Understanding and Predicting Daily Shifts in Emotion with Machine Learning

Individuals’ mood can change on a moment-to-moment basis. Understanding and predicating changes in mood, however, is difficult. A Canadian technology company, called UpBeing, has developed a mobile app to help collect data on mood (among other data) multiple times in a given day. The proposed study will use cutting-edge machine learning techniques and data provided […]

Informative Art Simulations and Games for Improving Energy Awareness in the Home

While energy conservation in the home is an important part of reducing our ecological footprint most people do not understand or even realize how their energy consumption works and how they can manage it. In-home displays offer the opportunity to help become more aware, but often do not fit into a home’s aesthetics, typically relegated […]

Rich, Immersive AR/VR Communication

Face-to-face communication provides substantial benefits over traditional remote communication via video and voice: the expressivity of body language, spatial grounding in a common physical space, access to physical tools and objects, and much more. For many collaborative tasks, face-to-face communication is considered indispensable, yet meeting in person can be rendered infeasible by any number of […]

Comparing Security Frameworks for Operational Technology

Several popular OT security frameworks have been developed to help organizations protect their critical infrastructure and industrial control systems from cyber threats. Two of the most popular standards include ISA/IEC 62443 (formerly ISA 99) and NIST SP 800-82 Rev.2 (ICS Security Guide). The purpose of this project is to use an existing OT infrastructure to […]

AI-Driven Pneumothorax Detection in X-ray Imaging

This project aims to enhance the accuracy of identifying health issues in chest X-ray images. The team will develop a specialized tool, known as a “chest-tube detection model”, which will initially examine all X-rays to identify cases where patients have already received medical assistance, making it unnecessary to flag these cases. Subsequently, the remaining X-rays […]

FluidPlanet Digital Twins

FluidPlanet.org produces and publishes digital twins (virtual versions of real places) for academic, educational and enterprise use. By combining the latest technologies in mapping (GIS), sensors (IoT) and visualization (gaming), we create realistic looking and behaving simulations of real locations. These can then be populated with virtual people, animals and buildings to tell stories that […]

Quantum-enabled feature selection for metabolomic and biometric data analysis

Metabolomics is the study of the complete set of small molecules in the human body. Analyzing metabolomic and biometric data is critical in order to detect, predict, and simulate changes in the health conditions of a patient, providing the opportunity for preventive and personalized medicine. This is generally done using machine learning, but it is […]
