  • Patent number: 8843353
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present technology integrate seismic data and geologic concepts into earth model building. More specifically, exemplary embodiments provide new ways to build an earth model based on information in the seismic data and geologic concepts to use as a context to interpret the seismic data and/or to add to the earth model in regions where the seismic data is missing (e.g., either no data or no data resolvability). In some embodiments, a deterministic framework is generated for an earth models through deterministic identification of discrete geobodies. A hybrid deterministic-geostatistical earth model is generated by filling stratigraphic gaps in a deterministic framework using geostatistical information and/or seismic inversion, in accordance with some embodiments.

  • Publication number: 20140283198
    Abstract: Bio-regulators from a group of quaternary ammonium moieties modify a gene expression in a plant to induce enhanced growth and robustness. Such bio-regulator may be applied to seeds through coating or encapsulating, to plants through root drenching, spraying and dusting. Bio-regulators may be duel-acting; causing beneficial modification to gene expressions in desirable plants while modifying gene expression in undesirable plants, making them more susceptible to herbicides. Bio-regulators are Ester Compounds, BMIA Compounds or related salts, BMIA Compounds or related salts of those compounds.

  • Publication number: 20140282375
    Abstract: A program development framework (PDF) is described herein which allows a user to produce a program in piecemeal fashion by successively specifying program fragments. The PDF creates a new program fragment by receiving keyword information from the user that describes a new program fragment, and then identifies context information that pertains to a programmatic context in which the new program fragment appears within the overall program being created. The PDF then generates a set of candidate program fragments that satisfy the keyword information and the context information, and ranks those candidate program fragments based on ranking information. At least part of the ranking information may be based on statistical information that is produced by analyzing a corpus of previous programs produced by one or more users. The PDF then provides the ranked program fragments to the user using various user-friendly presentation strategies.
