Accurately recommending items of interests is essential for users to improve their experience. To acquire better performance, a recommender system can utilize multiple sources of data and the social knowledge graph. This can lead to efficient use of information to improve the recommender system. By exploring the data and extract crucial features to feed to […]

De plus en plus de projets d’infrastructure sont réalisés entièrement par ordinateur. Bentley Systems développe plusieurs logiciels permettant la création, la revue et la visualisation de ces modèles 3D, sous forme de maillages (mesh) ou de modèles CAD/CAO. Bien que ces représentations offrent des possibilités inédites pour les experts, elles se révèlent difficiles à utiliser […]

Animated fluid effects based on physical simulation have been a staple part of visual effects industry. They are characterized by offline simulation and rendering that produces highfidelity dynamics and visuals. As the technology for computer games advances, the opportunity to create such effects in real-time as either a playback technique or dynamic simulation is becoming […]

Intact Corporation financière est le plus important fournisseur d’assurances multirisques au Canada en primes annuelles. Intact vise à offrir un service de réclamations accéléré à ses clients. Au moment d’ouvrir une réclamation, Intact demande d’ores et déjà à ses clients de fournir des images du véhicule qui permettent d’identifier préalablement la condition générale du véhicule. […]

In this project, we would like to study the problem of object manipulation in a real-world scenario. We assume three major settings in the environment – the object is non-rigid, oniy offline dataset is available and the input is high-dimensional images which are hard to be handled by classical control models. Recent successes in deep […]

The project revolves around reading and understanding students solution to various mathematical problems. We wish to analyse the work done by students and the solution to these problems and provide math checking capabilities to various types of problems. Furthermore, this project looks to construct a virtual tutor that can analyse students work and provide feedback […]

Dynamic pricing models create price by assessing total cost, demand, and timing to customize the price to the moment. The models enable both buyers and sellers to settle a price that is very custom to their specific needs. Bison Transport Inc. has a network model that monitors profit and a pricing engine that monitors margin. […]

Multi-object tracking has many uses cases in autonomous driving, robotics and security. Tracking is important as it allows us reason about the dynamic world and make actionable decisions based-off predicted object trajectories. As an example, in autonomous driving, not only the location of objects is important but also their predicted future trajectories are needed in […]

Surgical Safety Technologies aims to provide healthcare professionals with the opportunity to perform research in areas of surgical performance and education and implement evidence-based solutions to improve patient safety. Search on video content would an ideal functionality to assist with healthcare professionals’ research. This project uses computer vision model to rank the relevance of the […]

Veyetals online smartphone-based application that can be downloaded through the Apple Store or the Google Play Store. It uses Remote Photoplethysmography (rPPG) technique to extract Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) signal from a face video captured using smart phone camera, and then applies multiple computational algorithms to measure heart rate, heart rate variability, oxygen saturation, and […]

Physics-based simulation has been receiving a great deal of attention as it is of interest for various branches such as the film industry, computer game development, and biomedical research, etc. Especially for the professions that are interested in modeling creatures and producing correlated visual effects such as 3D animation, tissue simulation becomes a principled approach […]

Conversational experiences are becoming more prevalent in software applications – from Alexa and Google assistant to Siri and Cortana – though the quality degrades when the automated dialogue agent must refer to or recall specific information. These systems are often forgetful, nonsensical, contradictory, repetitive, or hallucinatory, which impacts the user experience. This project aims to […]
