Les Principes pour l’investissement responsable (PRI) ont été établis en 2005 par l’Initiative financière du Programme des Nations Unies pour l’environnement dans le but de fournir un cadre permettant d’améliorer l’analyse des questions environnementales, sociales et de gouvernance (ESG) dans le processus d’investissement et d’aider les entreprises à adopter des pratiques responsables dans la gestion […]

Bloomberg recently reported that theft and embezzlement of cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ether, have become an annual USD $200 million business. Indeed, just between January 2021 and March 2022 investors have lost over US$1 billion in cryptocurrency scams according to the report by the US’s Federal Trade Commission. More than 46,000 people have lost […]

Les modèles d’apprentissage profonds ont révolutionné la vision par ordinateur. Cependant, ils requièrent une forte quantité de données annotées avec précision afin de pouvoir convenablement « apprendre » à résoudre une tâche donnée. En particulier, la segmentation sémantique, consistant à prédire la classe sémantique de chacun des pixels présents dans une image, est une tâche […]

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are cryptographic assets on a blockchain with unique identification codes and metadata that distinguish them from each other. Due to its vast usability in different industries, such as gaming, real estate, and art, many professionals believe it will be the future of trading. However, like any other new technology, it has issues […]

The aim of this project is to develop an application that can proactively protect users from identity theft and create awareness around safe digital practices. For this, we will be developing novel ways of extracting utility out of data and helping users to maintain a least-risk profile score. Most of the computations will be done […]

Réingénierie des plateformes de rapports marketing et d’alertes intelligentes. Entre autres ajout de nouvelle fonctionnalité quant à l’édition de widgets, mais surtout une toute nouvelle version de l’éditeur de widget de la plateforme.

Building software systems is a complex task. Teams of developers must gather and exchange large quantities of technical and conceptual information to build reliable systems. This transfer of knowledge is mainly supported by tangible documents that contain information deemed important for different contexts. However, determining what information is important is itself challenging. The importance should […]

We propose to develop computer vision technologies for recognizing 3D environment for augmented reality (AR) mobile games. Given an image/video taken captured a mobile device (e.g. iPad), we would like to be able to recognize some useful information about the 3D environment of the game player. For example, one of our goals is to recognize […]

In practical machine learning problems, it is important to understand impact of features on models’ predictions. Such an understanding helps not only better explain the black-box machine learning models but also enables their effective applications in business environment. The general model explanation approaches make an untenable assumption that the model’s features are uncorrelated, which can […]

This project aims to apply machine learning in the context of potato farming. By analyzing many previous spectrometer scans of potato plant leaves, models will be developed that can estimate the amount of nutrients in a potato plant based on a single scan. The models produced by this project will help offer a more scalable […]

The objective of this project is to explore the uses of Augmented Reality (AR), a technology that superimposes computer-generated animations, on a mobile user’s view of the real world, in the context of children’s gaming applications. These applications will allow children to experience a game as being directly tied to reality. Specifically, using for example […]

Le présent projet appartient au domaine de la représentation des connaissances et constitue un premier pas vers le développement d’outils informatiques en support au développement de dossiers de sécurité et d’audits de conformité reliés à la sécurité des TI. Il porte plus particulièrement sur la représentation formelle d’interprétations de requis de conformité reliés à la […]
