Abstract: A device may receive data associated with a delivery and display a first portion of a route associated with the delivery and first image data of an environment along the first portion. The device may determine that the first portion has been completed and may then display a second portion of the route. During display of the second portion, second image data representing a delivery location associated with the delivery may be presented. The first portion and the second portion may represent portions of the delivery that are completed using different modes of travel.

Abstract: A method and a system for predicting hydrocarbon composition of a reservoir fluid from mud log data are provided. An exemplary method includes generating predictors from an analysis of a database of mud log data, generating predicted mole fractions of a hexane fraction and a heptane+ fraction using the predictors, generating a predicted molecular weight of the heptane+ fraction, and predicting mole fractions of hydrocarbons representing the hydrocarbon composition of the reservoir fluid. The hydrocarbon composition, the predicted molecular weight, the predicted mole fractions or the predictors, or any combinations thereof, are displayed.

Abstract: A noise reduction and smart ticketing application for social media-based communication systems may identify social media-based communications from users who are attempting to engage with a brand or entity on a social media platform as actionable, and distinguish other communications as noise. The noise reduction and smart ticketing system may use machine learning to determine which social media communications are actionable for a given company or other organization, and generates tickets for actionable communications. Actionable communications may include, but are not limited to, technical support issues, inquiries about a product release date, grievances, incidents, suggestions to improve service, critiques of company policies, etc. Non-actionable communications (i.e., “noise”) may include, but are not limited to, suggestions to other users, promotions, coupons, offers, marketing campaigns, affiliate marketing, statements that a user is attending an event, etc.

Abstract: Methods and systems for determining reservoir permeability of a subsurface formation and fracture surface area. The method includes creating a first hydraulic fracture and a second hydraulic fracture in a horizontal well, generating a pressure pulse at the first hydraulic fracture, monitoring, using a first pressure gauge the pressure at the first hydraulic fracture, monitoring, using a second pressure gauge, the pressure pulse at the second hydraulic fracture, repeating this test at different locations along the wellbore to evaluate heterogeneity in permeability and variations in fracture surface areas, analyzing pressure and rate data to determine either permeability or fracture surface area by using: analytical/numerical simulation models, or physics-based proxy models inputting pressure front/peak arrival time or peak pressure.

Abstract: A method of determining a risk of corrosion and scale formation of tubing in a wellbore includes receiving, from a plurality of first sensors positioned at a downhole location of a wellbore, first production stream information and receiving, from a plurality of second sensors positioned at an uphole location, second production stream information. The method also includes performing a material balance to determine a first value representing a difference between a first production steam flow rate at the downhole location and a second production stream flow rate at the uphole location. The method also includes determining a second value representing a critical metal ion concentration of the production stream and, based on a result of comparing the first value with a threshold and based on the second value, determining a third value representing a risk of corrosion and scale formation at the tubing disposed within the wellbore.

Abstract: A process for extracting and recognizing named entities from a short unstructured chat-style text input. The process may tokenize an inbound electronic message, and use a combination of entity specific classifiers and databases comprising known named entities such as gazetteer(s) to identify one or more named entities within the inbound electronic message. The identified named entities are then compiled as response message and transmitted to the user.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes automatically generating, using machine learning, a data structure that stores a knowledge graph for a decision making process that is to be automated. The knowledge graph includes one or more entities, one or more states of each of the entities, and transitions for each of the states. The method further includes creating, from the knowledge graph, a decision tree that represents conditions for one or more parameters that cause the entities to transition from one state to another. The method further includes automatically generating a conversation flow and performing a machine-human conversation with a user to obtain values of the parameters using dialogs from the conversation flow to converse with the user. The method further includes executing the process automatically by traversing the decision tree using the values of the parameters. The method further includes notifying the user of a result of executing the process.

Abstract: Large batches of social media communications may be automatically annotated. This provides techniques to create large labeled datasets without the assistance of human labelers. For instance, social media communications may be fetched and annotated as actionable or noise for a given account (e.g., a brand handle on Twitter®) without human review. Social media communications from users who are attempting to engage with a brand or entity on a social media platform may be annotated as actionable, whereas other communications may be labeled as noise.
