Supervised and Semi-supervised approaches to sample growing and online prediction of customer intent

The company collects survey data from websites which is combined with behavioural data from survey respondents. This combined data set is information rich but can be too sparse for modelling purposes in a straight forward supervised learning context. As such, on-going research concerns optimizing the process by which non-survey related behavioural data can be leveraged […]

Predicting Material Properties from Electronic Band Structures: Integrating Machine Learning with Computational Modeling Techniques

The project involves the development of a machine learning model which can predict targeted properties of materials from their band structure. Computational modeling methods, such as ab initio (quantum chemistry) calculations, Density Functional Theory and Molecular Dynamics, enable us to calculate properties of materials from their crystalline structure. The band structure is a representation of […]

AI-generated Pseudoplanars for Ventilation/Perfusion Scans

The objective of this project is to develop artificial intelligence (AI)-based solutions aimed at denoising ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) planar images for the detection of pulmonary embolism (PE). The denoising algorithm has the potential to solve two major limitations of V/Q scans: long acquisition times and currently insufficient techniques for generating pseudo-planar images from SPECT acquisitions. Our […]

Build Cross Platform Mobile application supporting various screen resolutions

Diversity among the mobile platforms requires an application developer to develop separate applications for each platform. Reason for this is the unique technological support and features that each platform comes embedded with. To use the features associated with any particular platform, we need to use the underlying SDK supported by that platform. Major market share […]

Electrotactile Tongue Display for Force Feedback during Robotic Teleoperation

This project, a collaborative effort between TU Munich and the University of Calgary, aims to use an innovative electrotactile tongue display system for robotic teleoperation in surgery. In robotic-assisted surgeries, surgeons lack the direct ‘touch’ feedback that traditional surgery offers, often leading to a reliance on visual cues for force application. This gap can affect […]
