Abstract: The invention provides a method and an arrangement for detecting moving point- targets within a large set of noisy measurements. The method is based on Bayesian model selection where the measurements containing targets are modeled with their physical trajectories and the non-target measurements are modeled with the statistical distribution of measurements containing no targets. An a posteriori probability density function is utilized together with a optimization algorithm specifically designed for this problem. Advantages of the invention involve a numerically efficient formulation of the a posteriori probability density, combined with the optimization algorithm. The main applications of the invention are in detecting moving targets within e.g., radar, sonar, lidar and telescopic measurements. The method is also applicaple for multi-instrument data fusion.

Abstract: A skid-mounted auger tank apparatus includes a hopper-bottomed receiving tank contiguous with a hopper-bottomed loadout tank, which is typically higher than the receiving tank. The sloped-wall hopper bottom of the receiving tank transitions into an auger trough extending the length of the hopper bottom and into the loadout tank. The receiving tank is positioned adjacent a drilling rig so that raw wellbore cuttings and centrifuge underflow from a drilling rig shale shaker can flow by gravity into the receiving tank. A first horizontal auger disposed in an auger trough in the bottom of the receiving tank moves received cuttings toward and into the loadout tank. A  second horizontal auger disposed in an auger trough in the bottom of the loadout tank moves cuttings from the loadout tank toward a sump. An inclined third auger lifts cuttings from the sump for discharge into a transport vehicle.

Patent CA-2836656-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TRAVERSO C GIOVANNI
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 2002-12-04
Abstract: Genetic diseases can be diagnosed by detection of mutations in causative genes. Protein truncation assays can be used to detect gene products of truncation-type mutations. However, the sensitivity of the assays is often insufficient to detect mutations present in a sample of DNA at a low frequency. Sensitivity can be increased by dividing samples so that the signal generated by a mutant allele comprises a larger fraction of the total alleles than prior to dividing. Thus a previously undetectable signal generated by the mutant allele can become detectable in the assay. Such increased sensitivity permits detection at early stages and in samples having high levels of other alleles.
