Challenge question: Number sequences!?

Here are some number sequences I thought up. See if you can find the next number, and also identify the pattern.

Sequence 1:

1, 3, 4, 7, 6, 12, 8, 15, 13, ?

Sequence 2:

100, 19, 83, 34, 70, 45, ?

Sequence 3:

1, 1, 0, -1, 0, 7, 28, 79, 192, ?

Sequence 4:

2, 5, 10, 17, 28, 41, 58, 77, 100, ?

The numbers in the sequence may or may not depend on the previous number.
