Abstract

A method includes receiving a first value for each of a plurality of parameters, each of the first values being associated with a user and a first day. The method also includes receiving a second value for each of the plurality of parameters, each of the second values being associated with the user and a second day that is subsequent to the first day. The method also includes determining, for each of the plurality of parameters, a trend indication. The method also includes determining a base weight value for each of the plurality of parameters and multiple pairs of the plurality of parameters. The method also includes causing a message to be communicated to the user that is based at least in part on the determined base weight values.
