Abstract: This disclosure describes a system and method for effectively training a machine learning model to identify features in DAS and/or seismic imaging data with limited or no human labels. This is accomplished using a masked autoencoder (MAE) network that is trained in multiple stages. The first stage is a self-supervised learning (SSL) stage where the model is generically trained to predict data that has been removed (masked) from an original dataset. The second stage involves performing additional predictive training on a second dataset that is specific to a particular geographic region, or specific to a certain set of desired features. The model is fine-tuned using labeled data in order to develop feature extraction capabilities.

Abstract: Prestack images from the object store are hierarchically combined to generate a hierarchically stacked image. The hierarchically stacked image is generated by combining stacked images that includes a stacked image. The stacked image is generated by combining at least the prestack images. Based at least on the hierarchically stacked image, a quality measure of a prestack image is generated. Prior to deleting at least a subset of the prestack images from the object store and based at least on the quality measure, the prestack images are further combined to generate an enhanced stacked image. The stacked image is substituted using the enhanced stacked image. Subsequent to the substituting and prior to deleting at least the subset of the stacked images from the object store, the stacked images are combined to generate an enhanced hierarchically stacked image. The enhanced stacked image and the enhanced hierarchically stacked image are generated using failure recovery metadata.

Abstract: An apparatus for forming a lesion in tissue along a desired ablation path includes a guide member having a tissue-opposing surface for placement against a heart surface. A guide carriage is sized to be received within the guide member and moveable therein along a longitudinal axis. The carriage is configured to receive an optical fiber extending substantially axially within the carriage and bend the fiber for a discharge tip of the fiber to aim through a bottom wall of the guide member. The carriage is further configured to bend the fiber toward said discharge tip with a curved portion subject to mechanical stress and a straight portion at the fiber discharge tip. The straight portion is selected to have a length to dissipate thermal stress arising from reflectance of light from the tissue back into the discharge tip.

Abstract: An apparatus for forming a lesion in tissue along a desired ablation path includes a guide member having a tissue-opposing surface for placement against a heart surface. A guide carriage is sized to be received within the guide member and moveable therein along a longitudinal axis. A flexible tubular member extends from a proximal end of said carriage and through a length of the guide member with the tubular member adapted to move the carriage within the guide member upon application of a force to the tubular member. A system urges the carriage to move in a path along an axis of the guide member by amount substantially identical to a displacement of a force application location on the flexible tubular member.
