Errm, what? "Not easily definable"? Based on what?
I've just opened FR24 and in less than one second I can tell that they're currently doing Westerly ops, which isn't a surprise.
Arrivals: 27L Departures: 27R
You don't need to "predict" what they're doing, you just need to look at where the aircraft lining up to land, and (on the other runway) where they're departing from.
(Full disclosure: have done many hundreds of LHR flights over the years...)
