Abstract
Methods and systems for inferring performance include a chain graph that has multiple nodes, one or more of which has a known value at a first timestamp. A value associated with a first node at the first timestamp influences a value associated with a second node connected to the first node by an edge at the first timestamp. Each node has an associated chain that represents values of the node at different timestamps. Known values of each node in the graph are propagated within each timestamp to all neighboring nodes. Known values of each node in the graph are propagated across different timestamps.
