  • Patent number: 12288313
    Abstract: Systems and techniques provide for low-latency, full-frequency noise filtering of images through the use of an image-scaling-based filtering technique, or “multiscale filtering technique”, that can provide filtering for low, medium, and/or high frequencies for one or more components of an image, such that the different resolution scales at each level of the multiscale filtering technique provides a larger receptive field for a denoising process employed at each level than a conventional denoising framework. This multiscale filtering includes receiving an input image to be filtered and then performing a multiscale filtering process in which an input image is, at different resolution scales, denoised, downscaled, upscaled, and fused with a result of a lower resolution scale, to generate a filtered image. This may include temporarily buffering intermediate image data for some of the resolution scales at a memory using direct memory access (DMA) operations.

  • Publication number: 20250101288
    Abstract: A water-based drilling fluid can include a first and second viscosifier of a cross-linked starch and a cross-linked acrylamide-based polymer. The acrylamide-based polymer can be crosslinked and optionally include hydrophobic monomers. The viscosifiers create a synergistic effect that imparts desirable properties to the drilling fluid compared to using either of the viscosifiers alone. The viscosifiers can be used as an alternative to other types of viscosifiers such as xanthan gum.
