  • Publication number: 20240410706
    Abstract: A technique generates estimated time-of-arrival (ETA) information to assist in navigating from one physical location to another. The technique uses a computer-implemented route-finding engine to identify a route between a specified starting location and an ending location of a trip. The route includes a sequence of segments. The technique then uses a machine-trained model to map information regarding the segments to ETA information. The ETA information provides an estimate of a time-of-arrival for the trip as a whole. The ETA information also provides an estimate of parameters that describe the level of confidence of the time-of-arrival estimate for the trip. A training system produces the machine-trained model using a loss function, part of which models the time-of-arrival for the trip as a mixture of distributions.

  • Patent number: 12142929
    Abstract: A system for monitoring and optimizing fuel consumption by a genset at an oil rig is described. Gensets require large amounts of fuel to initiate and to maintain in a standby, idling position. The system accesses data in a drill plan to determine the present and future power requirements and initiates gensets if needed; otherwise gensets can be shut down. Excess power can be stored in a power storage unit such as a capacitor, battery, or a liquid air energy storage unit.

  • Publication number: 20240361348
    Abstract: Purifying target biomolecules, such as nucleic acids or proteins, from a biological source is a time intensive process and is typically performed by a skilled technician or scientist owing to the highly technical nature of the work. Systems, devices, and methods disclosed herein enable the automated bioprocessing and purification of target biomolecules from a biological source. For example, an instrument and disposable cartridge are provided for automatedly isolating and purifying nucleic acids (such as plasmid DNA from a bacterial culture) or for isolating protein from any biological sample. Such an exemplary instrument and cartridge can work in concert to timely release, mix, and move the target biomolecule and various reagents and buffers through a target biomolecule purification process, resulting in a purified target biomolecule with less manual oversight than traditional approaches.

  • Publication number: 20240343272
    Abstract: A magnetic traction assembly is disclosed for a railcar mover that provides additional downforce to improve traction for a railcar mover when required. The magnetic traction assembly may comprise a frame, an actuator, and a magnetic element positioned underneath a railcar mover. The magnetic element may be lowered to a deployed position, where the magnetic element is positioned near the railroad rails such that the magnetic field from the magnetic element interacts with the railroad rail creating an attraction force that provides additional downforce to the railcar mover.

  • Patent number: 12120260
    Abstract: Described herein are technologies related to generating a predicted routine of a user of a mobile computing device. Location entries generated by the mobile computing device are processed to generate visit entries, wherein the visit entries are representative of visits made by the user to places over several days. An input sequence of states is constructed based upon the visit entries, wherein each state has a place identifier assigned thereto, and further wherein each state corresponds to a time interval of predefined length. A predicted routine of the user is generated based upon the input sequence of states.
