DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATICALLY GENERATING EXCITEMENT LEVELS WITH IMPROVED RESPONSE TIMES USING PROSPECTIVE DATA

摘要

A data processing system automatically generates excitement levels with improved response times using prospective data. One embodiment includes accessing data that provides state information for an event at different times during the event, automatically generating a plurality of excitement levels based on the accessed data, and reporting the generated excitement levels. Each of the excitement levels of the plurality of excitement levels corresponds to a different sample time during the event. For each sample time, the generating of the plurality of excitement levels comprises calculating an excitement level based on accessed data prior in time to the sample time and accessed data subsequent in time to the sample time.
