Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying actual XIC peaks of compounds of interest from samples so that more accurate expected retention times and more accurate expected retention time windows can be calculated. In one system, an actual XIC peak is identified using standard samples. The ratio of the quantity of the compound of interest in any two different samples is known, so this ratios is compared to the intensities of the XIC peak calculated in the two samples to identify an actual XIC peak. In another system, an actual XIC peak is identified using information about other compounds of interest in a plurality of samples. It is known that the XIC peaks of compounds of interest in the same samples have a similar distribution of retention times across those samples, so the distributions of retention times of XIC peaks are compared to identify actual XIC peaks.

The apparatus comprises feature generation circuitry for processing vibration sensor data received from a vibration sensor detecting vibration at a component of the reciprocating internal combustion engine 4 and generating a feature vector indicating multiple features of the sensor data.

The model generates an engine health indication providing a quantitative indication of deviation of the feature vector from the decision boundary of healthy operation.

Abstract: An elemental analysis of rock samples from outcrop sections or wells is performed. Data quality checks, data analysis, and filtering are performed on the rock samples, including de-spiking of elemental profiles and elemental ratios. First and second derivatives for the elemental profiles and the elemental ratios are calculated. Samples and depths that exceed thresholds are determined. The process is repeated for the elemental profiles and the elemental ratios that are related with boundary determination and carbonate or siliciclastic sediments. Additional filters are applied to at least a subset of the elemental profiles and elemental ratios that are related with boundary determination and carbonate or siliciclastic sediments to enhance the boundary identification. Possible boundaries in depths of the outcrop sections or wells are determined by summarizing the additionally filtered elemental profiles and the additionally filtered elemental ratios.

When it is determined that calibration of the geomagnetism sensor is unnecessary, the electronic device performs a control operation to turn OFF the gyro sensor.
