extrapolated
Guessed from trends
Extrapolated means extended or projected beyond known data.
To extrapolate is to estimate unknown values by assuming existing trends continue: Scientists extrapolated from current warming rates to predict future temperatures.
More broadly, it means to infer or deduce from what is known: She extrapolated his mood from his terse replies.
The word suggests reaching conclusions that go beyond direct evidence.
