Abstract: A system is disclosed for using an audio time and level difference renderer (TLDR) to generate spatialized audio content for multiple channels from an audio signal received at a single channel. The system selects an audio TLDR from a set of audio TLDRs based on received input parameters. The system configures the selected audio TLDR based on received input parameters using a filter parameter model to generate a configured audio TLDR that comprises a set of configured binaural dynamic filters, and a configured delay between the multiple channel. The system applies the configured audio TLDR to an audio signal received at the single channel to generate spatialized multiple channel audio content for each channel of the multiple audio channel and presents the generated spatialized audio content at multiple channels to a user via a headset.

Abstract: An audio system generates customized head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) for a user. The audio system receives an initial set of estimated HRTFs. The initial set of HRTFs may have been estimated using a trained machine learning and computer vision system and pictures of the user's ears. The audio system generates a set of test locations using the initial set of HRTFs. The audio system presents test sounds at each of the initial set of test locations using the initial set of HRTFs. The audio system monitors user responses to the test sounds. The audio system uses the monitored responses to generate a new set of estimated HRTFs and a new set of test locations. The process repeats until a threshold accuracy is achieved or until a set period of time expires. The audio system presents audio content to the user using the customized HRTFs.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems and methods for controlling a hydraulic fracturing job. One or more perforations to create during a fracturing stage of a fracturing job at one or more corresponding perforation sites in a wellbore can be identified. The one or more perforations can be formed through one or more perforation devices disposed in the wellbore. Specifically, the one or more perforation devices can be selectively activated from a surface of the wellbore through a well intervention-less technique to selectively form the one or more perforations during the fracturing stage. Further, a volume of fracturing fluid can be pumped into the wellbore during the fracturing stage to form one or more first fractures in a surrounding formation through the one or more perforations.

Abstract: An ad hoc approach denoted as devoid clutter capture and filling (DeCCaF) that addresses the nonstationarity effects that arise when input radar waveform returns exhibiting dynamic spectra variations are processed to combat dynamic RFI is disclosed. Portions of the spectra of each input waveform return of a set of input radar waveform returns processed during the CPI may be filled with clutter information borrowed from other waveform returns of the set of waveform returns. DeCCaF may combined with an appropriate filter (e.g., a matched filter, a mismatched filter) to achieve results that are nearly indistinguishable from input radar waveform returns in which no spectral variation are present.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to an audio system for various audio applications. The audio system registers the locations of one or more sound sources and selects the target sound source based on a hidden Markov model. A health monitoring system that integrates an audio system may use information collected by sensors to monitor an amount of social interaction of a user and predict a risk of dementia and/or hearing loss based on a model. The audio system uses a current/voltage sensor to detect electrical drive signals for determining a level of audio leakage of the audio system. Additionally, the audio system may update a video stream with an audio background based on an artificial visual background in the video stream so that the updated video stream sounds as if it originated from the user being located in a physical representation related to the background.

Abstract: An apparatus and method identify emitters. The apparatus includes a receiver, a parameter estimator, a database, and a correlator. The receiver receives an electromagnetic signal from an emitter and measures actual values of observed parameters of the electromagnetic signal. The parameter estimator surmises surmised values of unobserved parameters from the actual values of the observed parameters. The actual values of the observed parameters and the surmised values of the unobserved parameters characterize the emitter. The database stores one or more entries for each emitter. Each entry specifies an identifier of an emitter and exemplary values of the observed and unobserved parameters. The correlator matches the actual values of the observed parameters and the surmised values of the unobserved parameters with the exemplary values of one of the entries of the emitter from which the receiver receives the electromagnetic signal. The correlator outputs the identifier from this entry in the database.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for controlling a hydraulic fracturing job. Diagnostics data of a hydraulic fracturing completion of a wellbore can be received. A fracture formation model that models formation characteristics of fractures formed through the wellbore into a formation surrounding the wellbore during the hydraulic fracturing completion with respect to surface variables can be accessed. A subsurface objective function of fracture complexity can be selected from a plurality of subsurface objective functions for changing one or more of the formation characteristics of the fractures. The fracture formation model can be applied based on the diagnostics data to determine values of the surface variables for controlling the formation characteristics of the fractures to converge on the subsurface objective function of fracture complexity. As follows, a fracture completion plan can be formed based on the values of the surface variables.

Abstract: A system receives audio data in a frequency range of 20 Hz-20 kHz. The received audio data is encoded by the system into ultrasonic data in frequencies that are greater than 20 kHz, and transmitted into a local area that is proximal to the transmitting device, i.e., within the transmission range of the transmitting device. An ultrasonic communication device that is located in the transmission range of the transmitting device may receive the ultrasonic data. The received ultrasonic data is decoded by the ultrasonic communication system in the receiving device into audio data in a frequency range of 20 Hz-20 kHz, and subsequently presented to a user of the receiving ultrasonic communication device.

Abstract: This disclosure presents processes to determine whether a leak-off event is occurring during the treatment stage of an active borehole. The leak-off event data, such as the severity or magnitude of the potential leak-off, can be communicated to other systems to adjust the treatment stage, the fluid composition, the fluid pressure, or the fluid flow rate. Diverter material can be added to the fluid. The monitoring of the leak-off event can occur over a time interval, such as the time of the treatment stage and periodic adjustments to the treatment stage can be implemented. The leak-off event can be identified when a fluid pressure slope indicates an overall increase in pressure in an adjacent borehole or if the amount of fluid entering an adjacent borehole exceeds a leak-off threshold.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to systems and methods for controlling a hydraulic fracturing job. A fracturing completion model can be applied to identify a plurality of possible fracturing completion plans for completing one or more wellbores at a target completion. The plurality of possible fracturing completion plans can include varying values of fracturing completion parameters and/or reservoir parameters.

Further, the completion characteristic data can be used to determine whether to apply a different fracturing completion plan of the possible fracturing completion plans. In turn, if it is determined to apply the different fracturing completion plan, then the method can include facilitating switching to the different fracturing completion plan in completing the one or more wellbores.
