  • Publication number: 20220403733
    Abstract: The accuracy of directional surveys may be improved using accelerometers, magnetometers, or both. A control system containing accelerometers is configured specifically to correct errors in bias and gain of each accelerometer by requiring the measured field strengths to be as constant as possible over several tool face angles over multiple points in a wellbore, even when all measurements are within a tangent or lateral section of a wellbore. Corrections for the bias and gain errors determined based on one or more measurements from the accelerometers are applied to measurements at other survey points to improve the accuracy of surveys and the efficiency of drilling operations.

  • Publication number: 20220405838
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an identity network that can provide a universal, digital identity for users that can be used to authenticate the user by an identity provider for relying parties. The identity network receives a request from a relying party that includes deep linking to an identity provider selected by the user. The request specifies the user as well as any other information about the user the relying party is requesting. A service of the identity network launches the application for the identity provider on the user's device using a software development kit. The user can log into the identity provider's application, which validates the user and provides the user authentication/validation and information about the user to the identity network. The identity network can then provide the indication of the user's authentication and the user information to the relying party.

  • Publication number: 20220406468
    Abstract: The ventricular myocardium in the heart is composed of three cell layer: endocardial, mid-myocardial and epicardial cells. A specific group of myocardial cells termed as M-cells exists in the deep sub-endocardium and mid-myocardium that have a longer action potential duration in comparison to other cell types. A method and system have been provided for analyzing cardiac activity by modelling myocardial cells (M-cells). The method comprises preparing a computational tool that will allow biologists to analyze and retrieve cardiac cellular information automatically and enable discovering of relationships between cellular and cardiovascular system utilizing the M-cells. The method is configured to understand how the properties of M-cells affect the generation of T-wave and how they contribute to arrhythmogenesis in short QT syndrome 2. Pseudo ECGs is created by exciting the tissue in order to analyze the morphology of the T-wave.

  • Publication number: 20220405603
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to system and method for determining explainability of machine predicted decisions. Typical explainable AI (XAI) solutions are limited by type of data processed, such as structured, semi-structured and unstructured text. In addition, due to limited automation of the process of explainability, typical systems are cumbersome and time-consuming. The system and method provide an end to end solution for automating the determination of explainability of machine predicted decisions. The XAI process output an absolute relevance score indicative of relevance of the features associated with the prediction which is indicative of percentage relevance/contribution of individual feature. The system further computes relative relevance score of the features by adding up all the features and calculating how much each individual feature is contributing to the total score. The relative relevance scores are utilized for determining explainability of decisions of the prediction.
