A comprehensive genomic study for the virus SAR-Cov-2 itself and COVID-19 patient samples will be studies analyzed to understand the nature of the virus developments, and to find genomic biomarkers that helps in diagnosing and the treatment of the disease. We will try to understand the molecular network of the virus in the body and […]

SOTI has developed a software product called SOTI SNAP that allows anyone to create an app with no programming or technical knowledge. SOTI SNAP allows users to create apps by dragging and dropping widgets onto a canvas and connecting them together to create an app. With SOTI SNAP apps can be created in minutes and […]

As the COVID-19 pandemic complete eradication will at least take 2-3 years, putting the country under complete lockdown is an impractical solution. Hence, Computing and Data Analytics research group at Saint Mary’s University (SMU-CDA) proposes a collaboration with Agyle Intelligence to develop a complete framework using Data Analytics and Machine Learning that can help citizen, […]

COVID19 has accelerated shifts in the global energy market such that energy companies and banks may be impacted in the medium to long term. At the same time, the decarbonization of the world’s highest carbon sectors present opportunities for alternative energy carriers. For investors and policy makers it is important to understand the scope and […]

The project will employ three undergraduate coop students and one post-doctoral fellow to work with the MesoMat team to improve the sensing capabilities of the fiber technology that has been developed at MesoMat and develop robust production methods. MesoMat has developed a fiber-based sensor manufactured from plastics and nanoparticles. These materials change their resistance when […]

A person with COVID-19 can spread the disease to others. Therefore, it is crucially important to identify and isolate infected persons immediately to stop disease spreading. Contact tracing is one of the critical tools available to effectively break the chain of transmission and control outbreaks. Contact tracing is the process of identifying, assessing, and managing […]

COVID-19 outbreak has changed the world and forced majority of the population to lockdown and isolation. With the lockdowns easing, and things returning to the new normal, it is important to follow the isolation protocols such as social distancing and wearing of masks for containing the outbreak. While there is no denying the efficacy of […]

Your Doctors Online is an online smartphone-based application that allows registered patients to chat with experienced and board-certified doctors 24 hours and 7 days a week. Patients can chat, upload images or videos, and get immediate medical advice about a variety of health issues such as cold and flu, sexual health and dermatology avoiding the […]

This project explores 3D pose hand reconstruction using machine learning models with sensor data from innovative input devices. The goal is to propose an approach that provides real-time high fidelity hand reconstruction and understand how users perceive its quality to improve user experience and social interaction in AR/VR. The proposed methodology is to train a […]

The proposed research project will enable a patient’s family doctor or specialist or emergency room doctor to quickly view the patients’ healthcare data most important to view to help the patient at that time. For example, before a doctor prescribes a drug, they can quickly make sure it will not cause problems for the patient […]

Front-line clinicians have reported that different respiratory stiffness results in different COVID-19 patient conditions on ventilators. In this project, we test and improve NovaResp’s monitoring hardware and analyze the collected data for development of algorithms with focus on respiratory stiffness of patients with COVID-19. The resulting algorithms and monitoring device could lead to determine whether […]

This research project will aid in the creation of safe networks of wireless devices, such as security cameras. Computer software using artificial intelligence will watch the networks for problems with the devices or misuses of the networks. In particular, this project will discover ways to ensure that the networks are compatible with the right kind […]
