Sustaining our forests in southwestern Alberta

This MITACS internship will support Julie Fortin, an MSc student whose focus is on developing new techniques for analyzing oblique historical mountain survey images based on the world’s largest systematic collection of historical mountain survey images, the Mountain Legacy Project. Her research is driven by questions about shifts in biodiversity over time, built atop biodiversity data and models developed by Dr. Jason Fisher and his colleagues and crews with Alberta Innovates for Willmore Wilderness. While removed from the landscapes of southwestern Alberta, in which a broader research initiative funding the Foothills Reearch Institute is supporting, the research questions and processes are analogous, and Ms. Fortin’s research will advance an understanding of how best to gain leverage for understanding disturbance ecology from a unique historical dataset of historical survey images.

Automatic Casting from Videos Using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks

In automatic casting applications, the aim is to accurately recognise facial regions that correspond to a same actor appearing in a movie to produce described video. In particular, this project will focus on challenging tasks of capturing and modeling the facial trajectory for each person appearing in a movie in order to predict when/where the principal actors appear. This is a challenging task because recent movies are typically high quality and faces are often occluded and their appearance varies significantly according to pose, illumination, blur, etc. The first objective of this project is to analyse and evaluate the state-of-the-art algorithms that are suitable for accurate detection and tracking faces in high resolution movies for fast automatic casting. Given the facial trajectories captured in a movie, the second objective is to investigate methods for learning or adapting predictive models to detect the principal actors in a film. TO BE CONT’D

The Characterization of Effective Dielectric Constant in Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) Fabrication Process for Development of Advanced Millimeter-Wave RF Front End Systems and Components

High frequency millimeter-waves are quickly becoming essential for many industrial and commercial applications including high resolution automotive radar and high-speed wireless communication systems. While millimeterwaves offer many benefits, they also introduce new engineering challenges, due to the smaller wavelengths and dielectric properties of materials at high frequencies. One of the primary challenges relates to the accurate characterization of the substrate material parameters, which are relied heavily upon in design and simulation of millimeter-wave circuits. Thin-film low temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) are a popular substrate choice for millimeter-wave circuits, allowing multiple metallization layers and accurate fabrication dimensions. Yet the accurate characterization of the electrical material parameters for LTCC have as yet not been extracted for millimeter-wave frequencies. The primary goal of this research is to accurately extract the effective dielectric constant and loss tangent of the as-fabricated material used in the LTCC process developed at ACAMP. This will allow ACAMP to offer increased first-pass fabrication yield to its customers, reducing design cost and time.

Evaluation of Flexkor as a flexibility aid for elite athletes

The purpose of this research is to determine if athletes who use the Flexkor device to facilitate PNF stretching before their workouts will result in comparable gains in hamstring flexibility and strength as would be obtained by athletes who use a trained therapist. It is also hoped that this research will further educate athletes and coaches on the importance of stretching for injury prevention.The partner will benefit from participating in the internship in a few ways. First, the partner will obtain research results that provide insight into how well his product works for improving the hamstring flexibility of athletes, compared to an athletic therapist. Feedback to the partner will be made regarding the design and use of his product in a real world situation. This can be used to further enhance the design of the product.

Kitchener Bioretention Planters Evaluation

Low impact development (LID) technologies are increasingly part of the urban landscape for Canadian municipalities. Bioretention planters, also known as rain gardens, are an LID technology that infiltrates and filters runoff at the source. Though design guidance exists, there is little data available on the long term performance of LID technologies, such as bioretention systems. This study aims to contribute to the literature of field studies on the long term performance of bioretention systems, in terms of the hydrologic performance and maintenance needs. The study site will be the bioretention planters along the King Street corridor in Kitchener, Ontario, which were installed in 2009-2010. In partnership with GHD Ltd. and the City of Kitchener, this study will aid with determining what factors are leading to the currently observed poor performance of the bioretention planters in the King Street corridor, and advise on potential remedies.

Responsible Development of Unconventional Hydrocarbon Reserves

Unconventional oil and gas resources are currently a significant portion of global oil and gas production and it is anticipated to continue its growth as production from conventional resources decline. Unconventional oil and gas resources include low permeability (“tight” resources e.g. shale), heavy oil and oil sands reservoirs amongst others. Economic and responsible development of these unconventional resources is a priority for society, governments and industry. Post the Paris Accord, it is imperative that new technologies and processes are researched and developed to minimize upstream greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from oil and gas activities, otherwise there is a risk that Canada’s hydrocarbon resource endowment could be stranded in the future, forgoing the vast economic benefits that Canada has received over past decades.

E-Community Health and Toxicity

Online communities abound today, arising on social networking sites, on the websites of real-world communities like schools or clubs, on web discussion forums, on the discussion boards of videogames, and even on the comment pages of news sites and blogs. Some of these communities are “healthy” and foster polite discussion between respectful members, but others are “toxic” and devolve into virulent fights, trolling, cyber-bullying, fraud, or worse even, incitation to suicide, radicalization, or the sexual predation and grooming of minors. Detecting toxic messages and toxic users is a major challenge, in part because they are adversarial users who are actively trying to circumvent or fool detection software and filters. TO BE CONT’D
