Precision AI – Agronomy Data Labelling and Testing

Agronomy interns would be important members of our growing agronomy AI team. Precision AI now needs more agronomy expertise to achieve our growth objectives. The interns will help us accelerate our artificial intelligence model development by applying their expertise to more quickly identify crop and weed plants in the images we have collected. They will also be able to accelerate our AI performance testing. Two interns would focus on the agronomic aspects of field testing the technology. One intern would support our AI team with the work of annotating plant images for machine learning.
This work will support the creation and commercialization of Precision AI’s proproprietary technology and IP.It will contribute improving the speed and accuracy of the processes. This work will also contribute to the work that we are planning to launch in the United States.
In the short term, this work will help reduce the input costs of farmers. In the longer term, the project will contributed to the reduction of chemicals in the environment and food supply.

Design of abrasion resistant wood plastic composites

The vast majority of monomers used to make plastics are derived from fossil hydrocarbons. Furthermore, most of the commonly used plastics are not biodegradable. As a result, they accumulate in landfills or the natural environment. This has resulted in a societal concern over overcrowding of landfills, climate change, and rapid depletion of natural resources. The use of sustainable cellulosic biomass for wood plastic composites (WPCs) and recycling of plastics for WPC applications provide significant ecological benefits. The proposed project targets to develop a cost effective, light weight and sustainable wood plastic composites by incorporating hemp hurd residues in recycled polyolefins. This work will support NFT’s activities in extending its sustainability effort in the construction and manufacturing sectors. Furthermore, the project will form a valuable multidisciplinary training opportunity for a postdoctoral fellow and other highly qualified personnel.

Investigation of group effect of large pile groups under lateral loading

At present, the understating of the lateral behavior of large pile group foundations (> 100 piles) supporting bridges, high-rise buildings, marine structures, and LNG tanks is limited. There are no definitive published design recommendations or guidance on evaluation of the lateral group effect of large pile groups. The current design standards (e.g., AASHTO, Canadian Foundation Engineering Manual) are based on the previous experimental results of full-scale and model testing of much smaller pile groups (< 25 piles). Therefore, a great uncertainty lies in extrapolating the recommendations of the group effect for the small pile groups to the design of much larger pile groups. The appropriateness of such extrapolation remains a subject for investigation. This project aims to develop analytical and numerical solutions for this investigation. The outcomes of this research will enhance the partner company’s capability in designing large pile groups under lateral loading and safeguard the infrastructure in Canada.

Design and Develop an AI-powered Financial Management Application in place of a Legacy Financial Planning Tool

Legacy Financial Canada Inc., the partner organization of this project, is a Toronto based financial planning and services firm incorporated in 2014. The company offers holistic comprehensive financial plans, services, and advice to reach the financial goals of their clients. Its uniquely customized solutions and services, taking a more distinct shape around the diverse needs of individuals, families, business owners, organizations, and charities and help them to build, protect and efficiently manage their wealth.
During the pandemic time, financial advisors face new challenges in managing workflow, and in communicating with colleagues and clients seamlessly[6]. Moreover, currently there is no system that takes input from client and advisor together and gives instant financial advice to the client. Legacy Financial will collaborate with WITMACH to develop an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered application on top of their existing financial planning tool to meet these challenges.
Through such collaborative intelligence, the company will be able to find a unique value proposition and to provide enhanced client service that meet their needs and expectations in developing adequate financial/investment straggles in today’s complex economy.

L’art de l’interprétation dans l’oeuvre de Pierre Hadot: recherches archivistiques

Le séjour de recherche projeté s’inscrit dans un projet de doctorat au sujet de L’art de l’interprétation dans l’oeuvre de Pierre Hadot. Le philosophe français Pierre Hadot (1922-2010) est connu pour avoir entrepris une redéfinition de la philosophie en tant que “manière de vivre” – d’après le portrait que ses travaux d’historien lui ont permis de faire de la philosophie antique (c’est-à-dire de la philosophie des origines). Il s’est aussi posé tout au long de sa trajectoire intellectuelle des questions au sujet de l’interprétation des textes anciens, qui ont moins retenu jusqu’ici l’attention des chercheurs. La visée de mon projet de doctorat est d’étudier pour elle-même cette dernière dimension de l’oeuvre de Pierre Hadot, dans le but de mettre celle-ci en dialogue avec l’herméneutique contemporaine, qui a élevé l’art de l’interprétation au rang de philosophie (car on interprète non seulement des textes mais aussi soi-même, le monde, voire l’être même).

Leading Transformational Multi-Jurisdictional Change: Managing Mental Health in the Community

Police organizations are facing increasing costs associated with an escalating number of calls to respond to persons with mental illness (PMI). The processes currently in place to manage mental health in the community contribute significantly to the costs associated with law enforcement involvement in PMIs. The existing process is driven by the Mental Health Act and requires a collaborative effort from police and healthcare services. The purpose of this project is to investigate the PMI process undertaken by the Peel Regional Police, make recommendations to the process using LEAN techniques and measure the costs and benefits associated with these changes after a one-year implementation period. Data collection will involve archival records and in-person interviews taken at three points in time (time zero, time one, one year after implementation). It is expected that Peel Police will benefit from this project by receiving a LEAN process for PMIs.

High temperature energy storage device for buildings applications

Energy storage can help address the intermittency of renewable energies (such as solar and wind power). Different methods were developed to store energy for later uses. D’Arcy Mann, the founder of TESS Research Ltd., developed a method of high temperature thermal storage that would allow surplus power from renewables to be input year-round and given off as household heat in winter. With refinement, it could also be used as an air conditioning unit not as an either/or but as a reversible heat pump. It’s a relatively small, above-ground, modular design that is being scaled for single-family dwellings but chaining them together could be used to heat or cool larger spaces from office buildings to military barracks.
With the help of USASK researchers through this internship, TESS Research Ltd. will be able to move forward to commercializing this product. More specifically, a mathematical model is required to come up with a better design, to size and optimize the product for different climate conditions and applications. The model development and optimization require a detailed literature survey market analysis that USASK researchers could help with.
