Scientists need more and more computing resources to do research. At the same time, a huge amount of available computing resources is currently completely ignored in all the devices and computers we use to surf the Web. All that computing power could be used to make progress on research about cancer, climate change, epidemiology, etc. […]

The proposed research aims to target large-scale consumer-generated data to analyze, visualize, and make predictions out of. The data will be collected from the consumers to make assessments on their lifestyles, and will come in forms such as heart-rate variance, that is, being temporal data. Researchers with visual analytics background will apply new visualization techniques […]

La découpe virtuelle de corps mous viscoélastiques (tel qu’un organe du corps humain) en temps réel constitue un problème d’envergure dans les logiciels de simulation chirurgicale. Le projet consiste à développer un algorithme de découpe 3D en temps réel offrant un rendu visuel réaliste à l’utilisateur et un retour de force optimal d’un dispositif haptique […]

This cross-disciplinary project aims to investigate underlying philosophical questions in the acquisition, management and production of scientific big data. Big data analytics (BDA) continues to produce an overwhelming amount of information which can be challenging to make use of due to its size, density and complexity. BDA is ubiquitous in forecasting and decision making but […]

WebAssembly (WASM) is a new portable size and load-time efficient binary code format designed to serve as a compilation target for the web. WASM enables browsers to compile code bundles and run faster than existing Javascript. It will include both a binary notation, that compilers will produce, and a corresponding text notation, suitable for displaying […]

Web based anti-debug is a critical technology prevent dynamic attacks to web applications within browser environments. Irdeto has developed a set of essential anti-debug techniques that are used for projects of POC and products for protecting web applications. The research is to understand anti-debug techniques from the public domain, is developed in house, and will […]

The rise in adoption of online services for sensitive tasks such as banking and accessing public services, has led to increased security and data privacy requirements. Many institutions use third-party services for logging in and handling security. So you might enter a single username and password, connecting only once to access a number of different […]

Meta’s Bibliometric Intelligence is a service platform to provide automated and in-depth manuscript assessment to authors and publishers in biological science. This internship project is to develop a new version of Bibliometric Intelligence. The intern will apply state-of-art machine learning and natural language processing skills to improve its performance. Accurate assessment and profiling of manuscript […]

Firms meet legally established accounting rules by including notes in financial statements that essentially hide key information in plain sight. That is, they contain information necessary to understand the statements, but due to the volume of notes and arcane language may be uninterpretable by even lawyers. However, these notes may be interpretable by a software […]

Search and recommendations drive the majority of sales at KOBO. It is therefore critical to continually improve and tune these algorithms. Our project will explore several questions dealing with integrating information provided by users in order to optimize search and recommendation algorithms: how to integrate user-generated tags in order to enhance search (rather than simply […]

During the duration of the proposed project, the intern will become a member of the partner organization’s “Big Data” team, participating in all team activities, and completing research-oriented work for the team. The intern will complete research that will explore and improve upon previous methods of intelligently communicating with customers through personalized emails. This may […]

Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) adoption in livestock production landscape has been transformative and has led to a fundamental need for sophisticated data management and exchange solutions. Building an interoperable data management system requires an understanding of data context, stakeholders’ needs, data usage conditions, as well as contractual and legal requirements. Only through understanding the […]
