LIDAR à deux peignes aéroporté

L’équipe du Centre national d’études spatiales (CNES) à Toulouse a développé un concept de télédétection laser (LIDAR) aéroporté pour la détection et la quantification du dioxyde de carbone (CO2) ultimement à partir d’un satellite. Le projet est en phase initiale et un démonstrateur de laboratoire de même qu’un instrument aéroportés sont en cours de développement ou fonctionnels. Le but du stage est de mettre en application l’expertise en interférométrie à deux peignes de l’Université Laval afin d’améliorer la qualité des mesures. Il s’agit en particulier de mettre en oeuvre certaines approches de traitement du signal, en particulier de correction de phase interférométrique, dans un contexte où le chatoiement (speckle) de la tache laser est problématique.

Enhancing the Explainability of Temporal Financial Data

Deep Learning has seen great success in recent years in application to high-dimensional data. In the advent of increased computability, the increase in accuracy of Deep Learning has surpassed traditional statistical methods. Consequently, the complexity of Deep Learning methods are not interpretable (black-box); therefore, are often dismissed in high-risk domains such as health care and finance. Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) aims to increase the interpretability of black-box models through explanations. In finance, forecasting is important for both the researchers and policymakers in financial economics, but the development of XAI for time-series models is limited and often the XAI methods do not take into account the aspect of time in explanations. Therefore, we propose to develop and implement a variant of the deep learning explainer Integrated Gradients to produce explanations for temporal data.

Building a Data Fluent Canadian Cultural Sector

21st century Canada requires a data fluent arts and culture sector. The cultural sectors and their funders must mobilize data to understand the impact and value of their efforts in Canada and abroad, and to improve these efforts. Building a Data Fluent Canadian Cultural Sector will identify existing data collection efforts in Canada, describe data types, collection methods and standards. It will establish who is currently undertaking cultural analytics research and what data they are collecting and producing, connect these researchers, and their data with efforts to build a common database, and encourage their use of such a database with the intention of coordinating significant and ongoing research. We will create a plan for an integrated database of cultural data and researchers; and create a prototype.

Understanding the Baseline and Changes in Canada’s Blue Economy Workforce

Canada is launching a new plan for its oceans, titled the “Blue Economy”, which is focused on economic development that will benefit Canadians equitably and protect the environment. This project is focused on understanding a baseline of who is part of Canada’s ocean industries, and create a monitoring tool to see if diverse Canadians benefit as the Blue Economy plan is implemented. Importantly, Blue Economy plans aim to aid in the economic benefits towards Indigenous people, and this research is focused on understanding how Blue Economy plans can best promote the wellbeing of Canada’s Indigenous people. The partner organization has a mandate to promote a diverse workforce in Canada’s ocean economy, and this research program would directly help the organization achieve that my understanding baseline characteristics and monitoring change.

Validation of the Canadian psychosocial rehabilitation competency document: A Delphi Study

Psychosocial rehabilitation follows the philosophy of “recovery-orientated practice”, centered around the idea of
maximizing wellbeing even while experiencing symptoms of mental illness. Psychosocial Rehabilitation (PSR)
Canada is the only organization with a competency document aimed to promote, standardize, and improve the
delivery of PSR in Canada. This document was last reviewed in 2017 and benefits from continuous validation to
reflect the changing sociocultural context of Canada. A validated competency document with clear criteria for good
quality PSR will encourage more mental healthcare providers to adopt this practice, ultimately benefitting all
Canadians who access health care. PSR Canada will also benefit from the growth and recognition of their services
by more stakeholders in the country. This study will use a Delphi design, which incorporates extensive input into
the final document from stakeholders across the country through interviews, focus groups, and surveys.

The Phone Oximeter, a Simple Mobile Device to Screen for Sleep Apnea in Children Year Two

The high prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) poses a serious threat to the healthy growth and development of many children. The lack of oxygen during sleep can lead to daytime sleepiness, growth failure, behavioural problems and developmental delay. Polysomnography (PSG), the gold standard to diagnose OSA is high in cost, requires a well-equipped sleep laboratory and overnight stay. The Phone Oximeter, is a mobile device that integrates a pulse oximeter with a cell phone. In addition to the blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), it provides a signal of changes in blood volume. The aim of this project is to develop an apnea-screening tool using the Phone Oximeter’s signals, to identify children with significant OSA, who would need a full PSG study, reducing waiting lists and costs. This portable, in-home device will cause less sleep disturbance, facilitate more natural sleep patterns, and provide the ability to monitor patients over multiple nights.

Implementation of parallel and artificial intelligence techniques to solve power systems in a faster and more efficient way

Nowadays, the electrical systems have thousands of nodes. To simulate this kind of systems electromagnetic transient programs (EMTP) are often used. One of the widely used commercial programs available is PSCAD, which can simulate large networks. However, these kinds of systems could impose an important computational burden, and use a considerable amount of time to be simulated. In this sense, the propose of this research is to implement and search for alternatives to accelerate the simulations of power systems, especially in PSCAD. To attain this objective, in the first part of the research different parallel computing techniques will be implemented, and if possible, improved. Later on, artificial intelligence algorithms will be used to find optimal simplified network equivalents of large systems, aiming to accelerate the simulations even further.

Quantum-key distribution with spatial multiplexing optical fibers

Encoding information in quantum states is the new era of communication known as quantum communication. Quantum key
distribution (QKD) is the building block of quantum communication making a distribution of a secret key between two parties. The
quantum states can be two-dimensions (qubit) or d-dimensions (qudit) quantum states defined in different degrees of freedom
(e.g., polarization, frequency, time). In this project, we generate qubits using an entangled single-photon source followed
by extension of the dimensions (d=3) via the orbital angular momentum (OAM) as a new degree of freedom generated by liquid
crystal polymer (LCP). The distribution of these quantum states should provide a more secure and robust quantum communication channel along with enabling higher information complexity.
