Plastic has become ubiquitous in our daily lives, finding its way into a wide variety of products and applications. However, the extensive use of plastic, coupled with improper disposal and inadequate recycling practices, has significant economic and environmental consequences, posing a severe threat to our planet. In Canada alone, a staggering 3 million tons of […]

An important component of modern video games is the non-player character (NPC), moving entities in-game that are not controlled by a human, which may cooperate with, oppose, or otherwise interact with the player. For an NPC to interact with the game word it must often perform complex tasks that are difficult to program explicitly. Research […]

The rapid evolution of video resolution has significantly increased the video bitrate requirement, making data transfer a challenging task for data-intensive applications like video conferencing, cloud gaming and game streaming. With the rise of machine learning, studies have shown the potential of embedding conventional video compression algorithms with AI-based methods to enhance their performance. This […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

Modern compilers have increasingly large number of complex optimizations to meet the prevalent demand of using Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) in gaming and other applications. Optimization passes are program and architecture depend. Therefore, selecting the best optimizations in the most optimal ordering is a difficult task. While leveraging ML methods in compiler […]

AR/VR may be the next frontier for online human communications and interactions. The ability to produce photorealistic avatars dramatically improves the feeling of immersion and connection in applications utilizing AR/VR. However, current methods of face capture are time-consuming and involve expensive cameras and sensors. In this project, we explore deep learning methods for generating face […]

This research project aims to improve the performance of GPUs, which are important for running machine learning algorithms. GPUs are a fundamental architecture in machine learning, and this project will use transformer-based models to learn the program structure of GPU kernels for various downstream tasks like performance projection and metrics such as GPU utilization. The […]

This research project, a collaboration between ServiceNow and ÉTS Montréal, aims to improve generative AI (e.g. artificial intelligence models that learn to generate data), which can impact various creative and knowledge-based industries like graphic design, content creation, and research. The project aims to create advanced generative models that can generate a variety of data types, […]

The high-level goal is to develop technology to enable more C++ applications to run well on many-core architectures such as recent AMD CPUs, GPUs, and combinations thereof (APUs). We expect to improve the capabilities of compilers like clang/LLVM to identify task-level parallelization opportunities that are not able to be identified today.

In recent years, weather has been recognized as an important factor that can have a significant impact on consumer behavior in certain industries. Predictive models that incorporate weather data can help industries to adjust their inventory and marketing strategies to optimize sales. This research project focuses on using machine learning and data analytics to determine […]
