Accelerating electronic structure simulations on quantum computers using complete active space approximations

Computational chemistry is a powerful tool in the development of new pharmaceuticals, materials, and batteries. With accurate and fast computational methods, one can predict the physical and chemical properties of a molecule without having to prepare it in a laboratory and perform experiments, which can yield dramatic time and cost savings. However, the chemistry of molecules is determined by the laws of quantum mechanics, which are challenging to simulate on even the largest supercomputers that exist today. One resolution of this problem is to use so-called quantum computers which can perform computations that encode these challenging quantum properties intrinsically at the hardware level. As building quantum computers is a challenging engineering problem, the current quantum computers that exist are very small, and can only perform computations for a short time before errors build up and scramble the results. For chemistry, this motivates the question of how to develop more compact representations of the target molecule one intends to simulate so that a smaller quantum computer can be used to study its chemistry. In this project, we will develop and benchmark various methods to generate compact representations of chemical systems, and determine which are best for quantum computing.

Self-supervised Representation Learning via Self-Evolvable Random Projections

Self-supervised representation learning (SSRL) has advanced considerably by exploiting the transformation invariance assumption under artificially designed data augmentations. While augmentation-based SSRL algorithms push the boundaries of performance in computer vision and natural language processing, they are often not directly applicable to other data modalities, and can conflict with application specific data augmentation constraints. This project aims to propose an SSRL approach that can be applied to any data modality and network architecture because it does not rely on augmentations or masking.

L2M- GreenLith- Using Cellulose Beads to capture Lithium to recycle batteries

Every technology today, from phones to EVs, rely heavily on lithium-ion batteries, which account for more than 90% of the world grid market. While these batteries make us independent of fossil fuels, we must remember that lithium is a finite resource, hence making it crucial for maintaining a secure Lithium supply and ensuring proper disposal of Li-ion batteries. Therefore, with our core values in innovation, sustainability and cost-effectiveness and guided by UNSDGs 9,12, and 13, we present to you GreenLith- specialized cellulose beads acting like tiny sponges, that would selectively capture Li ions from shredded lithium batteries

Advancing the Utility of Electrochemical Pressure Impedance Spectroscopy (EPIS) as a New Fuel Cell Diagnostic Technique

Fuel cells are versatile, low-emission alternative energy sources, but their optimization and failure analyses are complex due to their black-box nature. For fuel cells to perform at peak proficiency, each component requires a different level of hydration, yet these parameters are currently unattainable with conventional diagnostic techniques. In consultation with Greenlight Innovation, this project focuses on further developing of electrochemical pressure impedance spectroscopy (EPIS) to investigate water transport within operating cells. Initial tests, which focused on the effects of varying fuel cell operating conditions, suggested that EPIS can be optimized to probe changes in the hydration state of fuel cell components. The project’s current focus is the addition of new mechanical components to ensure the cell is isolated from the system and that the results obtained from EPIS are purely indicative of the cell’s response without undesired system effects. This addition allows for more consistent perturbation through the channel to provide more accurate diagnostics on the water transport in the cell. Further tests are required to ensure accurate and reproducible results can be obtained with this modification. Additional work has focused on using EPIS to diagnose degradation through accelerated stress testing. The initial stages of these analyses suggest that EPIS can provide early warnings to address performance losses before they become evident with conventional tests. Additional work needs to be completed to fully understand what forms of degradation can be detected with this technique. Support from Mitacs would enable further investigation into both of these studies in order to improve the technique and provide more applications for its use.

The Experiences and Practices of Mexican Novice Scholars in Writing for Scholarly Publication: A Mixed Methods Research Inquiry

Given global competitiveness for quality research articulated through scholarly publication, this study examines (I) the challenges faced by Mexican novice scholars in writing for scholarly publication in academic journals, and (2) the ways in which these novice scholars are supported in Mexican academic context and by expert members of their academic community in communicating their work through scholarly publication. Two overarching questions frame the study: What challenges do Mexican novice scholars face in writing for scholarly publication? How do they acquire the skills and knowledge necessary for scholarly publication? This study has important implications for policy-making and instructional planning in Mexican academic context. Knowledge produced will (a) provide further understanding of writing for publication practices of Mexican novice scholars, (b) contribute to understanding the nature of challenges presented in their scholarly publishing, (c) provide information for the betterment of mentorship and support mechanisms for their writing for scholarly publication, and (d) contribute to the knowledge base about best practices to strengthen Mexican novice scholars’ socialization in global scholarly communities.

Testing of Integrated Engineering using Web Computing Platform

ASETS-CA is an upcoming startup with a product that is called ASETS Integrated Design Suite (IDS) a cloud-based 3D facility modelling tool. This tool has a front- end and backend which needs to be tested rigorously before it goes out to the customer with different variation as per their needs. As per industry standards all the code should be covered using a testing framework which is this case would be Junit for Java backend. This would helps us check the output of the code and ensures that the written business logic is working correctly with expected input which is very crucial part of the product functionality.

Analysis of measurements derived from next-generation, low-cost, satellite-based navigation antennas for performance characterization and antenna design

GPS – the Global Positioning System and similar positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) systems, referred to as Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), have dramatically improved productivity and safety in our daily lives. Calian GNSS Ltd. has developed a range of novel, low-cost GNSS antennas with advanced technologies. Further improvements are possible to increase antenna performance whilst reducing physical size, power and cost. The interns will 1) develop a custom GNSS measurement analysis tool to assess antenna performance, 2) analyze the PNT performance of smart antennas, and 3) analyze the PNT performance of anti-jam antennas. The proposed research will help Calian improve its antenna technology and increase technology exports; improve Canadian productivity; produce needed graduate-level R&D GNSS engineers for Canadian GNSS and IT companies; and improve Canadians’ safety through PNT availability, accuracy and resiliency.
