Field maintenance device (280) includes a processor (282) of the field maintenance device and storage system (285), at that processor (282) of the field maintenance device is configured such that to receive values (252a) extracted during operation prior to replacement, to receive values (252b) extracted during operation after replacement, when the old processing system was replaced by replacing processing system, to form one or more scale coefficients (266) as ratio of one or more values (252a) extracted during operation prior to replacement to one or more values (252b) extracted during operation after replacement, and to load one or more scale coefficients (266).

Systems and methods for well performance forecasting

Systems and methods for well performance forecasting

Group of inventions refers to the area of modelling and can be used for well performance forecasting. The method contains the stages, during which: input data influencing output index are identified, a subset of input variables is indentified when the above subset has relatively higher impact on output index. The model of physical properties is plotted in order to forecast output index as subset function of the set of input variables. The suggested changes in the subset from set of input variables are ranged against probability using the model of physical properties. Physical system performance is forecast based on the level of assumed changes.

Standard set of data for neuropsychic disorders

Standard set of data for neuropsychic disorders

Method involves using a processor unit for segmenting an anatomical structure represented in a three-dimensional image of a number of reference patients in order to create a reference segmentation of anatomical structures of the reference patients; obtaining a standard set of data by retrieving statistical representations of the morphology of the reference segmentations; using the processor unit to add a descriptive part of the standard set of data with the descriptive part including a text form of the data, which are other than an image and describe the anatomical structure; segmenting the patient's anatomical structure analysed for the presence of disorders to create patient's segmentation; comparing the patient's segmentation to the standard set of data obtained from the reference segmentations and descriptive parts of the standard set of data; and using the processor unit to identify the disorders of the anatomical structures analysed on the basis of comparison.
