1. A method of generating interpolation templates, comprising: accessing a set of historical interpolation results representing sets of interpolated input data derived from historical sets of operative data; accessing a set of extraction rules to apply to the set of historical interpolation results to generate a set of interpolation templates; applying the set of extraction rules to the set of interpolation templates to extract at least one interpolation template corresponding to a current set of combined input data comprising at least a set of predetermined input data and a set of target output data; applying the at least one interpolation template to the set of current combined input data to generate a template-derived set of interpolated input data; and initiating further interpolation operations based on the template-derived set of interpolated input data.
