Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a storage device, for mapping an electrical grid are disclosed. A method includes sampling multiple locations within a geographic region, executing a detection process for each location, the detection process including applying the set of images for the location as input to a machine learning (ML) model that is trained to identify electrical grid assets depicted within images taken from a combination of different perspectives and obtaining an output from the machine learning model that indicates whether a same electrical grid asset is identified in each of the images of the location. In response to an ML output that indicates a positive identification of the same electrical grid asset being depicted in a particular set of images of a particular location, the method further includes: selecting a number of sublocations within the region, and executing the detection process for each sublocation.

Abstract: An aircraft weight and balance system includes a user interface that displays an interior layout of an aircraft with seat icons and cargo icons corresponding to seats and cargo zones onboard the aircraft. The seat and cargo icons are moveable to different locations within the interior layout, and an updated weight and center-of-gravity of the aircraft is automatically determined based on the different locations of the seat and cargo icons. An aircraft weight and balance method includes displaying an interior layout of an aircraft on a user interface including seat icons corresponding to seats onboard the aircraft, moving one or more of the seat icons to a different location within the interior layout based on a user input, determining an updated weight and center-of-gravity of the aircraft based on a current location of the seat icons, and displaying the updated weight and center-of-gravity of the aircraft on the user interface.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a data clustering process for interpreting formation data, such as delineating reservoirs in well placement models. The data clustering process can be used with correlating offset well data and high angle or horizontal (HAHZ) target well data. Facies distribution and thus stratigraphy and the position of a borehole within the stratigraphic setting can also be assessed using the data clustering process via unsupervised computer learning techniques. A method of performing a well operation associated with a wellbore and an automated directional drilling system are provided herein. In one example, the method includes: (1) obtaining target well data from a wellbore in a subterranean formation, (2) generating a facies cluster model for the subterranean formation using a clustering process on the target well data, and (3) performing a well operation associated with the wellbore using the facies cluster model.

Abstract: Implementations disclosed herein provide for shoes including one or more wave cushions that provide temporary storage of the shoes’ impact energy with the ground and return of a portion of that energy to enhance a runner’s running economy. The wave cushions may include a pair of foundation layers, each with an engagement surface and a sinusoidal sectional profile. The sinusoidal sectional profiles are phase offset, and the elastic membrane is oriented between the engagement surfaces. The engagement surfaces together act as alternating matched pairs of actuators and cavities. Each actuator stretches a portion of the elastic membrane into a cavity when a runner’s weight is applied, converting the runner’s kinetic energy to potential energy stored in the stretched and deformed elastic membrane. As the runner’s weight is removed, the elastic membrane springs back into a substantially planar orientation, transferring the stored potential energy back to the runner as kinetic energy.

The methods of making the vesicles typically include mixing lipid vesicles formed of one or more lipids with one or more lipid conjugates and dialyzing the mixture for an effective amount of time and under conditions suitable for the lipid conjugate to insert into the membrane of lipid vesicles and form functionalized lipid vesicles that include the lipid conjugate as a functional element.

Abstract: A system and method for managing media advertising enterprise data. An enterprise data management (EDM) module can be configured to include a set of rules at an enterprise level to manage disparate and disconnected records. A scoring function with respect to each record can be computed based on the rules to determine the highest priority. The rules in association with the scoring function can be stored locally in an EDM database. A matching process can then be performed to accurately match similar records regardless of manual input, location, and format of the records in a distributed system. Each record can then be assigned with a parent enterprise advertiser. Such an optimization mechanism can interactively manage and report records at the enterprise level in a simple and efficient manner.

Abstract: The sign pole system disclosed simplifies the FRA requirement by incorporating many features into the sign pole system. The worker operating the pole can quickly raise the pole just by stepping on the lift bar. To lower the pole ‘remove the required safety’ is done by stepping on the release footstep. The built in LED features will activate only when it is nighttime and when the pole is in the vertical position. The sensitivity to actuate the LED's is adjustable to compensate for night yard overhead lighting. A solar panel keeps the battery charged. When required a pad lock (lock out device) can be inserted into the foot step base to secure the sign pole system in the up position until deemed safe by the worker to remove the sign protection. Manually attaching a night time blue light is no longer required because the LED light is now built into the sign pole and is automatically actuated.
