This paper adapts look-ahead and backward finite difference formulas to compute future eigenvectors and eigenvalues of piecewise smooth time-varying symmetric matrix flows A(t). It is based on the Zhang Neural Network (ZNN) model for time-varying problems and uses the associated error function E(t) = A(t)V(t) - V(t) D(t) or ei(t) = A(t)vi(t) -\lai(t)vi(t) with the Zhang design stipulation that E(t) = - ηE(t) or ei(t) = - ηei(t) with η> 0 so that E(t) and e(t) decrease exponentially over time. This leads to a discrete-time differential equation of the form P(tk) z(tk) = q(tk) for the eigendata vector z(tk) of A(tk). Convergent look-ahead finite difference formulas of varying error orders then allow us to express z(tk+1) in terms of earlier A and z data. Numerical tests, comparisons and open questions complete the paper.
