Title: Systems and methods for quantifying customer engagement
Inventor: MARC COHEN
IPC: G16H10/60
Filed: 2019-03-20
Abstract: A health care provider (HCP) engagement engine is disclosed. The HCP engagement engine facilitates effective communication between pharmaceutical sales representatives (pharma reps) and HCPs by tracking actions performed by pharma reps to sell products to HCPs, analyzing the actions, and eliminating confounding effects due to inbound and outbound activities. Inbound activities include behaviors performed by pharma reps to the HCPs, while outbound activities are taken by HCPs in response to the inbound activities. Reducing confounding allows the pharma reps to have better information about which behaviors best drive HCP engagement.

Title: Determining formation properties based on multi-component azimuthal measurements
Inventor: LI PAN
IPC: G01V3/26
Filed: 2019-05-23
Abstract: A geosignal is calculated based on a signal detected by a multicomponent resistivity tool (101) to facilitate determination of formation properties and infer location of the resistivity tool with respect to formation boundaries. The resistivity tool (101) detects an electromagnetic field response signal (109) at a series of azimuth angles (111) during one tool rotation. The signal measured at each azimuth angle is decoupled to obtain nonzero electromagnetic field tensor components for input into the geosignal calculation. The results of the geosignal calculation for at least a top bin (i.e., an azimuth angle of 360 degrees) and a bottom bin (i.e., an azimuth angle of 180 degrees) are evaluated to determine whether the tool (101) is near a formation boundary. If the tool is determined to be near a formation boundary, the resistivity of the layers of the formation on each side of the detected boundary can be inferred.
