Decoding geometrical structures from neural population recordings using Machine Learning and Deep Learning

Neurons situated in a brain region called the hippocampus have been discovered to represent information related to numerous aspects of space and navigation. The activity of these neurons is referred to as the cognitive map, a complex brain representation of space, navigation and other associated physical clues. The aim of this project is to design, develop, implement and test artificial intelligence algorithms to decode neural data recorded from the hippocampal formation. The neural data considered is, among others, recorded from rodents freely moving and navigating in a complex environment. The developed algorithms will aim to analyse and better understand how space is
represented in rodents’ and humans’ brains and how the cognitive space representation reacts and adapts to different topologies and different external stimuli. Finally, understanding how cognitive maps dynamics change and, in particular, how spatial memory is negatively affected by time and external stimuli shall lead to a better understanding of neurological dementias such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Numerical simulation for hydrate management in offshore pipelines

One of the major problems listed by many energy companies is flow assurance which involves significant efforts and costs to prevent hydrate blockages in the oil and gas facilities. Gas hydrate forms so rapidly and without warning in the offshore pipelines relative to waxes, scales, or asphaltenes. Although the hydrate plug formation rate is fast, remediation may take days or months. This research may help to understand further the hydrate formation behavior in the pipes. Conducting tests on the experimental setup is the best way to see hydrate significantly where and when it will be formed. Numerical simulations of the fabricated flow loop are one of this research’s objectives. However, the results of the model will be validated and compared with experimental data in different conditions. The MITACS support will be used to hire a Postdoctoral fellow (PDF) to support the activities in this project. The PDF will support computational modelling and operations of tests systems at C-CORE.

Development of anti-fog and anti-icing coating by plasma on PET films for helmet visor applications

Fogging and icing of surfaces is an issue that abords applications as diverse as the medical, the automotive, or the photovoltaic field. Even, it can represent a risk when present lenses and windshields, it dangerously reduces the field of view for the user. To address this problem, surface treatments based on coatings and chemical modifications of the surface have been developed. However, they present some drawbacks including the use of hazardous reagents, production of harmful residual products, and lose of properties. This project intends to employ atmospheric pressure plasma treatments for the synthesis of transparent anti-fog/ice coating on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) for helmet visor applications for the Canadian company KIMPEX Canada Inc.. Plasma approach reduces the use of chemical products while PET with anti-fog/ice properties can be easily sticked over lenses and windshields avoiding the treatment of the material of interest, then reducing the cost of treatment, making it removable and remaining transparent.

Optimisation des conditions de traitement par fermentation d’un rejet de I’industrie de la transformation laitiere et developpement d’un procede d’hydrolyse de la biomasse microbienne

Les rejets des industries de transformation laitiere sont caracterises par leur charge polluante elevee due a leur richesse en lactose et en mineraux. L’expansion des activites industrielles se heurte a des exigences environnementales de plus en plus strictes en termes de normes de rejet. Les solutions presentement adoptees par les transformateurs laitiers sont peu ou non viables (disposition pour I’alimentation animale, methanisation, sechage par atomisation etc.). Le procede developpe par la
Lactoscience a montre un potentiel interessant pour la transformation du lactose en biomasse microbienne de valeur niarchande reconnue en alimentation humaine et animale. La transpOSition du procede de I’echelle de laboratoire a I’echelle industrielle necessite Ie passage par une procedure de mise a I’echelle devant etre effectuee dans des installations pilotes. Le present projet s’articule donc autour de I’etude des performances et des rendements de production du procede de fermentation
dans des fermenteurs pilotes (2m3) afin d’etudier sa faisabilite et de fournir a la compagnie les parametres de mesure necessaires au dimensionnement d’une unite d’exploitation industrielle

Research and Implementation of Data Quality Improvement Algorithms for Vehicle Streaming Data Analytics

Road safety affects everyone, not just Geotab customers. With several years of driving and environmental data from over 2 million connected vehicles we have an opportunity to make our customers safer, as well as our communities and cities. To reduce accidents, we need to understand both the driving behavioural patterns that are predictive of accidents, and the environmental factors involved. To achieve this, the data infrastructure should be capable of processing a series of vehicle telematics data, as well as time-series historical records generated from existing machine learning models to respond to real world incidents within a short period of latency.

Client Success and Integration for onboarding customers

The project will consist of 2 primary goals: to apply the Six Sigma methodology in creating a effective onboarding/integration process for new clients and to utilize the 3Rs (Retention, Related sales, and Referrals) framework as a guide to optimize Glo3D’s customer success strategy. These two goals will practically strengthen our brand image, create a stronger relationship with the end consumer and improve users experience as we enter new verticals. The candidate will be tasked to build out essential business processes, to analyze consumer data and to explore new ways of customer engagement. As far as professional growth, the candidate will have a tremendous opportunity to tactically engage in our consumer onboarding experience, to automate certain processes and to manage a team as we grow.

Alberta Digital Soil Mapping Optimization Project

This project is part of a larger project that seeks to develop an effective, accurate, and cost-effective way to measure soil carbon, improve soil health, and sequester carbon. The interns will gather soil samples across Alberta, gather preliminary data on-site, and follow up with more extensive analysis in the laboratory. The resulting data will contribute to the creation of a digital soil organic carbon map for Alberta that is correlated with other biological, chemical and physical aspects of the soil, as well as helping us to understand the links between soil carbon and soil physiochemical and biological properties and their effect on overall soil health and fertility. Their observations and feedback on the entire process, from soil sampling through to final lab analysis will inform the review and development of updated field and lab procedures manuals, and ultimately form a basis for developing a cost-effective and accurate protocol for soil carbon measurement and, thereafter, for monitoring carbon sequestration.

Verified Engagement Platform Frontend Implementation, Marketing, and Commercialization

The past two years have shown increasing distrust through online division, polarizing protests and strikes, and destructive riots. This problem has gotten worse due to our unverified, disorganized, and time consuming citizen and stakeholder engagement systems, especially social media, focus groups and town halls, and voting. In order to solve the problem of increasing distrust by implementing a platform that provides verified, targeted, and ongoing proactive engagement, Veras Technologies Inc. will work with intern Altaaf Ackbar to implement, market, and commercialize a verified citizen and stakeholder engagement platform. The intern will first create and update a minimum viable product to onboard early users and sell to early adopters. Then the intern will connect the frontend of the platform to the blockchain and AI backend, developed by other interns in a different Mitacs project, and help onboard early adopter users and customers. Veras hopes to use this project to implement, market, and commercialize their product. The intern hopes to utilize this project to grow his technical, professional, and interdisciplinary skills that will provide himself a professional work environment foundation to advance the transferable skills needed to have a successful career after university graduation.
