We will assess the quality and suitability of blood and blood-derived products using a fast and economical approach that combines measurements of molecules in the blood product identified by their weight and computational approaches to make sense of all the data generated. Normal blood products have thousands of small molecules in common. By monitoring a […]

The quest for building an artificial intelligence (A.I.) that is general and able to solve multiple tasks, as humans do, has experienced a growing interest in the last few years. Current A.I. systems can communicate with humans and provide sensible answers and ideas in the form of text. However, if we expect A.I. systems to […]

Dans un marché très compétitif comme celui de l’assurance, estimer la durée de l’association potentielle entre un nouveau client et la compagnie est un enjeu majeur. Ceci permet à l’entreprise de cibler de futurs clients potentiels qui seront plus susceptibles d’augmenter sa rentabilité en répartissant les coûts dus à l’émission du contrat sur une plus […]

Ethical data governance practices continue to shift with the emergence of digital technologies like blockchain and artificial intelligence. As these technologies begin to integrate more with climate and nature-based solutions, unique implications appear around data collection, handling, and use. Established concerns about privacy, consent, and data transparency present themselves, along with new considerations where information […]

The overall goal of this internship is to improve the query capacity of the Informatica Data Vault data management system. In particular, better support for join operations, that combine the information of various tables of data warehousing appliactions, will be provided. For that, a specialized join index will be designed, developed and evaluated on standard […]

The talent acquisition process is crucial for organizations to meet their business objectives. However, traditional methods often have biases and inefficiencies, such as a shortage of qualified candidates, time-consuming processes, and unconscious biases. The proposed solution, known as “ATAP,” leverages Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, a Technical Assessment Chatbot (TAC), and data […]

This project aims to take advantage of the blockchain ecosystem to detect fake news. This is done by designing a rating system that works on the blockchain network through which a group of verified reviewers will rate the news prior to broadcasting. News with inadequate verification from reviewers will be marked as ‘fake’. Afterward, the […]

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) represent an emerging technology, and initially, individuals may feel less confident in autonomous driving systems without human drivers. A proper communication medium between passengers and AVs can facilitate a safe and reliable experience. Older adults are expected to be one of the largest user cohorts of AVs as they support aging in […]

Have you heard about DALL·E 2, Midjourney or Stable Diffusion? Or perhaps you were fooled by the picture of the pope in a puffy white coat, or by some other deepfake memes involving stars and/or politicians? Well, good or bad, these feats are made possible by a technology called generative diffusion models. Although they are […]

The Town of Vermilion is an urban municipality located 200km east of Edmonton, with approximately 3,900 residents and a staff of approximately 100 positions including seasonal and casual (eg: fire fighters.) As a small municipality with limited resources our systems are in need of modernization, and innovation in any area is of great benefit to […]
