Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Transfer functions often overlook the stratigraphic heterogeneity and groundwater flow commonly found in natural geological settings, as well as the short-term effects from borehole thermal capacities. This study addresses this situation by presenting a combination of three artificial neural networks for the approximation of short-term transfer functions defined at the borehole outlet for a closed-loop borehole embedded in a multilayered geological environment and influenced by groundwater flow. This novel combined model employs a wavelet decomposition scheme as a pre-processing step to enhance the accuracy of the target function, while combining sub-networks to streamline implementation and reduce computation time. The results demonstrate high accuracy and efficiency, with the combined model agreeing well with transfer functions simulated using a 3D finite element model over a range of geological settings, borehole configurations, and operating conditions. The combined model exhibits an average relative root mean square error of 8.81×10−4 on 4371 independent simulations, with prediction times as low as 0.05 ms.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
