  • Publication number: 20230121812
    Abstract: Data augmentation is described to train an artificial intelligence model that includes analyzing a first data set to measure an amount of data in the data set and the variation in the amount of data in the first data set to determine deficiencies for training an artificial intelligence model. Augmenting data is added for the first data set having an amount of data measured that fails to meet a threshold value. Deficiencies in the variation in the amount of data in the first data set are augmented using augmentation methods outside the variation scope of the first data set to provide a second data set of augmented data. An artificial intelligence model is trained with a combined data set of the first data set, and the second data set of augmented data when the first and second data set have an amount of data meeting the threshold value.

  • Patent number: 11620727
    Abstract: A well log is scanned for one or more dimensions that describe one or more features of a well. Each dimension includes a plurality of values in a numerical format that represents each dimension. A missing value is detected in a first plurality of values of a first dimension of the well log. The first dimension of the well log is transformed, in response to the missing value, into a first image that visually depicts the first dimension including the first plurality of values and the missing value. Based on the first image and based on an image analysis algorithm a second image is created that visually depicts the first plurality of values and includes a found depiction visually depicting a found value in place of the missing value. The found depiction is converted, based on the second image, into a first value in the numerical format.
