and subjective data in order to predict user states is provided herein. For example, some such embodiments may allow a user to track their mood or health symptoms in relation to retrieved data regarding their environmental in order to reveal patterns that can help forecast and proactively manage mood or health symptoms.

24. A non-transitory digital data storage medium encoding a machine-executable program of instructions to perform a method, the method comprising:
-
collecting a first training set of values of a user state for a first sequence of times and a second training set of values of an environmental state for a temporally overlapping second sequence of times; determining a future time and an identified location based on a calendar entry; and retrieving at least one forecasted value of the environmental state based on the future point in time and the identified location; and determining a value of the user at the future time based on the at least one forecasted value of the environmental state and the collected first and second training sets. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A method for determining a user state at a future time, the method comprising:
-
at a processor and a digital data storage connected thereto, collecting a first training set of values of a user state for a first sequence of times and a second training set of values of an environmental state for a temporally overlapping second sequence of times; retrieving, by the processor in cooperation with the digital data storage, at least one forecasted value of the environmental state associated with the future time; and determining, by the processor in cooperation with the digital data storage, a value of the user state at the future time based on the at least one forecasted value of the environmental state and the collected first and second training sets; wherein the at least one forecasted value of the environmental state includes a noise measurement.
