Increasing Grid Resilience using Game-theoretic Demand Side Management

Demand Side Management is a scheme that manages production, consumption and storage of energy of an aggregation of households in a neighborhood. The automated algorithms communicate between households to ensure that grid constraints are respected and households use energy optimally to maximize the use of green energy and save money. A promising tool for these control algorithms is game theory which gives mathematical guarantees for fairness and equity between households such that all participants in this scheme are treated equally while respecting their individual preferences. Game-theoretic control algorithms in the area of energy management are novel and have not been applied to real-world settings. One major hindrance of the implementation in the real world is that currently there are no safety and stability guarantees for these types of algorithm. In this project we want to develop such mathematical guarantees for a specific game-theoretic controller which is ideally suited for the Demand Side Management application.

Controllable and editable character performance using Implicit Neural Representation approaches

Nowadays, many of the movie characters whose performances move us on screen are at least in part digital. From superhero stunts to de-aged beloved actors and actresses, visual effects artists have to create digital characters and painstakingly reproduce performances to convince audiences. New Deep Learning (DL) technologies are emerging to help alleviate the processes. For instance, Deep Fakes have been quite successful at swapping facial performances. Other promising approaches are emerging under the large umbrella of Implicit Neural Representation (INRs) such as Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs). We wish to explore novel ways to automate parts of the workflows involved in creating so-called Digital Doubles using NeRF-like algorithms.

Exploration of RL-based agents in the context of space robotic systems

This research will explore machine learning methods in order to devise a control scheme for robotic manipulators(Candarm3) in the context of space exploration. The objective is to develop an early prototype for an autonomous learning agent which can carry out standard control tasks without any operator supervision.
The primary machine learning methods that will be studied will revolve around deep-reinforcement learning methods, in which an agent iteratively improves its performance in a given task. This is done through simulating training exercises, where the agent is rewarded for performing well. The agent modifies its behaviour in order to maximize its expected reward in future training exercises.

Building integrative machine learning framework for precision oncology

Traditional cancer treatments have followed a “one size fits all” approach, which limits efficacy and often results in significant side effects.
This research project aims to develop an approach to predict the impact of cancer missense mutations on the drug-protein interactions of cancer treatments. The approach will use the patient’s own genomic profile and will help to tailor cancer treatments for the patient. This will reduce side effects and costs to the patient by selecting optimal treatment options for individual patients. Using binding affinity as a measure of drug efficacy this research will follow techniques similar to prior works, with the use of graph representation learning for the drugs and targets. This project will also explore several ideas to allow for better results by considering the uniqueness of this problem, such as including information from both wild-type and the mutated protein.
The significance of this work to the partner organization (Princess Margaret Cancer Center) is improved patient care and potential improvements in efficiency/costs with the use of such an automated system.

Développement et validation des méthodes de contrôle non-destructif de pièces métalliques fabriquées par fusion laser sur lit de poudre

Le but de cette recherche est d’établir un protocole de contrôle pour détecter efficacement les défauts présents dans des pièces métalliques produites par une méthode appelée “fabrication additive”. Le contrôle de qualité des pièces produites est une étape cruciale avant leurs mises en service. Différentes techniques de contrôle sont disponibles ayant chacune des avantages et des limitations en termes de précision, de capacité de détection et de coûts associés. Des défauts représentatifs des problèmes qui peuvent survenir lors de la fabrication seront introduits intentionnellement et d’une façon contrôlée dans des pièces pour évaluer les limites de différentes techniques de contrôle de qualité. Un intérêt particulier sera porter à la méthode tomographie par rayons-X, qui permet de voir l’intérieur des pièces sans les endommager se basant sur le même principe que les radiographies médicales. Ce projet permettra au partenaire industriel d’optimiser la qualité et les coûts du contrôle des pièces produites.
