  • Patent number: 11493656
    Abstract: A full probability-based seismic risk analysis method for a tunnel under fault dislocation comprises: evaluating a magnitude-frequency relationship of a fault; obtaining a probabilistic seismic risk curve of a fault dislocation; calculating a series of bending moments of a tunnel lining under different fault dislocations; obtaining a series of damage index values RM of the tunnel; obtaining a vulnerability model of the tunnel damaged by fault dislocation; calculating a probabilistic risk that the tunnel crossing the fault is damaged due to the dislocation of the active fault; obtaining a probability P that the damage state is equal to or higher than a certain damage state within a specified period; and using the results to guide the assessment of the seismic risk of the tunnel crossing the fault. Modeling and analysis can be performed according to the actual situation of the tunnel crossing the fault with different factors.

  • Publication number: 20220342098
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for diagnosing and/or calibrating underperforming pixels in detectors in a small pixelated photon counting CT system utilizes a series of tests on image data acquired in-situ as part of a series of calibration scans in the CT system. Tests are performed on the acquired data to determine the existence of underperforming pixels within the detectors such that the information acquired by those pixels can be replaced by alternate data from surrounding pixels (e.g. by interpolation). The underperforming pixels are stored in “bad” pixel tables and may be specific to a type of image (e.g., spectral or counting) and a specific protocol.

  • Patent number: 11481438
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method selects a sequence of programs watched by a user account. The method calculates a first set of weights based on comparing content of the sequence of programs to content of a target program and calculates a second set of weights based on an order of the sequence of the programs and the first of weights. The first set of weights and the second set of weights are applied to the sequence of programs to generate a prediction of a similarity of the sequence of programs to the target program. Then, the method outputs the prediction of the similarity for use in determining a recommendation for the user account.
