Renewable Energy Mobility (REM)

The proposed REM project aims at developing and installing a highly iconographic solar charging station that will help inspire and foster the expansion of local infrastructure for electric vehicles at York University. This effort is part of a plan to use this innovative solar charging station to offset the electrical needs of EVs and most importantly to attract autosharing companies to the campus so EVs can become highly accessible to everyone at the university

Using AI to enhance threat intelligence capabilities

The proposed research project aims to revolutionize cybersecurity at Difenda Inc. by integrating artificial intelligence (AI) into their security infrastructure. Traditional methods of analyzing cyber threat intelligence (CTI) are hindered by manual processes, resulting in slow response times and information overload. Through the adoption of AI-driven solutions, the project seeks to automate the accumulation, processing, and prioritization of CTI from various sources, such as SIEM logs and the Dark Web. By leveraging Microsoft Security Copilot and developing AI algorithms, Difenda Inc. aims to streamline CTI analysis, reduce analyst workload, and enhance scalability. The project also focuses on transforming data into actionable intelligence for incident response, thus fortifying the company’s security posture. Additionally, by creating standardized formats for data exchange, the research contributes to collaborative defense strategies. Ultimately, this initiative positions Difenda Inc. at the forefront of proactive cybersecurity practices while advancing the collective knowledge base in utilizing AI for effective threat intelligence.

Evaluation of North Atlantic Right Whale Surveillance Coverage & Intensity in Atlantic Canada

Surveillance efforts of cetaceans in Canada follow systematic line transect survey designs. These surveys are designed to minimize variance between surveys to aid in abundance and distribution estimates of whales in Canadian waters. Following the shift of North Atlantic right whales (NARW) into the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the introduction of fisheries and vessel management measures to mitigate injuries and mortalities to NARW, the objectives of the Government of Canada’s aerial surveillance program changed. Since 2017, surveillance activity has included surveillance for distribution and abundance estimates, as well as for dynamic management implementation. However, the line transect and stratification of habitats has not been updated to reflect this change in objectives, thus there continues to be interannual variability and gaps in our coverage for NARW protection. This project aims to quantify this variation and determine gaps in surveillance coverage to make recommendations that could improve management measure effectiveness. This work contributes to the Canada Wildlife Federation’s (CWF) ongoing work to quantify management measures and estimate whale occurrence throughout Atlantic Canada. CWF conducts science to support wildlife protection and for advocacy work, with the goal to promote the sustainable use of the oceans while protecting marine species.

Generator-Enhanced Computational Chemistry and Optimization (GECCO)

This project aims to use generative AI models to improve challenging tasks in computational chemistry and optimization. More specifically, by combining quantum computing with machine learning, the research will focus on generative AI methods to design molecules for accelerating drug discovery pipelines. Novel quantum subroutines for hybrid quantum-classical models will be designed, developed, implemented and tested extensively. Their performances will be benchmarked against classical state-of-the-art generative AI techniques to quantify the advantage introduced by the quantum component. If successful, this research could lead to faster and more effective ways to find new medicines, benefiting both the Canadian and global healthcare industry and high-tech companies, like the partner organization. This research project has the potential to revolutionize drug discovery using cutting-edge technology, and it aligns perfectly with Zapata AI’s mission: to solve the most computationally complex problems in industry with advanced computing techniques.

Bridging the Gap – Health and Safety Engineering Student Teaching Modules – Stage 2

This project is an undertaking in coordination with Minerva Canada, some of its industry partners and seven Canadian universities which aims to address a gap between industry and the graduates of engineering programs in terms of attitudes, knowledge and applied skills pertaining to health & safety in engineering practice. Upon completion, the project’s end product will include 8 stand-alone teaching modules that can be integrated into one of the four years of an engineering program related to health & safety for universities across Canada. This project is currently in the second stage of the third phase of the project. The first stage involved developing 11 Health and safety teaching modules that begun in 2013 and is continuing – six draft modules have been completed and are being student tested. Phase 2 provided the input for this project and involved the development of a curriculum plan for content and integration into all four years of engineering. This phase identified the needed core and discipline specific modules. It was completed by Ana Popovic of Queen’s University through a MITACS grant and sponsorship by Minerva Canada.

Flexible electronics for heated glove control

Wearable devices are a promising technology for collecting and analyzing physiological and environmental data for various applications, including healthcare, sports and fitness, and occupational health and safety. In some settings, these wearable devices can also be integrated with actuation capabilities to interact with users.
The proposed research project focuses on applying wearable technologies to thermal comfort and regulation. This will be achieved through the design of heating gloves for Canadian workers in extreme cold environments, such as construction and mining. While protective gloves are essential in these environments, their bulkiness can be a drawback. They can limit dexterity and require a stronger grip, potentially contributing to carpal tunnel syndrome. Additionally, vibrations can exacerbate vibration-induced white finger, especially when hands are cold.
This project aims to explore the use of heating gloves. By generating sufficient warmth, the gloves can be thinner, reducing the needed gripping force while still providing thermal comfort and regulation. The project will focus on developing and programming a flexible printed circuit board (PCB) to control the heating element, which will be developed in a concurrent project.
This research will contribute to the growing field of wearable and printed textile electronics and their application to occupational health and safety.

Continuing to Promote Accessibility Through Seating in City Parks

Within the City of Edmonton, the Operations Program Delivery and Partnerships (OPDP) team is home to multiple parks programs that make Edmonton more livable, sustainable, and beautiful. The Benchmark Program is one such program. It was established to offer individuals and groups the opportunity to honour loved ones or to celebrate special occasions through the placement of a commemorative plaque on a bench in City parks and open spaces. The Benchmark program
also installs benches in new locations within City parkland, where there is a need for additional seating. The Access Design Guide, built to accompany Accessibility for People with Disabilities Policy C602, specifies that seating nodes shall be located every 100 m along pathways and trails for Metropolitan, District and Community parks in the City of Edmonton. The gap in the provision of benches has been assessed, but the results need to be further refined to guide future placement of benches.

Business Strategy Internship

Développer un modèle d’apprentissage par renforcement permettant à un robot de déterminer le positionnement de son préhenseur pour saisir un objet inconnu selon sa forme et diverses autres spécifications.

Les objectifs spécifiques du stage sont d’utiliser une version numérique de la pince du robot, des objets à saisir et de leur environnement dans un simulateur et de développer un modèle d’intelligence artificielle permettant de déterminer le positionnement et la manière d’agripper les objets. Le projet proposé par le stagiaire vise à développer de tels algorithmes de contrôle. Le robot perçoit non seulement son environnement mais en tire également des leçons. Ainsi, le projet soutient l’objectif du CRVI de développer des solutions d’automatisation industrielle qui s’appuient sur la vision et l’apprentissage par renforcement pour contrôler les robots.
