  • Patent number: 11933179
    Abstract: An extraction well system is disclosed that allows for isolation of electrical cables from underground mine atmosphere. The extraction well system provides for a well casing that extends downwardly proximate to an existing mine cavity and an extension casing that extends downwardly below the mine roof. In one embodiment the extension casing is external to the well casing and is attached to the well casing mechanically such as with a dual thread reducer. The extension runs from above the mine roof to below the mine floor and is perforated in the area of the mine cavity to allow liquid to drain into the bottom of the extension well. In a second embodiment, the extension casing is interior to the well casing and is attached for example by an internal liner hanger. In this embodiment, the extension casing runs from above the mine roof to below the desired minimum liquid level and it is the well casing that extends downwardly in the extension well and which is perforated to allow liquids to flow into the well.

  • Patent number: 11836031
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing a software override of a power estimation mechanism are disclosed. A computing system includes a plurality of tuned parameters for generating an estimate of power consumption. The tuned parameters are generated based on post-silicon characterization of the system. After deployment, the system executes a plurality of different applications. When launching a particular application, the system loads a corresponding set of override parameters which are used to replace the plurality of tuned parameters. The system generates an estimate of power consumption using the set of override parameters rather than the previously determined tuned parameters. Then while executing the particular application, the system makes adjustments to power and frequency values for the various system components based on the estimate of power consumption.

  • Publication number: 20230274240
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing transaction signing utilizing asymmetric cryptography and a private ledger. A transaction data is signed by a user device using a private key, and may be utilized in an authorization request message without including a real credential of the user. A transaction verification and accounting module (TVAM) can verify the signed transaction data and can continue processing the transaction.

  • Patent number: 11557380
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing curated criteria to identify one or more candidates for a clinical trial is disclosed. A computer processor identifies a first input criterion for the clinical trial. The processor employs a trained first recurrent neural network (RNN) configured as an encoder to encode the first input criterion. The encoder extracts key features of the medical condition of the patient. The processor employs a trained second RNN configured as a decoder to generate a curated output criterion by processing the encoded first input criterion based on the derived key features. The processor employs a machine learning model to ingest the curated output criterion to identify the one or more candidates for the clinical trial.
