Abstract: An invoice or other document is automatically classified, for example to identify a vendor or other entity associated with the document, based on geometric characteristics of the document. Geometric information extracted from incoming images of documents is used to reconstruct a unique template, thereby providing a mechanism for automatically classifying newly received documents, for example to determine which vendor is their source. The template for a target document is expressed as a feature vector, which can then be compared with feature vectors previously generated for reference documents, to provide a basis for determining similarity between the target document and various reference documents.

Abstract: Aspects described herein may relate to a transaction exchange platform using a streaming data platform (SDP) and microservices to process transactions in accordance with corresponding workflows. The transaction exchange platform may receive transactions from origination sources, which may be added to the SDP as transaction objects. Microservices on the transaction exchange platform may interact with the transaction objects based on configured workflows associated with the transactions. Further, the microservices may leverage machine-learning models to determine whether transaction objects may be more effectively processed using alternative or secondary workflows. Processing on the transaction exchange platform may facilitate clearing and settlement of transactions. Some aspects may provide for dynamic and flexible reconfiguration of workflows.

Abstract: A method of constructing an injection well for a geothermal energy system comprising determining a fracture area of an injection well with a curved wellbore by inputting the curved wellbore path, a set of formation properties, and a fracturing operation, into a fracturing model. The curved wellbore path can promote fracture interference between fracture stresses extending from the injection wellbore. A production model can determine an economic value of the production fluids produced from at least one production well by determining a contact time for the injection fluids to traverse the formation. A design process can iterate the curved wellbore path of the injection well to produce a production fluid with an economic value above a threshold value.
