Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 24:
25. One or more computer-readable storage media storing instructions that are executable by a computing device to perform operations comprising:
receiving data describing glucose measurements of a user;
predicting glucose values for the user during a future time period based on the data;
determining that at least one predicted glucose value satisfies a threshold value for an alert, the alert being associated with a prediction horizon that defines how far into the future time period the predicted glucose values are considered relative to the threshold value;
causing output of the alert responsive to determining that the at least one predicted glucose value satisfies the threshold value within the prediction horizon, relative to a current time;
receiving additional data describing observed glucose measurements during the future time period;
comparing one or more of the predicted glucose values with one or more of the observed glucose measurements during the future time period;
modifying the prediction horizon based on a difference between the one or more of the observed glucose measurements and the one or more of the predicted glucose values; and
causing output of a subsequent instance of the alert based on the modified prediction horizon.
