Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for isolation detection. In one implementation, an axial acoustic signal is obtained. The axial acoustic signal is captured using an axial sensor deployed in a structure in a subterranean surface. The axial acoustic signal is separated into a first wave region and a second wave region by applying velocity filtering. An axial symmetry of a portion of the structure is determined based on at least one of the first wave region or the second wave region.

Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for isolation detection. In one implementation, recorded data is obtained. The recorded data includes radial acoustic waves transmitted and received using a radial sensor of an acoustic logging tool deployed in a wellbore. Clockwise waves are separated from counterclockwise waves by converting the recorded data from a time domain to a frequency domain. The clockwise waves are shifted into shifted clockwise waves, and the counterclockwise waves are shifted into a shifted counterclockwise waves. A forward wave is generated by combining the shifted clockwise waves, and a reflected wave is generated by combining the shifted counterclockwise waves. One or more isolation regions are identified in the wellbore using the forward wave and the reflected wave.

Abstract: In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to forecasting product demand. In some embodiments, a system comprise a forecasting control circuit to: apply each of a plurality of different models to forecast demand of a first product over a first historic period generating historic forecasted demands of the first product, wherein at least a first model uses selected one or more variables that are predicted to have an uncharacteristic effect on predicted demand; select one of the models and apply the model in generating a forecasted future demand, wherein the selection of the model is based on a difference between each of the generated historic forecasted demands and actual sales; and identify actions to modify inventory of the first product at the first shopping facility based on the forecasted future demand.

Abstract: In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to monitoring retail products. In some embodiments, there is provided a system for monitoring retail products including: one or more shelf image capturing devices disposed within a retail shopping facility. The one or more shelf image capturing devices configured to capture shelf images of retail store shelves. The captured shelf images having an associated shelf timestamp. By one approach, a control circuit in communication with the one or more shelf image capturing devices is configured to analyze the captured shelf images by comparing brightness, contrast levels, and luminous intensity at a particular frequency between at least two shelf images of the captured shelf images to determine a rate of shelf product depletion for a particular retail product and send a shelf depletion warning regarding a particular retail item to an associate device or a central computer.

Abstract: In some embodiments, systems, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful for monitoring retail products including: one or more shelf image capturing devices disposed within a retail shopping facility; one or more stock image capturing devices disposed within a stockroom of the retail shopping facility; and a control circuit in communication with the one or more shelf image capturing devices and the one or more stock image capturing devices. The control circuit may configured to: analyze the captured shelf images and associated shelf timestamp to determine a rate of shelf product depletion for a particular retail product; analyze the captured stock images and the associated stock timestamp to determine a rate of stock depletion; compare the rate of shelf product depletion and the rate of stock product depletion; and send a stock depletion warning regarding a particular retail item to a supply chain management server.
